Abstract

Adolescents consume sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), their primary added sugar source, daily, yet there is a considerable SSBs’ knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) gap. Media literacy is crucial in enhancing student education and engagement through high-quality and digestible materials and methods. This study aims to identify the preferred educational media for SSBs among urban adolescents in Jakarta.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is still a nutritional problem in Indonesia, where maternal malnutrition is one of the causes. Studies show that prospective brides and women of childbearing age in Indonesia are not physically and knowledgeably ready for pregnancy. Nutritional preparation is crucial during preconception, as preconception nutritional status can have cross-generational impacts, yet it is often overlooked. Objective: This study aimed to explore the experiences of prospective brides regarding nutritional preparation during the preconception period. Methods: This qualitative research was conducted in Bogor, Indonesia, using in-depth interviews and participatory methods. The main informants of this study were 20 prospective brides selected through convenience sampling. Additionally, 21 key informants were involved for triangulation. Data analysis was conducted by coding verbatim transcripts using NVivo12 software. The results of this study used a pre-determined theme aligned with the research objectives. Result: Almost all informants agreed that preconception nutritional preparation was crucial before marriage. Several nutritional preparation activities carried out by prospective brides emerged from this study, such as pre-pregnancy weight management and eating nutritious and healthier foods. However, many prospective brides still did not perform these activities optimally. Conclusion: Many prospective brides were already putting efforts to undertake nutritional preparation. However, knowledge gaps and misunderstandings among brides and grooms regarding nutritional preparation persist. There is a need to improve their awareness at preconception period and ensure government programs are accessible, equitable, and effective. This study offers new insights into nutritional preparation for brides, an area that is underexplored.

Using the logic model framework, this study examines the implementation and challenges of breastfeeding counselling programs in Majene District, West Sulawesi Objective: This study aims to gain an in-depth understanding of experiences and perspectives regarding the implementation of the breastfeeding counselling program using the Logic Model among health workers in Majene District. Methods: From January to June 2024, a qualitative phenomenological approach was employed. Data collection included in-depth interviews with 12 trained breastfeeding counsellors, eight key informants, and focus group discussions with 24 mothers. Thematic analysis using NVivo 12, guided by the Logic Model framework, which grouped breastfeeding counselling into input, process, outputs, and outcomes aspects. Results: Key challenges included a shortage of trained counsellors, limited infrastructure, and budget constraints. Health workers adapted by integrating counselling into maternal health services, conducting home visits, and collaborating with Posyandu cadres. Exclusive breastfeeding rates showed slight improvements but remained below national targets. Beneficiaries expressed satisfaction but highlighted the need for longer and more frequent counselling sessions. Conclusions: The program faced significant resource challenges, including a shortage of skilled counsellors, budget constraints, and limited facilities. However, adaptive strategies by health workers crucial for overcoming logistical and resource constraints resulted in beneficiaries’ satisfaction and positive developments in breastfeeding rates.

Abstract

Background: Good nutritional knowledge is important for athletes to develop positive attitude and proper dietary practices, especially supporting training, competition, and peak performance. Lack of knowledge can lead to energy and nutrient imbalances, which can disrupt physiological adaptation, recovery, and athletic performance. Unlike previous studies on knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP), which generally only assess questionnaire scores on eating practices without directly analyzing dietary intake, this study takes a different approach by directly analyzing dietary intake and considering differences between rest days and training days. Objectives: To analyze the association between nutritional knowledge and attitudes towards dietary intake among competitive elite athletes in DKI Jakarta.
