Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease with an increasing incidence in Indonesia and is closely related to blood sugar control. This study was conducted aimed to analyze the relationship between diet and nutritional status with blood sugar levels in outpatients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at Ibnu Sina Gresik Hospital. A cross-sectional study design was employed along with observational analysis. The sample included 34 patients selected using the Accidental Sampling technique. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaires, measurements of height and weight, and laboratory results. The study was conducted from December 2023 to April 2024, and the data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis using the chi-square test. The results showed that patients with poor diet and overweight tend to have abnormal blood sugar levels, with p=0.014 for diet and p=0.023 for weight gain, both significant (p<0.05). In conclusion, there is a relationship between diet and nutritional status and blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is recommended, patients should implement a diet according to the 3J principle, do sufficient physical activity, regularly monitor blood sugar levels, and make dietary changes such as reducing simple carbohydrates and sugar to manage blood sugar levels.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical period marked by rapid growth and development, requiring optimal nutrition to support physical and cognitive functions. This descriptive quantitative study aimed to assess the relationship between nutritional knowledge, food intake, physical activity, and nutritional status among eighth-grade female students at SMP Muhammadiyah 9 Surabaya. Using total sampling, 48 students participated by completing structured questionnaires, 2×24-hour dietary recalls, and anthropometric measurements. Results showed that 97.9% of students had good nutritional knowledge. However, 56.3% had very low protein intake, 64.6% had very low fat intake, and 89.6% had very low carbohydrate intake, with no participants reaching normal carbohydrate consumption. Most students (52.1%) engaged in light physical activity. Despite poor dietary intake and low activity levels, 66.7% had normal nutritional status, while 26.0% were underweight, and 8.4% were overweight or obese. The findings reveal a disconnect between knowledge and behavior, suggesting that nutritional awareness alone does not ensure healthy practices. Environmental, economic, and behavioral factors likely influence this gap. The study highlights the importance of integrated interventions that address not only knowledge but also food access, habits, and lifestyle to improve adolescent health. A holistic, school-based approach is recommended to support adequate nutrition, physical activity, and growth during adolescence.

Abstract

Stunting remains a public health problem in Surabaya, where effective educational interventions are needed to enhance maternal knowledge on balanced nutrition. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of counseling using poster media on balanced nutrition knowledge among mothers of stunted or at-risk toddlers. A quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted at the Krembangan Selatan Community Health Center, involving 33 mothers selected through non-probability sampling. Primary data were collected through validated questionnaires administered before and after the intervention. The counseling used posters illustrating the balanced nutrition pyramid and the "Isi Piringku" (My Plate) concept. Results showed a mean knowledge score increase from 76.06 to 84.84. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test indicated a statistically significant improvement (p = 0.001). These findings suggest that poster-based counseling effectively improves maternal knowledge. However, the absence of a control group, the small sample size, and the short follow-up period limit the generalizability and long-term interpretation of the results. Further research using a randomized controlled trial design is recommended to assess sustained behavioral changes.

Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia is a major health problem that occurs in adolescent girls. Prevention of anemia in adolescent girls is carried out with food innovations that are high in iron. This study aims were to determine the acceptability and content of Fe in beetroot and moringa “BILOR” pancakes as a snack to prevent anemia in adolescent girls. This type of research uses experimental research with a complete random design. There are three formulations with the addition of wheat flour:beet flour:moringa leaves flour, PB1 (85:0:0), PB2 (50:20:15), PB3 (50:25:10). A total of 2,700 grams of samples for 30 panelists were organoleptically tested using a hedonic scale and analyzed with the Kruskal Wallis test and the Mann Whitney test. Based on the results of the acceptability test on the PB1 control formulation was preferred by the panelists, while the PB3 treatment formulation with an iron content of 6.88mg was considered the best and qualified as a snack. It is hoped that the formulation of the “BILOR” pancake can be improved and developed again for better results.

Abstract

Hygiene and sanitation are essential to ensuring food safety, particularly in the catering industry. The knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of food handlers significantly influence the quality and safety of food served. A preliminary study at “PJ” Catering Surabaya found that while food handlers had generally good knowledge, their attitudes and practices remained suboptimal. This gap between knowledge and practice is critical, as it increases the risk of food contamination, threatens consumer health, and can undermine trust in catering services. This study aimed to assess the hygiene and sanitation-related KAP of food handlers during food processing. A descriptive cross-sectional design was used, involving all seven food handlers through total sampling. Knowledge and attitudes were measured using structured questionnaires, and practices were observed directly. Data were analyzed descriptively using frequency distribution. Results showed that 71.4% of respondents had good knowledge and 71.4% had good attitudes. However, practices in ingredient selection, storage, and food serving were only sufficient (42.85–57.15%). These findings emphasize the need for continuous training and regular supervision to improve hygiene and sanitation practices. Strengthening these aspects is essential to ensuring consistent food safety, maintaining service quality, and protecting consumer health in catering operations.

