Inclusion: Adult patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D) or drug-induced diabetes; Patients at nutritional risk according to MUST or presenting malnutrition according to GLIM criteria; Patients requiring a diabetes-specific oral nutritional supplement (ONS) that is high-calorie, high-protein, and contains soluble fiber in real-world clinical practice, and who have been prescribed such a supplement within the previous 7 days; Patients able to provide informed consent and complete the study questionnaires.
Exclusion: Patients currently receiving or expected to receive other types of nutritional interventions involving supplements (oral or otherwise) or non-conventional feeding methods (e.g., feeding tubes); Patients expected to undergo any surgical intervention or require hospitalization due to a condition unrelated to the study during the study period; Patients with other conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with adherence to the intervention or with study procedures; Patients with a history of metabolic/endocrine diseases (other than diabetes) or any other condition causing liver or kidney failure, defined as ALT > 3x ULN or eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m², and according to the investigator's judgment; Patients participating in other studies or clinical trials related to malnutrition, or who, in the investigator's opinion, may alter the course of the study.
