What does your A1C number tell you?
• A1C is an indication of your average blood glucose level over the past 2-3 months.
• For most people with diabetes, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends that your A1C be under 7%.(1)
• A 1% point reduction in A1C may lower the risk of complications by up to 40%.(2)*
• Remember that your A1C is your "big picture" measurement. Don't use it for daily blood glucose measurement.