Abstract

Anemia remains a major nutritional problem among adolescent girls, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Increased nutritional requirements during growth, menstrual blood loss, dietary inadequacy, and poor nutritional behaviors contribute to a higher risk of anemia during adolescence. A comprehensive assessment of nutritional and behavioral characteristics is needed to support effective anemia prevention strategies. This study aimed to compare nutritional and behavioral characteristics according to anemia status among adolescent girls in a junior high school setting in Madiun Regency, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 123 female students aged 12–15 years at SMP Negeri 2 Balerejo, Madiun Regency, Indonesia, in June 2026. Participants were selected using a total sampling approach. Hemoglobin levels were measured using the Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) method, with anemia defined as hemoglobin concentration <12 g/dL. Nutritional status was assessed through anthropometric measurements. Dietary intake was evaluated using a Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) and 3×24-hour dietary recall. Nutritional knowledge, attitudes, and anemia-prevention practices were assessed using structured questionnaires. Comparative analyses were performed between anemia and non-anemia groups. Among participants, 26 (21.1%) were classified as anemic and 97 (78.9%) had normal hemoglobin status. The anemia group had significantly lower hemoglobin levels than the non-anemia group (10.87±0.83 vs. 13.30±1.05 g/dL; p<0.001). However, no significant differences were found in nutritional status, energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate, vitamin C, iron intake, knowledge, attitudes, or anemia-prevention practices (p>0.05). Anemia remains a nutritional concern among adolescent girls. The findings suggest that anemia status cannot be explained solely by nutrient intake or anthropometric indicators. School-based interventions should integrate anemia screening, dietary diversification, promotion of iron- and vitamin C-rich foods, and nutrition education.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The tutoring center "Kenosis" in Sidoyoso, established in 2016 by GKA Gloria Pos Sidoyoso, provides free educational support for elementary school children. This program helps in the academic and character development of children, initially taught by instructors from the Inter-University Christian Fellowship (Perkantas) and now reinforced by 4 permanent teachers. In addition to the need for tutoring, children are faced with daily conditions such as unhealthy snacks, low understanding of dental hygiene, and the importance of handwashing. These bad habits increase the risk of dental caries, infectious diseases, and the consumption of harmful food additives. Education and supervision are key to improving children's health and well-being. The Poltekkes Kemenkes Surabaya service team, consisting of 21 lecturers and 11 students, provided solutions to the above issues to 35 elementary school children at the Kenosis tutoring center on January 9, 2025, by delivering educational materials and practicing how to choose healthy snacks, brush teeth, and wash hands properly and correctly. Knowledge of harmful food additives The average pre-test score was 60.2, while the post-test score was 70.5. Understanding of proper tooth brushing techniques pre-test result 60.0 and post-test 70.5, understanding of good and correct handwashing habits had an average pre-test score of 60.0 and a post-test score of 70.5. There was an increase in knowledge about harmful food additives, proper tooth brushing techniques, and proper handwashing at the "Kenosis GKA Gloria Pos Sidoyoso" tutoring session.

Abstract

Clean and Healthy Living Behavior is a promotive-preventive strategy in improving the degree of public health, especially in groups of children and adolescents who are vulnerable to environment-based diseases and nutritional disorders. Church on Trenceng, Mrican Village, Ponorogo Regency, has experienced the chikungunya in 2024, which shows the need to strengthen PHBS practices at the household and church community levels. The purpose of community service is to increase the knowledge of children and adolescents on the implementation of PHBS in the domestic order. Community service is carried out with a participatory educational approach through counseling using flyer media and simple demonstrations. The target was 33 children and adolescents. Health checks are carried out through measurements of height, weight, upper arm circumference, and head circumference to determine nutritional status based on body mass index. The majority of the target had good nutritional status (81.8%), with 9.1% being obese, 6.1% over-nutritional, and 3.0% under-nutrition. Interactive education increases understanding of PHBS practices, including washing hands with soap, consuming balanced nutrition, physical activity, and eradicating mosquito nests. Active participation shows an increase in health awareness in children and adolescents as agents of change in the family.

Abstract

Childhood stunting and adolescent anaemia remain important nutrition challenges in Indonesia, requiring sustainable food-based approaches using locally available resources. The development of functional foods requires consistent and quality-controlled raw materials to ensure reproducible formulation processes. This study aimed to produce and characterize standardized simplisia from moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera), mung bean (Vigna radiata), and pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) as preliminary raw materials for functional food development. This experimental descriptive-characterization study represented the first phase of the two-year “Keloreal Berani Sehat” program. Three plant materials obtained from local producers in Central Sulawesi and East Java were processed following national herbal-material preparation procedures. Quality evaluation included yield (rendemen), loss on drying, and descriptive organoleptic characterization. Each material was processed in a single production batch, and data were analyzed descriptively according to established quality criteria. The resulting simplisia showed low moisture content, with loss on drying values of 4.7% for moringa leaf, 4.4% for mung bean, and 5.4% for pumpkin, all below the 10% threshold specified for dried herbal materials. Yield varied according to the characteristics of the source materials, with mung bean showing the highest yield (97.3%), followed by moringa leaf (28.5%) and pumpkin (12.2%). All samples showed acceptable physical characteristics and absence of visible foreign matter. These findings establish a traceable and standardized raw material foundation for subsequent functional food formulation studies, including nutritional composition analysis, bioactive evaluation, processing optimization, and acceptability assessment.
