Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze medicinal products containing macro and micro algae as basic ingredients that are available in traditional and modern markets in the city of Medan. The descriptive survey method was used in this research, with data collection through direct observation, interviews with sellers and buyers, and product documentation. The markets surveyed included several representative traditional and modern markets in Medan City. The research results show that modern markets offer a wide range of algae-based products, whereas in traditional markets, these products may be more limited. Consumers in the modern market tend to be more aware of the health benefits of algae and prefer products that have clear certification and quality standards. However, consumer awareness in traditional markets still needs to be increased. Obstacles such as lack of consumer education and limited product distribution are still challenges that need to be overcome. Thus, an effective strategy in developing the market for algae-based medicinal products in Medan City is to increase consumer education, improve regulatory standards and product quality, and expand product distribution more evenly between traditional and modern markets.

Abstract

Autoimmune diseases are immune system disorders characterized by an abnormal immune response that attacks the body’s own tissues and may involve multiple organ systems, including the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. This condition can significantly reduce quality of life, particularly in adolescent females who are at higher risk, especially when accompanied by a history of undernutrition. This study aimed to comprehensively examine an autoimmune disease affecting the musculoskeletal and nervous systems in an adolescent female with a history of poor nutritional status. A qualitative case study approach was employed using in-depth interviews. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis to explore the relationship between nutritional status, dietary patterns, supplementation, and clinical manifestations. The findings revealed that a history of undernutrition contributed to the severity of autoimmune symptoms, including bone pain, joint stiffness, gait disturbances, and neurological complaints. This study concludes that nutritional status plays a crucial role in the progression of autoimmune diseases, highlighting the importance of appropriate nutritional interventions, personalized dietary management, and a holistic approach in managing autoimmune conditions in adolescents.
