Hba1c Test

HbA1C Test Overview

The HbA1c test, or the Glycated Hemoglobin test, is a valuable test used for measuring average blood glucose levels over the past two to three months. Sugar in your blood attaches to hemoglobin, a protein in your red blood cells. When your blood sugar levels rise, more hemoglobin gets coated with sugar. An A1C test checks the percentage of your red blood cells that have this sugar-coated hemoglobin. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends that diabetic patients should take this test four times a year.
