Abstract

The incidence of type 2 diabetes in Ambon City continues to increase. Increasing age has the opportunity to reduce body system functions so that a person has the opportunity to suffer from type 2 DM. This activity aimed to detect early the risk of suffering from DM in the age group 40 years in order to take preventive and countermeasures so that the incidence of DM can be prevented or controlled. The activity method was preceded by screening for risk factors for patients who visited the Nania Health Center for one week, followed by health education, distribution, and explanation of modules and mentoring. The results showed that 82.2% of respondents were at moderate to high risk of suffering from type 2 diabetes. Factors associated with this risk were BMI, waist circumference, consumption of vegetables and fruit, physical activity and exercise, and a history of suffering from hypertension and hyperglycemia. This community service activity can motivate most respondents to increase fruit and vegetable consumption, limit carbohydrate and sugar intake, and physical activity in the form of a morning walk after dawn prayer for 30-60 minutes.   ABSTRAK Kejadian penyakit DM tipe 2 di Kota Ambon terus mengalami peningkatan.
