   Normal A1C for people without diabetes is below 5.6 percent, Dr. Peterson says. Levels between 5.7 percent and 6.5 percent suggest prediabetes, and an A1C of 6.5 percent or higher puts you in the ...

   In the blood, there is a molecule called hemoglobin which carries oxygen to the cells. Glucose can attach itself to this molecule and if the BG is consistently high, the value of the A1c will go up. This test, unlike the other tests, is measured as a percentage because the test measure the proportion of all the hemoglobin that has glucose attached.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycated_hemoglobin

   Measuring glycated hemoglobin assesses the effectiveness of therapy by monitoring long-term serum glucose regulation. A1c is a weighted average of blood glucose levels during the life of the red blood cells (117 days for men and 106 days in women [18]). Therefore, glucose levels on days nearer to the test contribute substantially more to the ...

   Healthcare providers can also monitor someone's hemoglobin A1C levels which reflect the average blood sugar over the last three months. [48] The American Diabetes Association recommends a goal of keeping hemoglobin A1C levels under 7% for most adults and 7.5% for children. [48] [49]

   For older adults with diabetes, having a more stable hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level over time may be associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer disease and dementia, a new study finds.

9. Hemoglobin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemoglobin

   A variant hemoglobin, called fetal hemoglobin (HbF, α 2 γ 2), is found in the developing fetus, and binds oxygen with greater affinity than adult hemoglobin. This means that the oxygen binding curve for fetal hemoglobin is left-shifted (i.e., a higher percentage of hemoglobin has oxygen bound to it at lower oxygen tension), in comparison to ...
