Abstract

This study examines knowledge, attitude and behavior related to dietary salt intake among UiTM Puncak Alam staff. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 300 UiTM Puncak Alam staff. Respondents were recruited conveniently to complete a self-administered questionnaire that provides information on knowledge, attitude and behavior related to dietary salt. Descriptive statistics were used to report the survey findings. Results showed that most of the respondents (95.7%) had a knowledge that overeating salt could damage their health. However, only 35.7% of the respondents recognized the daily recommendation of salt intake and 40.0% of them were able to identify the difference between salt and sodium. Regarding attitude, only 28.3% of respondents believed their salt intake would exceed dietary guidelines. In practice, 31.4% of respondents controlled their salt intake by avoiding consuming processed food, and 18.0% referred to salt labels on food packages. This study showed that UiTM Puncak Alam staff was knowledgeable on particular aspects of salt. However, their attitudes are less favorable, and they need to improve their practices toward dietary salt intake to achieve target salt intake.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between maternal and household characteristics with the Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) occurrence among pregnant women in East Nusa Tenggara (ENT). CED was observed through Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) measurement of <23.5 cm. Utilizing a cross-sectional design using secondary data from the 2018 Indonesia Basic Health Survey (Riskesdas) involving 387 pregnant women. Bivariate analysis (chi-square test) and multivariate analysis (multiple logistic regression) were conducted. Significant associations with the CED included parity (p=0.002), education level (p=0.018), access to hospital (transportation mode) (p=0.032), and access to primary healthcare facilities (travel time) (p=0.032). Multivariate analysis identified parity as the most influential variable for the CED occurrence among pregnant women (p=0.016; OR=1.868). In conclusion, mothers with a parity of less than two or more than three children had a higher risk of experiencing CED during pregnancy in ENT. To prevent CED and its consequences, it is recommended to emphasize family planning, address parity concerns, and prioritize maternal nutritional status before and during pregnancy.

Abstract

The objectives of this study are to investigate the food security issues arising in gastronomic tourism, to verify the food insecurity experiences encountered by tourists, and to determine the tourists’ dining satisfaction from the gastronomic tourism experiences in Malaysia. A quantitative approach was selected for this study. These issues were concluded from the data collection via questionnaire forms disseminated online through multiple social media platforms consisting of 250 participants of both local and international tourists visiting Malaysia. The Independent T-test and Mann-Whitney test were used as the main statistical test to establish if any tourist groups had food security-related issues during their visit. The results showed that local tourists are more likely to be affected by food security issues, food insecurity, and dining experiences. Overall, this study discovered that both local and international tourists have contrasting experiences in gastronomy tourism in Malaysia.

