The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between respondent knowledge and the level of compliance of respondents in consuming TTD with a value of p = 0.005 and there was no significant relationship between respondent attitudes and the level of compliance of respondents in consuming TTD with a value of p = 0.347. From the results of the study, it is recommended that pregnant women's awareness be increased to consume good TTD in order to achieve optimal nutritional status for the mother and her fetus.
