Diabetes Calculators — HbA1c, BMI Risk, Carb Counter | Living Diabetes

Free, evidence-based calculators for everyday diabetes decisions. Each tool is built on the standard formulas used by NICE, the ADA, and major clinical guidelines, with clear interpretation alongside the result. No sign-up. No data stored — everything runs in your browser.

Main calculators

HbA1c → eAG Converter Convert HbA1c (% or mmol/mol) to estimated average glucose in mg/dL or mmol/L. Bidirectional. Uses the ADAG study formula. Includes diagnostic ranges. BMI & Diabetes Risk Calculate BMI and your individual type 2 diabetes risk, with ethnicity-aware NICE PH46 thresholds. Includes optional waist circumference for sharper accuracy. Carb & Bolus Calculator Build a meal from a 100+ food database, see total carbs, fibre, net carbs, protein. Optional bolus insulin estimate using your I:C ratio and correction factor.

Quick-reference mini-calculators

Glucose Unit Converter mmol/L ↔ mg/dL — quick conversion with interpretation. Useful when reading guidelines, US vs UK studies, or comparing CGM displays. eGFR Calculator Kidney function from creatinine, using the 2021 CKD-EPI race-free equation. NICE / NHS / KDIGO recommended. Includes CKD staging. Time-in-Range & GMI CGM average → Glucose Management Indicator (HbA1c-equivalent). Population-specific TIR targets. Battelino 2019 international consensus.

How to use these tools well

Calculators are screening and estimation tools, not diagnoses or prescriptions. The HbA1c converter, BMI tool, glucose unit converter, eGFR calculator, and time-in-range estimator are safe to use on your own — they help you understand a number you’ve been given. The carb & bolus calculator is intended as a learning aid: never use it to set or change insulin doses without your diabetes team’s input.
