Blood Sugar Insight through Red Blood Cell Turnover

Damage from sugar to red blood cells is reflected in hemoglobin A1C, representing the past 3-4 months of blood sugar control.

Red blood cells need to survive 3-4 months for an accurate representation of blood sugar status. Research shows a negative correlation between red blood cell turnover rate and hemoglobin A1c levels.
