Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, with type II diabetes mellitus contributing the majority of cases due to unhealthy dietary patterns, low levels of knowledge, and poor adherence in disease management. Proper dietary management is essential to control blood glucose levels and prevent complications. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and dietary adherence with blood glucose levels among patients with type II diabetes mellitus in the inpatient ward of RSUD Tarutung. This study used a quantitative method with an analytic approach and a cross-sectional design. The population consisted of 54 patients, and total sampling was applied. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. The results show that there is a significant relationship between knowledge level and blood glucose levels (p=0.000; r=-0.598) as well as between dietary adherence and blood glucose levels (p=0.001; r=-0.434). Both variables show moderate negative correlations, indicating that better knowledge and higher dietary adherence are associated with better-controlled blood glucose levels. In conclusion, knowledge and dietary adherence play an important role in controlling blood glucose levels among patients with type II diabetes mellitus. It is recommended that health professionals enhance patient education and that future researchers examine other factors influencing blood glucose levels using more diverse research designs.

Abstract

Background: Cancer is a non-communicable disease whose incidence continues to rise and can be influenced by various factors, including lifestyle and dietary patterns from an early age. The habit of consuming low-fiber foods and minimal intake of vegetables and fruits in elementary school children has the potential to form unhealthy eating patterns that continue into adulthood. This condition can increase the risk of various degenerative diseases, including cancer. Vegetables and fruits are known to contain various important nutrients, especially antioxidants, which play a role in protecting body cells from damage caused by free radicals and supporting the body's defense system. Therefore, nutrition education from elementary school age is a strategic step in the prevention of non-communicable diseases. Objective: This Community Service (PkM) activity aims to increase elementary school students' knowledge and awareness of the importance of consuming vegetables and fruits as sources of antioxidants in the early prevention of cancer. Method: The activity was carried out at SD Negeri 104242 Lubuk Pakam through an interactive educational approach that included counseling, the use of visual media, educational games, and simple discussions tailored to the characteristics and level of understanding of elementary school children. Results and Discussion: The results of the activity showed an increase in students’ understanding from 60% before the education session to 85% after the session, representing a 25% increase in their knowledge of types of vegetables and fruits, the health benefits of antioxidants, and the importance of adopting healthy eating habits. Conclusion: This activity has the potential to be a preventive measure in shaping healthy lifestyles and increasing nutritional awareness from elementary school age.

Abstract

Anemia remains one of the most common nutritional problems among adolescent girls, primarily caused by inadequate iron intake and increased iron requirements during growth. Limited knowledge regarding iron-rich foods can increase the risk of anemia. This community service activity aimed to improve adolescent girls' knowledge about anemia prevention through the consumption of iron-rich foods. The program was conducted in May 2026 at SMA Muhammadiyah 5 Lubuk Pakam, North Sumatra, involving 30 female students of grade XII. The educational intervention consisted of interactive lectures, discussions, and simulations using food cards based on the Indonesian Food Composition Table (TKPI) to identify iron-rich food sources. Evaluation was carried out using pre-test and post-test assessments. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ knowledge after the educational program. Before the intervention, 36.7% of participants had good knowledge, 43.3% had moderate knowledge, and 20.0% had poor knowledge. After the intervention, the proportion of students with good knowledge increased to 86.7%, while 13.3% remained in the moderate category and no students were classified as having poor knowledge. Participants also demonstrated high enthusiasm during discussions and simulations and were able to identify iron-rich foods and strategies to enhance iron absorption. These findings indicate that nutrition education on the consumption of iron-rich foods is effective in improving knowledge and understanding among adolescent girls as an effort to prevent anemia.
