Abstract

This study aimed to explore the relationship between body image, eating behaviour, and physical activity among students at the National Defence University of Malaysia (UPNM). A total of 114 students, aged between 19 to 31 years old, were requited from the National Defence University of Malaysia (UPNM). Data were collected using an online self-report questionnaire which consists of four sections; Sociodemographic Form, Body Image Avoidance Questionnaire (BIAQ), Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26), and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Almost half of the respondents have normal BMI, whereas 20.2% were underweight and 23.7% were overweight and obese. Mean body image avoidance scores for civilian students, Reserve Officer Training Unit (ROTU), and cadets were 38.88±12.39, 42.71±6.34, and 44.00±16.05, respectively. Furthermore, high physical activity level was seen the most among civilian students (72.3%) compared to (57.1%) and cadets (41.7%). Significant associations were found between body image and eating behaviour (p<0.001). No association was observed between body image with physical activity (p>0.05) and eating behaviour with physical activity (p>0.05). To conclude, the respondents with a risk of the eating disorder tend to have higher body image avoidance, and the physical activity level did not seem to be concerning body image and eating behaviour in this study.

Abstract

This research aimed to assess knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding traditional herbs and spices consumption among Malaysian adults aged 18 to 60 years. A- 5-parts close-ended questionnaire was partially adapted and modified from articles and validated by 11 experts. Data collection was performed by using an online questionnaire (n=281). Most participants are female (75.4%) and Malay (85.1%), followed by Chinese (10.0%), Indian (2.1%), and other ethnicities (2.8%) such as Sabah natives, Iban, Dusun, and Javanese. Most respondents consumed traditional herbs and spices. Centella asiatica ('pegaga'), ginseng, Labisia pumila ('kacip fatimah'), and longjack ('tongkat ali') were the most consumed herbs whereas lemongrass, garlic, ginger, turmeric, and star anise were the most consumed spices. The study found good knowledge, fair attitude, and poor practice regarding traditional herbs and spices consumption. Knowledge was significantly associated with ethnicity, while consumption status was associated with attitude and practice levels. A moderate and positive correlation was observed between attitudes and practices. Enhancing public knowledge and promoting positive attitudes towards these traditional ingredients is essential for preserving cultural heritage and incorporating them into modern diets.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the relationship between socio-demographic factors, nutrition knowledge, and the use of nutrition information labels during food purchases among undergraduate students in UiTM Puncak Alam. In this cross-sectional study, 156 undergraduate students between 18 and 25 years old were recruited from different locations in UiTM Puncak Alam. Data collection involved a self-report questionnaire with five sections covering sociodemographic and anthropometric information, nutrition knowledge level, use of food and nutrition labels, factors influencing label usage, and preferences for nutrition information formats. The Fisher’s Exact Test revealed no significant association between Body Mass Index (BMI) and nutrition knowledge or nutrition label usage (p>0.05). However, gender is significantly associated with nutrition knowledge (p<0.05). As for nutrition knowledge and nutrition label usage, there was no significant association between the level of nutrition knowledge and the use of nutrition labels during food purchases (p>0.05). To summarize, this research may determine the most recent data on general nutrition knowledge patterns among university students following the COVID-19 outbreak and underscores the importance of nutrition awareness in empowering students to make informed dietary choices, improving their health and well-being, necessitating targeted interventions and further research for a healthier, nutritionally aware generation.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the nutritional content and assess the consumers' acceptance of the sensory attributes of the Super Seed Cookies, which contained sacha inchi nuts, pumpkin seeds, almonds, and oats as added ingredients. The cookie was developed by a company named Mad About Cake. The cookie was analysed by measuring its proximate composition, such as moisture, ash, crude protein, crude fiber, crude fat, and carbohydrate content. This research also discovered the consumers' acceptance of the cookies by undergoing a 7-point hedonic sensory evaluation test among 30 semi-trained panelists. The proximate analysis results revealed that the Super Seed Cookies contained 4.06±0.07% of moisture, 1.80±0.04% of ash, 0.31±0.01% of protein, 3.16±0.00% of crude fiber, 7.67±0.00% of crude fat, and 83.00±0.00% of carbohydrates. In addition, the sensory evaluation results found that the consumers neither liked nor disliked all the sensory attributes of the cookies. In conclusion, improvement of the Super Seed Cookie's nutrient contents and sensory attributes is needed to make the cookies a healthy food product choice and meet the consumer's preferences before the cookies are commercialised to the market.
