Abstract

Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are two non-communicable diseases with increasing prevalence in Indonesia, including in rural areas such as Kamulyan Village, Bantarsari Subdistrict, Cilacap Regency. Both conditions require long-term management using a holistic approach, including integrating complementary therapies based on medicinal plants. Unfortunately, community understanding of herbal medicine's proper and safe use remains limited. This community service program aims to improve the knowledge and skills of residents in Kamulyan Village in utilizing herbal remedies as complementary therapy for hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The implementation methods included health education sessions on the introduction of hypertension and diabetes, as well as education on various types of local medicinal plants that are empirically proven to help control blood pressure and blood glucose levels, such as bay leaves (Syzygium polyanthum), bitter leaf (Andrographis paniculata), Phyllanthus niruri, cat’s whiskers (Orthosiphon aristatus), and Tinospora crispa. In addition, practical training was conducted on preparing and processing these herbs into simple formulations that can be used independently at home, such as herbal teas, decoctions, and dried capsules. The activity was attended by 50 participants: health cadres, elderly residents, and patients with hypertension and diabetes. Through pre-test and post-test assessments, participants’ knowledge and skills related to herbal medicine usage were significantly increased. Participants also demonstrated high enthusiasm for cultivating and utilizing family medicinal plants (TOGA) around their homes. This initiative is expected to be the first step toward community self-reliance in maintaining health naturally and sustainably. In the future, further assistance and cross-sector collaboration are needed to develop the scientific, safe, and effective use of herbal medicine at the community level.

Abstract

This community service program aims to implement the utilisation of eel fish oil (Anguilla spp.) as a health supplement and nutritional enhancer for the community, as well as to develop innovative branding strategies for locally based products in Kaliwungu Village. Eel fish oil is recognised for its high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA and EPA, which are highly beneficial for supporting heart health, brain development, and enhancing the immune system. However, this potential has not been optimally utilised by the local community, despite the abundant eel fish resources in Kaliwungu Village. The activities were carried out in several stages, including educating the community about the health benefits of eel fish oil, training in simple extraction techniques based on appropriate technology, and assisting in product packaging and marketing. In addition, the implementation team developed a branding strategy that highlights local value, product uniqueness, and sustainable economic potential. This approach was implemented through training in label design, brand naming, and the use of social media to expand market reach. The program's results showed increased community knowledge about the nutritional benefits of eel fish oil, improved technical skills in production processes, and enthusiasm for developing value-added local products. Eel fish oil products with local branding have now begun to be marketed within the village and surrounding areas. This program is expected to serve as a model for sustainable, local, potential-based economic development and to promote a healthy lifestyle through the utilisation of local biological resources.
