Abstract

Being underweight in children under five in Indonesia is still high. Integrated nutrition service is one of the innovative programs to overcome the underweight problem among under-five children. This study aims to determine the effect of integrated nutrition services on the bodyweight of underweight under-five children in Tanah Garam Health Center, Solok City. The study used a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. As the study subject, we recruited 30 healthy underweight children (WAZ -2<x<-3SD). Data collection includes body weight before and after the 10-days intervention. The body weight difference was analyzed using the dependent t-test. There was a significant change in children's weight as seen from the increase in the weight for age Z score (WAZ) after the provision of integrated nutrition service (P<0.05). About 76% of the subjects had bodyweight improvement. The mean body weight increase from baseline to end line was 0,25±1,17 kg, while the WAZ increased from -2.32 to -2.12 The implementation of integrated nutrition service could potentially improve the bodyweight of underweight children. It is recommended that all healthy underweight children participate in implementing the program.

Abstract

Dadih is a traditional food from West Sumatra made through a 48-hour fermentation process in bamboo. It exhibits a diverse range of nutritional content and active compounds. This research aimed to evaluate dadih from Padang Panjang as a potential functional food for emergency situations. The method involved testing dadih to determine its nutritional content, antioxidant activity, and shelf life. The research results indicated that dadih has a relatively good protein content at 7.55% and an antioxidant activity of 142.49±0.25 mg/kg, falling into the moderate category. Furthermore, dadih boasts an excellent shelf life, lasting up to 6 days at room temperature and 30 days in the refrigerator. In conclusion, based on its nutritional content, antioxidant activity, and shelf life, dadih is considered a suitable candidate for a functional food in emergency conditions.
