Abstract

Background: Including Indonesia, the elderly population worldwide is on the rise. This situation is closely related to the increase in the incidence and prevalence of non-communicable diseases. Eating behavior is related to the risk of non- communicable the risk of NCDs in the elderly. Therefore, nutrition intervention should be carried out from old age.Objectives: The purpose of this study is to review potential nutritional interventions to prepare for a healthy ageing process in an Indonesian context.Discusion: This review uses social cognition theory to emphasize the importance of nutrition education, the development of nutritional products with biologically active compounds, and practical guidelines that influence individual dietary behavior. Nutritional interventions should take into account Indonesia’s existing food-based balanced nutrition diet guidelines and the dietary patterns of adults and the elderly. Indonesia has a large population, ethnic and cultural diversity, which together affect people’s daily consumption of various foods.Conclusions: Customized nutrition education programs and the development of functional foods are appropriate interventions that can be implemented in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: The rapid ageing population among older adults from 2020 to 2040 has led to an emerging focus as this group begins to experience ageing and has a higher risk of having chronic illness of non-communicable diseases. Therefore, it is important to provide General Practitioners (GPs) with adequate knowledge and attitude of healthy ageing to ensure the quality of health service among older adults.Objectives: To identify the perspective of general practitioners including the knowledge, attitude and practice towards adult health and nutrition to support healthy ageing in Indonesia.Methods: An online survey was conducted among 100 general practitioners registered at the Indonesian Medical Council (KKI) and domiciled in the Greater Jakarta area and outside the Jabodetabek area. The sample recruitment process was carried out using the Alomedika online application. All data were analyzed using SPSS software.Results: Almost all (92%) of respondents who took this survey had a supportive attitude in providing additional nutrition to adults to support healthy ageing. About 76% of the respondents did so by recommending milk. However, in terms of knowledge, around 67% of the respondents showed inadequate results, especially about physiological changes that occurred in adults. There is no statistically significant difference between respondents’ demographic characteristics and all perspectives measured in this study (i.e., knowledge, attitude and practice)Conclusions: The study indicates that it is important to educate general practitioners about the healthy aging process in order to maintain general practitioners' attitudes and behavior in health services to support the success of achieving healthy aging in Indonesia.

Abstract

The interaction of micronutrients and macronutrients has been shown to have a significant impact on children's cognitive development. Furthermore, proper nutrition helps a child's immune system avoid infection and disease, which can impair nutrient absorption and lead to deficiency. Microbiotas in the gut play critical roles in body physiology, including nutrient absorption, infection resistance and immune system development. Furthermore, it is known that the gut microbiota influences immune cell maturation. Finally, these three factors are thought to influence neurogenesis and cognitive development. A virtual meeting was held with five invited experts to gain a better understanding of the relationship between nutritional factors, the immune system and cognitive development.

Abstract

The concept of the gut (microbiota)-brain axis, which influences the development and function of the gastrointestinal, immune, neuroendocrine, and metabolic systems, is gaining popularity. Recent animal studies have demonstrated that the gut (microbiota)-brain axis also plays a role in establishing cognitive function. It is known that a disruption in the environment's microbiota balance can increase disease susceptibility in children. Historically, it has been hypothesized that neurodevelopmental disorders are the results of a disruption in children’s health. However, it is becoming clear that the gut microbiota and the central nervous system communicate in both directions, which could explain how microbiota affects cognitive function. Dietary factors also play important role in the central nervous system via the gut (microbiota)-brain axis, demonstrating the importance of nutrition in optimizing cognitive function. This narrative review of recently published studies and current knowledge aims to elucidate the relationship between the gut (microbiota)-brain axis and cognitive function, as well as the variables that may influence it.

Abstract

The identification of child development milestones, specifically cognitive abilities, requires parental/caregiver awareness and knowledge. With the existence of multiple cognitive abilities such as attention and focus, memory, language, psychomotor skills, logic, reasoning, decision-making, problem-solving, social/emotional, there are multiple indicators to measure children's cognitive abilities. Pediatricians are the most knowledgeable and trusted authority to routinely screen and monitor the development of healthy children. Therefore, it is crucial that parents understand their children's developmental milestones so if they encounter anomalies, they can immediately consult with the professionals. This review compiles recently published research and current knowledge to examine potential key indicators of cognitive development in infants and children that can be utilized by parents and communities in an easily understood manner.
