Eag/a1c conversion calculator ada is recommending the use of a new term in diabetes management, estimated average glucose, or eag. health care providers can now report a1c results to patients using the same units (mg/dl or mmol/l) that patients see routinely in blood glucose measurements.. Normal blood sugar ranges in healthy non-diabetics. for a person without any type of diabetes, blood sugar levels are generally between 70 to 130 mg/dl depending on the time of day and the last time they ate a meal. newer theories about non-diabetic blood sugar levels have included post-meal blood sugar levels as high as 140 mg/dl.. For the fda and many payers, a1c is currently the “gold standard” used to assess diabetes therapy – it reflects average blood glucose levels over a two-to-three-month period, and in turn, the long-term risk of complications from high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). an a1c of less than 6.5% or 7% is the goal for most people with diabetes..
