[QUOTE="douglas99, post: 708345, member: 38028"] The blog has some interesting information. 'that as A1c rises out of the 5% range the risk for cardiovascular disease starts to rise steeply, Which is in line with the median of a normal population being 5.6%, and above that being an out of normal range (just) The blog then goes on to make a great leap though, which seems to have no substance. 'Ideally an A1c near 5% is best,' Which I suspect is where we have come into this thread, why aim for a target lower than the average 'healthy' population, and indeed is it actually beneficial, or does it have it's own risks?
