Pre-Diabetes (HBA1C) Test
Pre-Diabetes (HBA1C) Test
The Pre-Diabetes (HbA1c) Test is a quick and reliable way to identify whether your blood sugar levels are in the pre-diabetic range—an early warning sign that your body is not processing glucose effectively. Pre-diabetes often develops silently, without obvious symptoms, yet it significantly increases your risk of progressing to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. This test measures your HbA1c (glycated haemoglobin) levels, which reflect your average blood glucose over the past 2 to 3 months, offering a long-term view of your metabolic health.
According to Diabetes UK, over 13.6 million people in the UK are at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, with many unaware of their condition. The NHS and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommend HbA1c testing as a first-line tool for identifying individuals at risk of type 2 diabetes or already in the pre-diabetic range. Research from University College London (UCL) has shown that lifestyle changes made during the pre-diabetic phase can dramatically reduce the risk of developing full-blown diabetes by over 50%.
Whether you're experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, increased thirst, or unexplained weight changes—or simply want to take control of your long-term health—the Pre-Diabetes (HbA1c) Test provides essential insights. Early detection allows for lifestyle adjustments and intervention before more serious health complications arise.
What Does This Test For?
This test measures Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) to assess your average blood sugar levels over the past 2 to 3 months. It is used to detect whether you are in the pre-diabetic range, meaning your blood glucose is consistently elevated but not yet high enough to be classified as type 2 diabetes. By identifying this early stage of impaired glucose control, the test helps you take preventative action before more serious health issues develop. It is also used to monitor long-term glucose control in people with diagnosed diabetes. HbA1c is considered the gold standard for identifying early metabolic changes and plays a key role in reducing your risk of complications related to high blood sugar.
