Abstract

Digital technology has brought about a revolution in personalized nutrition for Millennials and Z generations, who increasingly rely on artificial intelligence (AI)-based apps for dietary recommendations tailored to individual needs. These apps analyze personal data such as weight, height, physical activity and food preferences to provide more relevant advice. Devices such as smartwatches also help track diet and healthy living habits. However, challenges related to data privacy and security are still major issues that require strict regulation. On the other hand, digital technology is also expanding access to nutrition education through more interactive e-learning platforms, webinars and digital modules, enabling more enjoyable and effective learning. In addition, online communities that support healthy lifestyles are growing in popularity, providing motivation and useful information. Gamification approaches in nutrition education also help encourage active participation with diet challenges and virtual rewards. However, the digital divide in remote areas remains a major obstacle in ensuring equitable access. This research aims to explore the role of digital technology in improving nutrition awareness among the younger generation, using a qualitative approach through phenomenological and case study studies. The findings are expected to provide insights into the potential and challenges of using technology in nutrition education as well as recommendations for more inclusive and safe development

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the negative impacts of instant food consumption on children's health. Instant food is often consumed because of its ease of preparation, but its nutritional content is not balanced. The method used is a review of literature studies from various health journals, nutrition articles, and reports from international health organizations such as WHO. The literature reviewed focuses on the impact of instant food consumption on children's physical and mental health. The results of the study show that instant foods that are high in salt, sugar, fat, and preservatives can cause various health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cognitive development disorders. In addition, high levels of sodium and trans fat in instant foods can affect the body's metabolic function, increasing the risk of chronic diseases later in life. Lack of fiber intake in instant foods also contributes to digestive problems and lack of essential nutrients for children. Therefore, it is important for parents to be more selective in choosing the food consumed by children. Reducing the consumption of instant foods and replacing them with more nutritious foods is very necessary to support optimal child growth and development
