Abstract

University students are a productive age group vulnerable to obesity due to low dietary fiber intake, highlighting the need for functional food innovations that improve fiber consumption while maintaining consumer acceptability. This study aimed to analyze the effect of Eucheuma cottonii seaweed flour substitution on the crude fiber content and organoleptic properties of chicken meatballs as an alternative high-fiber snack. This experimental study employed a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatment groups (P0, P1, P2, and P3). Organoleptic evaluation was conducted involving 25 student panelists in May 2025, while proximate analysis included moisture, ash, protein, fat, crude fiber, and carbohydrate contents. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and SPSS. The results showed that the P2 formulation (10 g seaweed flour) achieved the highest acceptability scores for color, aroma, texture, and taste (p<0.05). Crude fiber content increased from 2.72% to 4.20%, accompanied by increased ash and carbohydrate contents and reduced moisture, protein, and fat levels. Substitution with 10 g of Eucheuma cottonii seaweed flour has the potential to improve the nutritional quality and consumer acceptability of chicken meatballs. Further studies should evaluate shelf life, physical characteristics, and other nutritional components.

Abstract

Adolescent girls are vulnerable to anemia due to increased iron requirements during growth. If untreated, this condition may impair concentration, immunity, and productivity. This study aimed to develop a healthy snack in the form of steamed sponge cake made from red bean flour with date substitution to prevent anemia in adolescent girls. This experimental study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five formulations and involved 25 female adolescents aged 12–14 as panelists. Data were collected through organoleptic testing and nutritional analysis using ANOVA and One-Sample T-Test. Results showed that formulation F2 (120 g wheat flour, 45 g red bean flour, 30 g dates) was most preferred and contained 6.7 mg of iron per 100 g. Consuming 100 g of F2 cake could fulfill 89.3% of the daily iron requirement. Conclusion: Red bean flour steamed cake with dates has the potential to be a nutritious and acceptable functional snack for adolescent girls. Further research is recommended to replicate nutrient analysis and consider large-scale production as a nutritional intervention for anemia prevention.

Abstract

Hypertension is a common non-communicable disease among the elderly and a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. The increasing number of hypertension cases among the elderly at Gedong Air Public Health Center highlights the need for research on the impact of fat and sodium intake on hypertension incidence. This study aimed to determine the relationship between fat and sodium intake and hypertension status among elderly patients at Gedong Air Public Health Center in 2025. This research employed a cross-sectional design with a quantitative observational approach. A total of 72 elderly respondents were selected using consecutive sampling. Data on fat and sodium intake were collected using the SQ-FFQ questionnaire, while blood pressure was measured using a sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate (Chi-square) tests. The results showed that most respondents were aged 70–79 years (44.4%), male (51.4%), and had a family history of hypertension (52.8%). A total of 63.9% of respondents had hypertension, 61.1% had insufficient fat intake, and 68.1% had high sodium intake. Bivariate analysis revealed no significant relationship between fat intake and hypertension (p=0.530), but a significant relationship between sodium intake and hypertension (p=0.013). It can be concluded that high sodium intake is associated with hypertension among the elderly. Recommended, public health education on sodium reduction is essential as a preventive effort, especially through nutritional interventions and sustainable health promotion at the primary care level.

Abstract

Hypertension is a global health problem with an increasing prevalence, including in South Lampung Regency. One of its main causes is modifiable risk factors such as excessive sodium intake and psychological stress. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sodium intake and stress levels with the incidence of hypertension in the outpatient unit of UPTD Talang Jawa Health Center. This research employed a cross-sectional design with a total sample of 37 respondents aged 18–65 years, selected using a consecutive sampling technique. Data collection was conducted from May to June 2025 using a Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and blood pressure measurements with a sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test with a significance level of 5%. The results showed that the prevalence of hypertension was 73%, with 40.5% of respondents having high sodium intake and 48.6% experiencing severe stress. A significant relationship was found between sodium intake and hypertension (p = 0.002), as well as between stress levels and hypertension (p = 0.001). In conclusion, high sodium intake and severe stress are significantly associated with hypertension. It is recommended that health centers strengthen nutrition education and stress management to prevent hypertension.

Abstract

Wasting remains a major public health problem in Indonesia. In Bandar Lampung City, the prevalence of wasting reached 8.4% in 2023, and in the working area of Kotakarang Public Health Center, it has continued to increase from 8.2% (2022) to 10.9% (2024). This study aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge, parenting patterns, and infectious diseases with the incidence of wasting among children under five. This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design and was conducted from June 7–28, 2025, in the working area of Kotakarang Public Health Center. The population consisted of 1,281 children aged 19–60 months, with 112 samples selected using stratified sampling. Data on knowledge, parenting patterns, and infectious diseases were collected through questionnaires, while wasting was assessed using anthropometric measurements. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square test. The results showed significant relationships between knowledge (p = 0.001), parenting patterns (p = 0.002), and infectious diseases (p = 0.001) with wasting incidence. Children whose mothers had low knowledge, poor parenting, or a history of infectious disease were at higher risk of wasting. Infectious diseases showed the strongest association (OR = 25.5).In conclusion, improving maternal knowledge, enhancing parenting practices, and preventing infectious diseases are essential to reduce wasting. Recommended: the health center should strengthen education, screening, counseling, and home visits focusing on nutrition, sanitation, and hygiene.
