Abstract

Anemia has a high long-term risk to the health of adolescent girls, such as fatigue, poor concentration, and decreased cognitive abilities, which can lead to decreased academic achievement and participation in school activities. Anemia during adolescence can even increase the risk of complications in future pregnancies, which can lead to increased maternal and infant mortality rates. Based on data from the Ministry of Health's Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) in 2018, 26.8% of children aged 5-14 years suffered from anemia and 32% aged 15-24 years. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevention of anemia in adolescent girls through balanced nutrition. The method used was a scoping review. Search terms used in articles such as "Adolescent" OR "Adolescent girls") AND "Anemia" AND ("Prevention of anemia in adolescent girls through balanced nutrition"). The databases used in the article search were Pubmed, Google Scholar, Scinet Direct, and ProQuest. Ten articles have identified anemia prevention in adolescent girls through balanced nutrition. Prevention can be achieved through proper daily food and beverage consumption, supplemented with iron supplementation tablets according to the government's recommended dosage. Factors contributing to anemia in adolescent girls include low levels of education among adolescents and their parents, parental income, poor nutrition, failure to consume iron tablets, and poor nutritional quality.
