Abstract

The prevalence of anemia is estimated at 9% in developed countries and 43% in developing countries. According to Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) data from the Republic of Indonesia Ministry of Health's Research and Development Agency in 2018, the prevalence of anemia in adolescent girls was 32%. Iron supplementation is an Indonesian government policy for treating anemia. Several studies have been carried out on herbal plants as an alternative to iron supplements, one of which is the consumption of dates. Dates contain high levels of iron and can be used as an alternative to iron supplements. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of giving dates on hemoglobin levels in anemic adolescents. This research uses a Systematic Literature Review, by searching for articles from Google Scholar. The research results found that 3 articles showed an average increase in hemoglobin levels of more than 1 gr/dL and 3 other articles showed an average increase in hemoglobin levels of less than 1 gr/dL. The conclusion of this research is that dates can increase hemoglobin levels in teenagers who experience anemia due to menstruation. Dates contain iron and vitamin C which play a role in the formation of hemoglobin so that it can increase hemoglobin levels.
