Theaim of this research was to determine the effect of giving beetroot (Beta vulgaris L) juice onhemoglobin levels in adolescent girls suffering from anemia at SMA N 1 Talangpadang in 2024.This research method is a quasi-experimental research, non-equivalent control groupdesign. Sampling used purposive sampling. The population in this study were young women who weredivided into an intervention group and a control group, each consisting of 18 people.

Statistical tests use the Paired sampleT-test and the Independent T Test.The results of the study showed that there were differences in the mean hemoglobin levels inthe two groups before and after being given the intervention. In the intervention group the averagehemoglobin level was 0.8 gr/dl and in the control group the average hemoglobin level was 0.2 gr/dl.The results of the Paired T-Test analysis test in the two groups showed that there was a significantinfluence between giving Beetroot Juice + Fe and increasing hemoglobin levels with a p-value of 0.00and there was an influence between giving Fe and increasing hemoglobin levels levels with a p-valueof 0.00.
