๐จ BREAKING NEWS: A new form of diabetes โ Type 5, has been officially recognised.โฃ

Unlike Type 1 or 2, Type 5 is caused by chronic malnutrition, especially in childhood. These individuals are often young, thin, and overlooked.
Their pancreas simply never developed enough to produce the insulin they need.
๐ฉโโ๏ธ As a dietitian, this is a wake-up call: nutrition in early life truly shapes health outcomes for life.

๐ข Letโs raise awareness.
โก๏ธ Share this with parents, caregivers, and educators.
