Correct option is A
HbA1C (Glycated Hemoglobin) measures average blood sugar levels over 2-3 months. A normal HbA1C level is below 5.7%, while 6.5% or above indicates diabetes. Levels between 5.7% and 6.4% indicate prediabetes.
Explanation of Each Option:
· Less than 6.0%: Correct answer; a normal range for healthy individuals.
· 6.5% to 7.0%: Indicates diabetes; people with diabetes should aim to keep HbA1C below 7%.
· 7.0% to 8.0%: Higher than recommended levels, associated with poor blood sugar control.
· Less than 3.0%: Too low, which may indicate severe anemia or other metabolic disorders.
