Abstract

Background: Instant porridge is a type of processed food that does not require cooking in its preparation.  The use parboiled rice, mocaf flour, and red spinach in instant porridge production offers a viable alternative for developing nutrient-dense and antioxidant-rich processed foods. Parboiled rice, a modified rice variant, is selected for its low glycemic index and high nutritional value. Mocaf flour, a gluten-free alternative, is used to enhance the product's nutritional profile, while red spinach is added to boost the antioxidant content of the instant porridge. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the proximate composition and evaluate the antioxidant activity of instant porridge. Methods: The instant porridge was formulated with a composition of 70% parboiled rice, 30% mocaf flour, and 2% red spinach. Proximate analysis was performed to determine the moisture, ash, protein, fat, and carbohydrate content, following the methods outlined in the AOAC 1995 guidelines. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay to assess the porridge's free radical scavenging capacity. Results: The instant porridge produced was found to have a high nutritional content. The antioxidant activity was evaluated based on the IC50 value, the instant porridge demonstrated a notable IC50 value of 73.28 μg/ml, indicating that it possesses strong antioxidant properties / indicating that it is categorized as a strong antioxidant. The nutritional and antioxidant properties of the instant porridge can be attributed to the main ingredients used in its production. Conclusions: The instant porridge produced provided high nutritional content and antioxidant activity, making it a good choice for meeting daily nutritional needs.

Abstract

Background: Many adolescents are unaware of the importance of consuming sufficient vegetables and fruits for maintaining good health. One of the contributing factors is their lack of understanding about how to assess their daily vegetable and fruit intake to meet nutritional needs. Therefore, there is a need to develop an Android-based application to help increase vegetable and fruit consumption among adolescents. Objectives: To develop the android-based “My Edu-VegFruit” application as a guide to understand and increase vegetable and fruit consumption in adolescents. Methods: The study was conducted from March to November, 2024 at the Faculty of Engineering, State University of Medan. The research sample consisted of 120 students from the 2022 Nutrition Study Program cohort, selected through purposive sampling. This research employed a research and development (R&D) method using the Four-D model. Results: The define phase analysis revealed that only 20% of the sample understood their daily vegetable requirements, and 48.9% understood their fruit needs. A total of 87% of respondents expressed the need for the application. The identification phase determined the content to be included in the application. During the design phase, a complete storyboard for the application, including supporting features, was created according to the research objectives. The develop phase involved media and material validation by experts, yielding feasibility ratings of 92% from material experts and 91.67% from media experts, both categorized as highly feasible. In the disseminate phase, the application trial showed an increase in knowledge about vegetable and fruit requirements to 80%. Additionally, 90% of the sample reported satisfaction with the application. Conclusions: The “My Edu-VegFruit” application is considered highly feasible as a guide for calculating vegetable and fruit requirements among adolescents. It can also serve as an educational tool for nutrition education on vegetables and fruits.

Abstract

Background: Nutritional knowledge in mothers is crucial in caring for toddlers. Providing nutrition has an impact on the growth and development of children. Breast milk contains complete nutrients. Exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months, followed by breastfeeding and complementary feeding, can prevent stunting. Objectives: This research aims to determine the correlation between maternal nutritional knowledge and history of breastfeeding with the occurrence of stunting in infants aged 24-59 months. Methods: The study was conducted in the working area of Angkup Community Health Center, Silinara District, Central Aceh. The study design was cross-sectional. A total sampling technique was used to select 38 toddlers. Data were collected using a questionnaire. The obtained results were analyzed using chi-square and multiple linear regression tests. Results: The analysis results showed an Asimp. Sig 0.020 < 0.05, indicating a significant association between maternal nutritional knowledge and the occurrence of stunting in toddlers. The analysis of breastfeeding also indicated an Asimp. Sig value of 0.004 < 0.05 suggests a significant association between breastfeeding and the occurrence of stunting in toddlers. Regression analysis demonstrated the influence of maternal nutritional knowledge and breastfeeding on the stunting variable by 35% in infants in the working area of Angkup Community Health Center, Central Aceh, from January to March 2022. Conclusions: The occurrence of stunting in the village of Angkup is related to maternal nutritional knowledge and the history of breastfeeding.

Abstract

Background: Flakes are widely consumed cereals, but their formulation often produces high glycemic index (GI) values. Rice flour, a common base, may elevate postprandial glucose, while coconut flour, rich in dietary fiber, can lower glycemic response and improve nutritional value. Objectives: This study aimed to identify the best formulation of rice flour–coconut flour flakes and to evaluate the glycemic index and glycemic load of the selected formula. Methods: Flakes were prepared in three ratios: F1 (75:25), F2 (50:50), and F3 (25:75). Proximate composition, dietary fiber, physical properties, and sensory attributes were assessed to determine the selected formula. Glycemic index testing was performed on 10 healthy adults according to Indonesian National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM) guidelines, using glucose as reference. Capillary blood glucose was measured at 0–120 minutes, and glycemic load was calculated from GI and available carbohydrate. Results: Increasing coconut flour significantly raised dietary fiber (p-value=0.000), with F3 showing the highest content (48.51%). Sensory evaluation indicated F2 (50:50) was most acceptable, with higher scores for aroma, texture, and overall liking. F2 also showed moderate resistance compared to F1 and F3. GI testing of F2 yielded a low GI value of 49, while the glycemic load was also low at 4.9 per serving. Conclusions: The incorporation of coconut flour improved the nutritional and functional quality of rice flour flakes. F2 (50:50) was the best formulation, producing flakes with favorable acceptance and low glycemic response, supporting its potential as a healthier cereal product.
