Abstract

Background: The rapid technological development has led to the emergence of gene-based nutrition services, which hold promise in reducing the prevalence of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs). However, a considerable portion of the population remains unaware of these innovative nutrition services. Objectives: This study aims to identify the correlation between the extent of public knowledge and their interest in gene-based nutrition services in Indonesia. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. This study was conducted online via the Qualtrics Survey platform during May-June 2023. The determination of the sample used a cluster sampling technique across five provinces in Indonesia. The research instrument used a questionnaire on socio-demographic characteristics and a validated structured questionnaire assessing knowledge and interest levels in gene-based nutrition services. Statistical data analysis employed the Chi-Square test. Results: This study involved a total of 439 respondents from five provinces in Indonesia. The majority of the respondents exhibited low levels of knowledge (51.7%) and interest (55.4%) in gene-based nutrition services. A statistically significant association was observed between knowledge and interest in gene-based nutrition services (p-value=0.029, PR=1.5, 95% CI=1.04-2.22). Conclusions: The findings of this study underline a relationship between the extent of knowledge and the level of interest in gene-based nutrition services in Indonesia. To increase public interest, it is necessary to increase knowledge regarding gene-based nutrition services through online media, nutritionists or print media that discuss nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics.

Abstract

Background: Individuals possess unique genes that influence their susceptibility to diseases and their response to dietary interventions. The emergence of nutritional genomics has made it possible to identify disease predispositions and mitigate risks through gene-based dietary guidance. Consequently, understanding gene-based nutrition services is crucial for nutritionists, as it facilitates the integration of genetic insights into dietary recommendations. Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the familiarity of dietitians in Indonesia with gene-based nutrition services. Methods: Employing a qualitative approach with a phenomenological orientation, this study was conducted in DKI Jakarta, Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, Jawa Timur, and DI Yogyakarta. Purposive sampling was employed, involving a total of seven nutritionists. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews conducted both in person and online via Zoom meetings. Thematic analysis was carried out utilizing Nvivo 12.0. Results: The knowledge of nutritionists regarding nutritional genomics is limited. While they could explain fundamental concepts, their understanding lacked depth. Similarly, their comprehension of gene-based nutrition services was restricted, leading to uncertainties about their role in such services. Nutritionists generally expressed positive attitudes towards gene-based nutrition services, recognizing their significance and advocating for their provision by relevant agencies. There was a strong interest among nutritionists in offering gene-based nutrition services and a willingness to expand their understanding of nutritional genomics. Conclusions: The knowledge of nutritionists regarding gene-based nutrition services remains insufficient. There is a need for nutritionists to undergo training, attend seminars, and enhance their understanding of nutritional genomics in academic settings.

Abstract

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) constitute significant causes of global mortality, with their prevalence continually rising each year. The development of nutrigenetic science and gene-based nutrition services plays a vital role in mitigating NCDs, despite the lack of awareness among many individuals.  Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationship between education levels and the level of interest in gene-based nutrition services among Indonesians.  Methods: A cross-sectional study design was conducted online using the Qualtrics Survey during May and June 2023 in DKI Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, East Java, and DI Yogyakarta. The cluster sampling technique was employed. Structured questionnaires were designed, covering sociodemographic information and interest levels, and were validated and tested for reliability. Data analysis involved chi-square testing.  Results: Indonesians exhibited a substantial interest in gene-based nutrition services (92.3%). Most participants (89.7%) expressed willingness to recommend nutrigenetic testing to their families. Additionally, 97.5% of participants agreed that gene-based nutrition services offer numerous benefits (97.5%), and a significant proportion was open to paying more for such services (62.4%). A large percentage of Indonesians demonstrated interest in undergoing nutrigenetic testing to ascertain disease susceptibility (95.9%). However, no significant association was observed between education levels and the interest in gene-based nutrition services in Indonesia (p=0.134, OR: 0.551, CI=95% (0.27-1.11)).  Conclusions: The study findings suggest that the educational background of Indonesians does not significantly impact their interest in gene-based nutrition services. However, a majority of Indonesians display interest and recognize the potential benefits of gene-based nutrition services, particularly in the context of preventing NCDs.

Abstract

Background: Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) are the primary health issues in Indonesia, with their prevalence increasing each year. The advancement of technology, such as gene-based nutrition services, could offer an alternative approach to prevent NCDs in the present and future.  Objectives: This study aims to assess the current level of knowledge regarding gene-based nutrition services among Indonesians for NCD prevention.  Methods: A qualitative phenomenological study was conducted across five provinces in Indonesia. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten informants, selected using the snowball sampling technique. The research focused on themes such as understanding gene-based nutrition services, genetic knowledge, and the role of gene-based nutritional analysis in NCD prevention. Thematic analysis was performed using NVivo v.14.  Results: The community demonstrated a solid grasp of the concept of genetics and inherited traits. However, they struggled with genetic terminology. Most Indonesians had limited awareness of gene-based nutrition services, although they recognized their benefits in disease detection and dietary management. They also knew that the cost of this inspection was expensive, and individuals expressed concerns about the potential implications of disease risk detection. Participants notably clarified that NCDs are not communicable diseases and can be prevented through gene-based nutritional interventions. Interest in gene-based nutrition services was substantial, yet barriers included cost and facility accessibility.  Conclusions: Indonesians generally possess limited knowledge about genetics, gene-based nutrition services, and genetic testing. However, they acknowledge the significance of genetic-based nutrition services in early NCD prevention, as these services can help determine appropriate dietary patterns and lifestyles.

Abstract

Background: The rapid development of genetics science provides significant impacts on disease prevention and control. In Indonesia, the application of dietetics is not popular. Thus, the role of nutritionists in the application of nutritional genomics in dietetic work practices is highly needed. The role of nutritionists is important in providing information about how nutrition and genetics interact in influencing health and providing alternative early nutritional interventions. Objectives: Identify the role of nutritionists in providing gene-based nutrition services in Indonesia. Methods: This qualitative study used a phenomenological approach. This study was carried out in five provinces in Indonesia. Informant data were obtained from quantitative research. The determination of the informant used a purposive sampling technique involving six informants. Data were collected by conducting structured interviews online using Zoom Meeting. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis with NVIVO v.12 software. Results: Most nutritionists who have and have not implemented gene-based nutrition services know about gene-based nutrition services. However, some do not know the meaning of nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics. Besides, they know the role of nutritionists, namely as a counselor to provide counseling, provide advice regarding diet according to the patient's needs, and provide motivation to patients to follow a diet according to the patient's needs. Conclusions: In providing gene-based nutritional services, nutritionists play a role as counselors to provide counseling, provide advice regarding patient needs, and provide motivation to patients to adopt a diet according to patient needs.
