HbA1c can capture chronic glucose elevation that fasting glucose testing may miss. A1C is used in the article as a marker of blood sugar improvement from Pendulum Glucose Control. A customer case reported an A1C decrease from 10 to 6 after more than a year using Pendulum Glucose Control while working with a doctor. Higher HGI was associated with reduced mortality at all time horizons in unadjusted and partially adjusted models. The article describes an A1C target near 5.0 as a sign that insulin resistance is decreasing. HbA1c is described as more informative than a single fasting glucose measurement because it captures post-meal spikes. The article says official A1c thresholds are administrative cut-offs rather than biological boundaries. A1C is more informative than a fasting glucose test because it reveals patterns over an extended window rather than a single snapshot. A1c is presented as more reliable than a single glucose reading because it captures a stable average despite fluctuations. The article identifies 4.8 to 5.1 as the optimal A1c target range. An HbA1c below 5.3% is classified as optimal and insulin sensitive in the article. An HbA1c of 5.7% to 6.4% is classified as…
