ENCORE: Clinical Focus: Hemoglobin A1c, what is it, and why does it matter? Part 1
October 11, 2022
HemoglobinA1c (HbA1c) has been touted as one of the most important blood tests you can get. It reveals how well you’re controlling your blood sugar.

Why could that be detrimental to patients? What are some of the sources of inaccuracy in HbA1c? What other tests shed light on HbA1c results? Which nutraceutical has been shown to improve HbA1c?
