Abstract

Background: Complementary feeding is crucial for children's growth and development, especially between the ages of 6 to 24 months. Adequate nutritional intake during this period can prevent long-term health issues, such as stunting and obesity. However, many mothers struggle with providing appropriate complementary feeding due to a lack of knowledge and inappropriate feeding practices. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the Emotional Demonstration (Emo Demo) method in improving maternal knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to complementary feeding. Methods: Using a pretest-posttest control group design, 100 mothers with children aged 6 to 24 months were assigned to one of three groups: control (lecture), demonstration, and Emo Demo. Data were collected via questionnaires and observational assessments at multiple intervals to measure the sustainability of behavior changes. Statistical analyses, including ANOVA and Least Significant Difference (LSD) tests, revealed that the Emo Demo method significantly enhanced knowledge, attitudes, and feeding practices compared to traditional methods. Results: The study found no significant demographic differences between groups. ANOVA showed significant improvements in knowledge, attitudes, and behavior (p-value<0.05). LSD analysis revealed significant changes in the Emo Demo group (p-value=0.010 for knowledge and behavior, p-value=0.028 for attitude), indicating its effectiveness in improving complementary feeding practices. Conclusions: Innovative and emotionally engaging methods like Emo Demo can effectively address the challenges of complementary feeding, ultimately contributing to public health efforts to reduce stunting in Indonesia. Further research is recommended to refine educational strategies for improving maternal nutrition practices in diverse communities.

Abstract

The prevalence of anemia in Indonesian adolescent girls reaches 15.5%. Blood supplement tablets are still not accepted by young women. This study was conducted to evaluate the acceptability and iron content of Keloreal. An experimental method was applied, utilizing a hedonic scale to assess attributes of taste, aroma, color, and texture, and the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method to determine iron content in the best formula. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by the Mann-Whitney test. The MS0 formulation received the highest overall hedonic scores. However, among the two treatment formulations, MS2 was more acceptable to the panelists due to its milder bitterness and less prominent moringa flavor, leading to better acceptance compared to MS1.  Iron levels measured using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method were 0.0596 mg/g for the MS2 formulation and 0.0756 mg/g for the control (MS0). Despite the lower iron concentration, MS2 is considered a potential alternative snack due to its elevated levels of complementary micronutrients that play a synergistic role in supporting iron metabolism and erythropoiesis.

Abstract

Inadequate organic waste management in rural communities poses significant environmental and public health challenges, necessitating sustainable interventions at the grassroots level. This community service initiative aimed to establish waste management capacity in Gambang Village, Gudo District, Jombang Regency, through the implementation of Takakura composting systems toward achieving Ecovillage status. The intervention employed a mixed-method approach combining physical resource provision, educational counseling, and hands-on training. Ten Takakura composting units were distributed to health cadres, accompanied by comprehensive training sessions on composting techniques and organic waste utilization. Educational materials were delivered by faculty and students from the Environmental Health Department of the Surabaya Health Polytechnic, Ministry of Health, to health cadres and community residents. Knowledge acquisition was assessed through pre-post test measurements across multiple environmental health domains. Results demonstrated substantial improvements in participant knowledge: biopore understanding increased from 15% to 70%, infiltration well comprehension rose from 10% to 80%, and dental health awareness improved from 13% to 74%. The composting demonstration activities generated considerable enthusiasm among health cadres, evidenced by active participation in discussion forums and question-answer sessions regarding Takakura tool applications and benefits. The intervention successfully enhanced health cadres' practical skills in compost production and organic waste management. This community-based approach demonstrates promising potential for replicating sustainable waste management practices across neighboring communities, thereby advancing the broader objective of establishing Self-Reliant Waste Villages (Ecovillages) in rural Indonesia. The integration of participatory training methods with tangible resource provision proved effective in fostering community ownership and sustained behavioral change in environmental health practices.
