How does HbA1c help diagnose prediabetes?

HbA1c is an important tool for diagnosing prediabetes, a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not yet high enough to be classified as diabetes. An HbA1c result between 5.7% and 6.4% indicates prediabetes. Identifying prediabetes early allows for lifestyle changes that can prevent the progression to Type 2 diabetes. Regular HbA1c testing, combined with dietary modifications, exercise, and weight management, can help lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of developing diabetes. Early intervention is key to preventing long-term complications.
