Abstract

The increasing reliance on digital health interventions has underscored the need to enhance digital health literacy to improve individual health outcomes and quality of life. This study explores the effectiveness of digital health literacy interventions, including mobile applications, online education platforms, and telehealth services, in improving health knowledge and self-care behaviors. A systematic literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, with selected studies focusing on adult populations and chronic disease management. Findings indicate that digital interventions significantly enhance health literacy and health-related behaviors; however, challenges such as disparities in digital access, socioeconomic factors, and variations in digital literacy levels limit widespread adoption. Comparative analysis reveals that while digital interventions offer advantages in accessibility and engagement, they must be adapted to different demographic and socioeconomic contexts to ensure equity. Policy implications highlight the necessity of investing in digital infrastructure, integrating digital literacy into healthcare education, and implementing data security regulations to foster trust and usability. The study concludes that digital health literacy is a crucial component of modern healthcare strategies. Addressing barriers and optimizing digital intervention designs are essential for maximizing the potential of digital health tools in promoting preventive care and improving public health outcomes. Future research should focus on long-term intervention effectiveness, AI-driven personalization, and culturally inclusive health literacy programs.

Abstract

The issue of wasting remains a major concern, with Indonesia being the second-highest country in the world for child wasting, reporting more than 760,000 cases of malnourished children. This figure poses a serious threat to the future of Indonesia's younger generation. The 2022 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI) shows that Sigi Regency ranks first in Central Sulawesi with the highest undernutrition rate (156%). Numerous toddler food products now include moringa leaves, and the government has addressed undernutrition through programs such as the Supplementary Feeding Program. Moringa leaves have been widely used to tackle malnutrition issues, as applied in Sigi Regency, where moringa and anchovy (Teri) are staple foods of the Kaili tribe. Local food modification efforts are among the strategies to enhance nutritional intake. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of modifying a snack bar made from anchovy fish and moringa leaves to improve weight in malnourished toddlers. The method used was a quasi-experimental design with 40 undernourished toddlers whose weights were measured before and after consuming the modified snack bar. Results showed a significant improvement in the nutritional status of the toddlers, especially for those previously classified as severely malnourished.
