Type 5 Diabetes? Here's What That Actually Means

The world of diabetes research has taken a major step forward with the official recognition of type 5 diabetes, a form of diabetes linked to malnutrition. First acknowledged by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2025, type 5 diabetes is not just a new name; it’s a call to action.

This condition has long gone underdiagnosed and misclassified, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Now, with growing awareness and research, it’s essential to understand what type 5 diabetes is, how it differs from other types, what symptoms to look out for, and how it can be prevented and treated, especially through natural methods.
