Your Creatinine value of 1.07 mg/dl is normal. A good Creatinine is usually between 0.6 and 1.3 mg/dl.
It is healthy to keep creatinine levels within a normal range because elevated levels are indications of kidney disease. Low levels may mean the person is malnourished or ill.

Useful Information
Creatinine is a substance that is a by-product of the breakdown of an amino acid called creatine. This breakdown is a result of the normal stresses on the muscles, so everybody has some level of creatinine in their blood. The bloodstream carries creatinine to the kidneys, and the kidneys help to excrete it via the urine. The normal levels of creatinine are not universal but depend on the personâs age, gender, race and size. Normal blood levels are 0.6 to 1.2 milligrams per deciliter in men and and 0.5 to 1.1 dL in women. However, the levels in a person who has only one kidney may be as high as 1.8 or 1.9. A baby who has a level of 2.0 or higher mostly likely has a serious kidney disease. The same is true if the levels go to 5.0 or higher in an adult.
