Abstract

Nutritional status is an essential indicator of children's health status because it is a risk factor for morbidity and mortality. Good nutritional status in children will contribute to their health in recovering from illness. Malnutrition is a condition in children's weight for age (BB/U) that does not match their age. Moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera) is a functional food from the monogeneric Moringaceae family and contains several minerals. The purpose of this community service was to empower the Dasa Wisma group to utilise the community's yard by planting Moringa to improve the nutritional status of toddlers and reduce Stunting rates. This service was carried out from April to July 2022 at the Stunting locus, i.e. Pauh Kamba District, Padang Pariaman Regency. The activities included coaching the Dasa Wisma group regarding Stunting, how to overcome Stunting, processing Moringa leaves as a source of nutrition and family income, and evaluating Dasa Wisma group activities in processing Moringa leaves into food. The partnership program is expected to have sustained assistance from an expert to the community in the village.

Abstract

Increasing the degree of health means that life expectancy will also increase, and the number of older people will also increase. The consequence of increasing life expectancy is the emergence of disease problems due to old age, one of which is osteoporosis. This activity aimed to determine the health status of the elderly by conducting health checks and providing nutrition education to prevent osteoporosis in Padang City. The service was held in Korong Gadang Elderly Posyandu in April - September 2021. The community service included health checks by measuring blood pressure, measuring the nutritional status of the elderly, as well as nutrition education to prevent osteoporosis in the elderly, especially for menopausal women. This activity received a positive response from the community, and it was agreed that ongoing activities would be carried out in the form of routine health checks and counselling for the older people in the area.
