Abstract

Many variables, both directly and indirectly impact teenage girls' eating habits and nutritional condition. The goal of this study is to see if there's a link between teenage girls' nutritional awareness, their mothers' education, their parents' roles, and their family's income and their eating habits and nutritional status in SMA Negeri 1 Eban. This study utilized an analytic survey with a cross-sectional research design to evaluate the eating habits and nutritional status of teenage girls in SMA Negeri 1 Eban over a limited period of time. Participants in this study were all young women in grades X and XI, amounting to 262 people. The sample method was used by simple random sampling. The results of the research revealed that there was a significant relationship between nutritional knowledge (p = 0.010) and the nutritional status of adolescent girls. The research also stated that there was no significant relationship between nutritional knowledge (p = 0.887), maternal education (p = 0.746), parental roles (p = 0.745), and family income (p = 0.078) with the consumption patterns of adolescent girls. and there was no significant relationship between mother's education (p = 0.439), the role of parents (p = 0.396), and family income (p = 0.075). For young women, this research is intended to provide an overview of consumption patterns and nutritional status, enable them to change bad eating habits at home and at school, and apply nutritional information in their daily lives.

Abstract

Malnutrition is a condition where nutritional intake is insufficient to meet metabolic needs, with nutritional status based on body weight index for age (BB/U<-3SD). Malnutrition has a negative impact on physical and mental growth, reduces body resistance, intelligence and even causes disability and increases morbidity and mortality. This study used a case-control research design with a ratio of 1:1. The sample used was 50 selected by simple random sampling consisting of 25 cases and 25 controls. Analysis of the data used is a simple logistic regression analysis using statistical tests with a significance level of = 0.05. Mother's education showed a value (p = 0.002 OR value 0.107), mother's knowledge (p = 0.001 OR value 0.091) toddler eating habits consisted of main meals (p = 0.025 OR 0.259), breakfast (p = 0.045 OR 0.219), snacks (p=0.013, OR 0.291), family food availability (p=0.002, OR 576.000), and a history of infectious diseases (p=0.005, OR 22.154). From the results of the research, some respondents showed that there was a significant relationship between poor nutrition and maternal education, knowledge of maternal health nutrition, eating habits of children under five, availability of family food and infectious diseases. This is indicated by the results of a simple logistic regression analysis. Mothers must also take advantage of existing health services and pay attention to the nutritional intake of toddlers to prevent malnutrition.
