What is HbA1c?
HbA1c is referred to by its alternate name, because it involves glucose molecules attaching to hemoglobin. Glucose in the blood circulates because it comes from the food we eat. When the body can’t use glucose that comes in from the bloodstream very well. Glucose sticks to everyone’s hemoglobin, but people who are diabetic too often have high blood sugar levels.
An elevated HbA1c predicts a diabetic complications. Since late complications of diabetes are quite common, to prevent them you have to monitor your HbA1c level and accordingly take timely corrective measures.
What is an HbA1c Test?
You get a routine blood test HbA1c test to see how your average blood glucose measures compared to other people’s levels. The test is particularly vital for diabetic patients because it provides information about how effective diabetes management has been.
This HbA1c test reflects average glucose level over the past three months. With this extended timeframe, diabetic patients can change their meds during comprehensive insights.
To monitor blood sugar levels of diabetic patients, they are tested every 2 to 3 months for an HbA1C test. When our glucose increases, the hemoglobin binds to increases too, and since our bodies are constantly renewing its hemoglobin every 2 to 3 months, we are also retaining the record of how much glucose is bound to hemoglobin for this same amount of time. A high A1C means your A1C is too high because if there’s too much glucose attached to the hemoglobin cells. Your A1C will be normal if the amount of glucose is normal.
