  According to the Canadian Center for Disease Control:  
    
  "A normal A1C level is below 5.7%, a level of 5.7% to 6.4% indicates  
  prediabetes, and a level of 6.5% or more indicates diabetes. Within the  
  5.7% to 6.4% prediabetes range, the higher your A1C, the greater your  
  risk is for developing type 2 diabetes."  
    
  I'm a diagnosed Type 2, and consistenly get readings of 6.6 - 7.1 -- the  
  doctor is quite happy with those readings (I'm on twice daily oral  
  metformin).  
    
    
  Cheers... Dallas
