The term HbA1c refers to glycated haemoglobin. It develops when haemoglobin, a protein within red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout your body, joins with glucose in the blood, becoming βglycatedβ. By measuring glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), clinicians are able to get an overall picture of what our average blood sugar levels have been over a period of weeks/months. For people with diabetes this is important as the higher the HbA1c, the greater the risk of developing diabetes-related complications. HbA1c is also referred to as haemoglobin A1c or simply A1c.
Total cholesterol refers to the overall amount of cholesterol present in the blood. It includes both high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (often referred to as βgoodβ cholesterol) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (βbadβ cholesterol).
