Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a major health problem among adolescent girls, often caused by low iron intake and poor absorption. Amaranthus tricolor (red spinach) is a local vegetable known to contain high levels of iron, vitamin C, and antioxidants that support iron absorption. This literature review aimed to analyze the effect of Amaranthus tricolor on hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls. The literature search followed the PRISMA flow using databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, SpringerLink, and Science Direct for studies published between 2015–2025. Inclusion criteria were full-text articles in Indonesian or English with randomized controlled trial or quasi-experimental designs involving adolescent girls aged 10–18 years. Four studies met the eligibility criteria. Results showed that administration of red spinach extract, tea, or capsule forms significantly increased hemoglobin levels. One study reported, while others demonstrated higher hemoglobin improvements in the intervention group compared to controls receiving Fe tablets (p < 0.05). Overall, red spinach effectively improves hemoglobin levels through its iron, vitamin C, and antioxidant content, indicating its potential as a functional food for anemia prevention among adolescents. Further high-quality studies are recommended to determine optimal dosage, form, and duration of intervention.

Abstract

Maternal anxiety during labor remains a significant psychological condition that may adversely affect labor progression, pain perception, and overall childbirth outcomes. Non-pharmacological interventions, particularly music therapy, have been increasingly recognized as complementary strategies to improve maternal psychological well-being. This literature review aims to examine the effectiveness of classical and instrumental music, including the style of Kenny G, in reducing anxiety among pregnant women during labor. A systematic literature review was conducted by searching peer-reviewed articles published between 2018 and 2025 in databases including PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Keywords used included “music therapy,” “labor anxiety,” “pregnancy,” “childbirth,” and “relaxation music.” The findings indicate that exposure to calming instrumental music is associated with reduced anxiety levels, decreased physiological stress markers (such as heart rate and cortisol), and improved maternal relaxation during labor. The slow tempo and smooth melodic structure characteristic of instrumental jazz and contemporary classical music, including Kenny G’s compositions, are associated with activation of the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and emotional stability. Overall, music therapy is a safe, low-cost, and non-invasive intervention that can be integrated into midwifery care to enhance maternal comfort during childbirth.
