Poor consumption behavior in adolescence, such as diet trends and consumption of junk food, is the underlying cause of the emergence of various nutritional problems. Protein along with iron (heme) plays a role in the transportation of nutrients by forming a complex of hemoglobin in the body.

The program for giving iron supplements to adolescence women in the working area of the Sidomulyo Health Center has been running but due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the implementation of online teaching and learning activities (students are not present at school) it has stopped since 2019. So it is necessary to provide assistance in giving iron supplements and accompanied by nutrition education in order to prevent the incidence of anemia in adolescent womens in Pekanbaru City High School. The purpose of this Community Service is to provide assistance for adolescent womens to consume iron and nutrition education.
