The A1C test is a common blood test used to diagnose type 1 and type 2
diabetes and then to gauge how well you're managing your diabetes.The
A1C test result reflects your average blood sugar level for the past two to
three months. Specifically, the A1C test measures what percentage of your
hemoglobin — a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen — is coated
with sugar (glycated). The higher your A1C level, the poorer your blood
sugar control and the higher your risk of diabetes complications. For
someone who doesn't have diabetes, a normal A1C level can range from
, 4.5 to 6 percent. When the A1C test is used to diagnose diabetes, an A1C
level of 6.5 percent or higher on two separate tests indicates you have
diabetes. A result between 5.7 and 6.4 percent is considered prediabetes
