Abstract

Family Medicinal Plants (FMP) have benefits and properties for the health of the body. However, this plant is only used as a kitchen spice alone without knowing other properties. Thus, then created an innovation or new product from the family medicinal plant. The goal is to find out the benefits of herbal beverage products through Organoleptic tests as the body's immunity during the Covid-19 pandemic for the people of Pulau Sejuk Village. This product is called Jakusema Herbal, which consists of ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, and honey. The research design uses a Pre-Experimental Design type One-Shot Case Study with nine panellists as research subjects. The study parameters used organoleptic and qualitative tests of vitamin C with potassium iodine (betadine) to see whether or not vitamin C was present in herbal beverage products. The results showed the best treatment was P2 treatment with consumer-preferred levels reaching: (1) colour 7,055>6,23 (2) texture 9,475>6,23, (3) taste 28,003>6,23, and (4) scent 7,617>6,23. Based on the results of organoleptic tests obtained that P2 treatment has a real influence on herbal beverage products. Furthermore, herbal beverage products were tested qualitatively. Then, P2 treatment has a higher vitamin C content than other treatments seen from discolouration in the product. Due to time constraints, vitamin C testing is only done qualitatively. It is recommended for further research using quantitative tests so that the data of research results are more detailed and accurate.

Abstract

Electrolysis is one of the methods used to remove heavy metal mercury (Hg). The electrolysis process is carried out on residual liquid waste from gold processing by utilizing chemical reactions through electrodes immersed in an electrolyte solution. This research method is experimental. We conducted laboratory tests to see the electrolysis process on the residual liquid waste from gold processing in a 10-liter container. We took samples from 10 different containers, 1 liter each from each tub. Sampling time was carried out in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The results showed a significant decrease in mercury (Hg) levels up to 1.30% with 12 volts of electricity for 100 minutes. In contrast, the lowest decrease occurred in the electric current of 3.3 volts within 25 minutes. We use the electrolysis method. This heavy metal removal technique can be applied and managed properly by the community and local government to minimize heavy metal pollution such as mercury in the surrounding environment due to waste from the community's traditional gold processing.

Abstract

The empowerment of homemakers has a significant effect on the Implementation of Extermination Transport Collection in handling solid waste to improve the cleanliness of the residential environment. The problem in this study is the low Implementation of 3P, where garbage collection is not left correctly scattered; the Transportation of garbage is not routine every day so that the garbage is scattered. Garbage is not destroyed as often as possible so that it harms health. This study aims to assess the feasibility of implementing 3P in dealing with solid waste by empowering homemakers in Drien Rampak Village, Johan Pahlawan District, West Aceh Regency. This research is a sectional observational study with one group pretest post-test design. I conducted in October 2020, which became the population of housewives with a total sample of 45 people. The study results show differences before and after measuring the 3P Implementation with the empowerment of homemakers in improving the cleanliness of the residential environment, as evidenced by the value (Probability 0.000) where there is a difference before and after measurement with a mean value of -1.622. The 3P Implementation by empowering homemakers is feasible. Suggestions for continuing to empower the role of homemakers in implementing 3P solid waste to improve the quality of cleanliness in residential environments.

Abstract

Stunting is when a person's height is less than average based on age and gender. This study aims to determine the strategy of the Nagan Raya Health Office in reducing stunting rates. This type of research used qualitative research. Data collection techniques are observation, interviews, and documentation. Research informants were the Head of the Health Service, Head of Public Health, Head of Family Health and Nutrition, Head of Promotion and Community Empowerment, Head of Environmental Health, Occupational Health, and Sports. Data analysis techniques are data reduction, data management, and concluding. The results showed that the Nagan Raya health department's strategy for reducing stunting rates was quite good. With eight integrated stunting reduction interventions, specific nutrition interventions, and sensitive nutrition interventions collaborated with cross-sectoral involvement. In conclusion, from 8 integrated stunting reduction interventions, the basis is stunting consultation. The obstacles are that it is difficult to use the budget for stunting, uniting stakeholders' perceptions, and the village government lacks knowledge. Supporting resources are sufficient, namely human resources (HR), facilities, and infrastructure, but it is still insufficient in terms of the budget. Suggestions that socialization is given to the village government. It is hoped that the Health Service and government organizations involved will remain consistent and unite their perceptions and maximize their budget.

Abstract

Stunting is one of the essential nutritional problems experienced by toddlers globally, especially in developing countries, including Indonesia. The impact of Stunting is not only in terms of health but also affects the level of intelligence of children. This study aims to find a keumamah product formulation that can be useful for supplementary feeding to prevent Stunting. The research design of this study is the Intact-Group Comparison model with two variables; (1) the experimental group and (2) the control group. To find the result, this research involves two types of test; pre-test and post-test. The pre-test is conducted before the experiment, while the post-test is performed after investigating both sample groups. The content of macronutrients, such as protein, fat, and carbohydrates, is higher in keumamah (Wooden fish), made from fresh fish with an oven drying process. The Keumamah made from fresh fish with the drying method using an oven is also more hygienic than those made from less fresh fish with the traditional drying process (Sun-drying). Keumamah dried in an oven is better than Keumamah dried with the conventional drying process (Sun-drying).
