Abstract

Background: Nutritional problems among school-aged children in Indonesia remain characterized by stunting alongside increasing overweight and obesity.School lunch programs are expected to support children’s nutrient intake, but their relationship with nutritional status remains unclear. Objective: To analyze the correlation between school lunch nutrient adequacy, daily nutrient intake, and the nutritional status of elementary school students. Methods: An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 44 students in grades 4–6 at SD Plus Nurul Aulia, Cimahi City, in September 2025. Data were collected through interviews, 2×24-hour food recall to assess daily intake, two-day food weighing to assess school lunch intake, and anthropometric measurements. Nutritional status was assessed using height-for-age (HAZ) and body mass index-for-age (BAZ).Correlation analysis was performed using Pearson or Spearman tests according to data distribution. Results: The prevalence of stunting was 9.09%, while overweight and obesity reached 36.36%.The mean adequacy of daily intake relative to the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) was 90.68% for energy, 122.42% for protein, 79.73% for fat, 88.30% for carbohydrates, and 143.63% for iron. The mean adequacy of school lunch relative to daily RDA was 83.28% for energy, 109.16% for protein, 62.89% for fat, 86.11% for carbohydrates, and 109.33% for iron. No significant correlation was found between daily intake or school lunch intake and HAZ or BAZ (p>0.05). The highest correlations for daily intake with HAZ were observed for iron (r=0.269;p=0.077) and energy (r=0.234; p=0.127). Conclusion: Neither school lunch nutrient adequacy nor daily nutrient intake was significantly correlated with students’ nutritional status.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) among pregnant women remains a public health problem in Indonesia because it increases the risk of low birth weight, preterm birth, and stunting. Prevention efforts require the active involvement of Posyandu cadres as frontline community health workers. This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres in providing nutrition education, measuring Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC), and conducting early detection of pregnant women at risk of CED. The program was implemented through training and mentoring activities involving 15 cadres from Posyandu Pandan Wangi RW 25, Cibeureum Village, South Cimahi District, Cimahi City. Evaluation was conducted using pre-tests and post-tests to assess knowledge, while skills were evaluated through direct observation using a checklist before and after the training. The results showed that the average knowledge score increased from 56.3 to 87.3. The average MUAC measurement skill score improved from 4.27 to 6.00 out of six assessed indicators, while nutrition education skill scores increased from 3.80 to 6.00. The achievement rate for MUAC measurement skills increased from 71.1% to 100%, whereas nutrition education skills increased from 63.3% to 100%. Training and mentoring activities for Posyandu cadres showed an increase in cadre capacity related to the prevention of KEK in pregnant women.
