Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health concern in Bengkulu Province. According to the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (IHS), the prevalence of stunting in Bengkulu reached 20.2%. This study analyzes the relationship between stunting and food security indicators using secondary data from the Bengkulu Central Statistics Agency and the National Food Agency from 2021 to 2023, comprising 30 samples. The analysis showed no statistically significant relationship between stunting and any of the independent variables at the 95% confidence level. The p-values for all variables—including the Food Security Index (FSI), Nutritional Consumption Pattern Ratio (NCPR), poverty rate, food and electricity expenditures, access to clean water, average years of schooling, health worker ratio, life expectancy (AHP), Desirable Dietary Pattern (DDP), Energy Adequacy Ratio (EAR), and Protein Adequacy Ratio (PAR)—were above 0.05. These findings suggest that none of the examined indicators had a significant effect on stunting in Bengkulu Province during the study period.

Abstract

The triple burden of malnutrition (TBM), comprising undernutrition, overnutrition, and micronutrient deficiencies, remains a major nutritional challenge in Indonesia amid rapid economic growth and shifting dietary habits. This study aimed to analyze the prevalence of TBM and its association with maternal dietary patterns using data from 1,005 mother–child pairs in the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey. Complex sample logistic regression was applied to account for the multistage sampling design. The prevalence of TBM was 4.3%. In children, 16.6% were underweight, 21.3% stunted, and 21.7% anemic, while 51.4% of mothers were overweight or obese and 15.0% anemic. Maternal dietary patterns were significantly associated with TBM risk, whereby mothers who rarely or never consumed grilled or charred foods were more likely to belong to non-TBM families (AOR = 8.57; 95% CI: 1.43–51.29; p = 0.018), as were those with moderate consumption (AOR = 4.78; 95% CI: 1.09–20.98; p = 0.038). In contrast, rare consumption of meat, poultry, or fish products with preservatives (AOR = 0.13; 95% CI: 0.02–0.95; p = 0.043) and fruits or fruit-based products (AOR = 0.19; 95% CI: 0.06–0.61; p = 0.005) was associated with a higher likelihood of TBM. A non-linear association was observed for flavor enhancers, where moderate consumption was linked to lower odds of TBM (AOR = 0.33; 95% CI: 0.15–0.73; p = 0.006), whereas rare consumption increased the likelihood of belonging to non-TBM families (AOR = 2.79; 95% CI: 1.04–7.48; p = 0.041). Additionally, moderate consumption of fats and oils was positively associated with TBM risk (AOR = 2.94; 95% CI: 1.01–8.54; p = 0.047). In conclusion, maternal dietary patterns significantly influence TBM risk among Indonesian families.
