Abstract

Medicinal plants have long been inseparable from Indonesia's cultural heritage and hold significant potential for developing the healthcare and economic sectors. However, the understanding of the younger generation regarding the benefits and value of medicinal plants still needs to be improved. This article examines efforts to promote the importance of medicinal plants, mainly targeted at Clinical and Community Pharmacy Study Program students at Al Razi Sinar Harapan Medan Private Vocational School. In an attempt to address this issue, promoting the benefits and potential of medicinal plants becomes crucial. The activities aim to enhance the awareness and understanding of participants about the significance of medicinal plants in the realms of healthcare and industry. The methods used in these activities include lectures, group discussions, practical demonstrations, and evaluations. These promotion activities show positive and encouraging outcomes, significantly improving participants' understanding of medicinal plants. Most participants who participated in these activities are intensely interested in further exploring medicinal plants, with some even considering pursuing a career in this field. Despite the high level of interest, several challenges still need to be addressed in harnessing the potential of medicinal plants, including limited scientific research, insufficient educational resources, and regulatory hurdles. Overall, with the appropriate approach and cross-sector collaboration, medicinal plants have substantial potential to become a new cornerstone in the healthcare and economic sectors in North Sumatra and throughout Indonesia. Initiatives like these promotions were expected to serve as a promising initial step in uncovering and realizing this potential. With increased understanding and interest among the younger generation in medicinal plants, they can actively contribute to the sustainable development and utilization of these valuable resources, thereby advancing the healthcare sector and supporting the nation's economic growth.

Abstract

The increase in processed food consumption has led to an increase in the use of food additives. However, public understanding of food additives and their health impacts remains minimal, especially among high school students. Private High School Harapan 3 is one such private school located in Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra, bordering the city of Medan, which has garnered attention due to the high number of students consuming food or snacks containing additives without knowing the negative effects of excessive consumption. This forms the basis for the need to conduct awareness activities at the school. Therefore, this community service activity aims to provide a better understanding to students as participants about food additives and their negative health effects. The implementation method of this activity consists of several stages. Firstly, the preparation of interesting and easily understandable counseling materials, covering the introduction of additives, their types, and their health impacts. Secondly, direct counseling conducted by lecturers from various disciplines interactively by providing relevant case examples. Thirdly, group discussions to deepen understanding and resolve participants' doubts. Fourthly, a question and answer session. The results of this activity show an improvement in participants' understanding, evident from their enthusiasm in asking questions because they realize the importance of choosing healthy foods and avoiding those with excessive additives. Group discussions help them understand information more deeply, while the question and answer session provides an opportunity to clarify doubts. Through this activity, we have successfully increased participants' understanding of food additives and their health impacts. Thus, participants are expected to apply this knowledge in their daily lives as smart and responsible consumers when choosing food.

Abstract

Cardiac health is influenced by the balance of electrolytes in the body, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, which support cardiovascular functions, including heart rhythm and blood pressure regulation. Electrolyte imbalance increases the risk of heart disease, particularly among adolescents with unbalanced diets and low physical activity. Education about the role of electrolytes is essential for early prevention. This community service activity aimed to enhance the understanding of Al-Azhar Medan Private High School students as participants about the role of electrolytes in cardiac health and encourage them to adopt a healthy lifestyle. The methods included interactive counseling through presentations, discussions, and practical activities. The materials covered the types of electrolytes, their functions, signs of imbalance, and ways to maintain electrolyte balance through a healthy diet and adequate hydration. Visual aids and real-life case examples were utilized to clarify the participants' understanding. The evaluation results showed a significant improvement in the participants' knowledge of electrolyte functions and the importance of electrolyte balance for cardiac health. Most participants expressed an intention to pay more attention to their diet and electrolyte intake, and the program was effective in increasing knowledge and awareness of the importance of electrolytes for heart health. Proper education is expected to encourage adolescents to adopt a healthy lifestyle early, reducing the risk of heart disease in the future.
