Abstract

Introduction Vitamin B12 plays a role during pregnancy in maintaining folate metabolism. Together with folate and vitamin B6, B12 is involved as a coenzyme in DNA synthesis and various methylation reactions in developing embryos. This study aims to compare plasma folate, vitamin B6 and B12 blood levels with respect to the presence of probiotic strain Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HNO19 (DR10TM) among pregnant women in Indonesia. Methods: This study is part of a larger study entitled “Effects of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HNO19 (DR10TM), inulin, and micronutrient fortified milk on fecal DR10TM, immune markers, and maternal micronutrients among Indonesian pregnant women.” Further analyses were performed using independent-t test or Mann Whitney test, GLM-repeated measures and chi-square test, to compare folate, vitamin B6 and B12 intake and blood concentration during pregnancy with presence (n=22) and absence (n=55) subjects of fecal DR10TM at third trimester. Results: At the first trimesters there was no difference in plasma vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 levels between the two groups, based on the presence or absence of fecal DR10TM. However, at the second and third trimester, vitamin B6 blood concentration (p=0.034 and p=0.001) and vitamin B12 blood concentrations at the third trimester (p=0.035) were significantly higher in the fecal DR10TM positive group, while having a similar vitamin B6 and B12 intake. Conclusion: Consumption of pre- and probiotics during the periconceptional period may be a useful strategy for improving maternal vitamin B’s vitamins, especially vitamin B6 and B12 status and therefore provide benefits for the offspring’s quality of life.

Abstract

The quality of protein and amino acids of soya is being used as soy protein-based formulas in infant feeding to provide nutrition for normal growth and development. There are few indications for their use in place of cow milk-based formula, although it has no advantage over cow milk protein based formula beyond those indications.

Abstract

For Indonesia children, the sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) drinking behavior is not yet a big problem as compared to other countries, such as Mexico or United States. However, although the soft-drink intake is very minimal, there is a trending higher intake of sweetened milks, sweetened teas dan packaged juice in a daily or weekly bases. Based on age, then the amount and the percentage of SSB consumer age 10–17 years is higher as compared to the younger or older age.

Abstract

There is surely rapid development of toddler and preschool age children, especially related to human brain development. Poor development among under-five children in Indonesia in 2010 is ranged 40–59%. Global data shows that there is triple burden of malnutrition, and amongst improper behavior, the two highest clinical symptoms are hyperactivity and showing anger when displeased. This shows that children need nurturing care in which has its contribution through the life course.
