Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and gout arthritis are increasingly prevalent, particularly among rural communities. The onset of NCDs is largely preventable. A community service program in Matanauwe Village, Buton Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, aimed to perform health screenings (anthropometry, blood glucose, cholesterol, and uric acid) and to provide nutrition education as measures for early detection and prevention of NCDs. A total of 48 participants attended the program. The intervention combined anthropometric screening, nutrition education, and demonstrations of healthy food preparation. Results showed that some participants had blood glucose, cholesterol, and uric acid levels above normal ranges, and exhibited varied nutritional statuses that may increase NCD risk. Nutrition education and healthy cooking demonstrations positively impacted community knowledge. This community service activity highlights the importance of routine screening and sustained nutrition education at the village level