Abstract

This research studied the effectiveness of Sacha Inchi Oil Oleogel (SIOO) as a partial replacement for saturated fat in dark chocolate. Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) oil is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (α-linolenic and linoleic acids) and a good source of tocopherols. This study prepared oleogels using sacha inchi oil as a base oil and food-grade beeswax as an oleogelator. Different percentages of SIOO (1%, 2.5% and 5.0%) were added in the dark chocolate. Dark chocolate without SIOO was used as a control. Fatty acid profile, total polyphenols, antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation of the formulated dark chocolates with SIOO were investigated. The incorporation of SIOO significantly (p<0.05) lowered the saturated fat and increased the polyunsaturated fatty acids in dark chocolate samples. This study also showed that the total polyphenols and antioxidant activity of dark chocolates enriched with 2.5 and 5.0% SIOO were significantly higher (p<0.05) than the other chocolate samples. Sensory evaluation showed that control and dark chocolates added with SIOO (1% and 2.5%) received similar scores for all sensory attributes. However, the highest concentration of SIOO decreased significantly (p<0.05) the scores for the taste and overall acceptability of dark chocolate. Therefore, the enrichment of sacha inchi oil oleogel as a functional ingredient could reduce the saturated fat and increase the polyunsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant activity of the formulated dark chocolate, which is well-accepted by consumers.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the prebiotic potential of the banana peel on the growth of probiotic Lactobacillus spp. in vitro and to utilize the peel as a functional ingredient in preparing biscuits. Peels of dessert banana (pisang berangan) and plantain (pisang nangka) were oven-dried and homogenized, and the total sugar content was determined. Subsequently, different cultivation media were made by substituting the carbon source with Banana Peel Powder (BPP), Plantain Peel Powder (PPP), glucose, and inulin. These media were later fermented with probiotic Lactobacillus spp., extracted from a probiotic drink. The growth performance was accessed following 24 hours of incubation. BPP and PPP were incorporated into the preparation of biscuits as functional ingredients. A portion of wheat flour was substituted with 10%, 20%, and 30% of BPP and PPP, respectively, during the preparation of the biscuits. These biscuits were then analyzed for proximate composition, physical properties, and estimated Glycaemic Index (eGI). The supplementation of BPP and PPP in the media improved the probiotic bacteria's growth rate and generation time as the media had a significantly higher amount of Lactobacillus spp. compared to others. Both BPP- and PPP-supplemented media had significantly low pH, indicating intense metabolic activity of the bacteria utilizing the peels. Results also showed significant differences in the total dietary fiber and protein content of BBP- and PPP-incorporated biscuits. The addition of BPP and PPP did not significantly affect the physical properties of the biscuit, and such incorporation resulted in lower eGI when compared to the control. BPP and PPP possess potential prebiotic properties and can be utilized as functional ingredients. Further study is warranted to explore other prebiotic properties of banana peels and to investigate consumers' acceptance of banana peel-incorporated foods.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and determine the content and face validation of eHealth website that can function as a one-stop information center for parents, caregivers, teachers, and healthcare professionals on early childhood nutrition. This study was divided into two phases. Phase 1 involved website development and was executed in three steps: Step 1: Need Assessment, Step 2: Design Arrangement, and Step 3: Website Construction. Phase 2 involved website validation, which included content validation by six professionals in nutrition/dietetics and early childhood education fields and face validation by six professionals and 50 target users, including parents, caregivers, nursery or preschool teachers, and students. The content validation obtained a score of 1.00. The face validation by professionals exceeds the minimum value of 80% except for the Quality of Information. In comparison, face validation by the users exceeds 80% except for Subjective Quality. Krippendorff’s Alpha for each validation was below 0.66. In conclusion, the content validation of the website indicated high agreement, while the face validation indicated sufficient by the professionals and target users. The website will be a good start for intervening in long-term nutrition-related issues such as non-communicable diseases and obesity, as eating habits and food choices from young affect future health outcomes.

Abstract

This cross-sectional study aimed to identify the nutritional status, Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) regarding stunting among mothers and its relationship with stunting among children below two years old in Terengganu. A total of 330 mother-child pairs from Terengganu were recruited through purposive sampling. Anthropometric measurement comprised weight and height. Information on socio–demographic, and a validated questionnaire on knowledge, attitude and practice of stunting were selfreported. Chi-square test was applied in this study with p<0.05 considered significant outcome. The majority (61.2%) of the mothers aged 30−39 years old, with tertiary educational level (51.5%) and in the low income group (86.4%). The prevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight was 25.2%, 9.4% and 14.2% respectively for the children below two years old in Terengganu. KAP analysis revealed that 44.5% of mothers had moderate level of knowledge, while 68.8% and 92.7% had good level of attitude and practice, respectively. A significant association (p<0.05) was found between knowledge of mothers with stunting among the children, while no significant association between attitudes and practice with stunting. The present study found that mothers’ knowledge significantly impacted their child’s growth status in relation to stunting. Future intervention programmes should incorporate nutrition education focusing on mothers’ knowledge to prevent stunting among children.

Abstract

This study aims to look at improving the quality of nutritional status data through WHO Anthro training in stunting focus areas. This study used a quasi-experimental quantitative method with a pretest-posttest equivalent repeated measures framework approach, using two groups. A total of 40 kindergarten teachers were sampled, divided equally into two groups. The control group was taught how to plot nutritional status using WHO charts and the intervention group was trained how to use the WHO Anthro application. Data was analyzed by non-parametrical means with a Friedman test to compare the pre-mid-post data in each group of different samples. The group trained by WHO Anthro showed that the data quality on nutritional status was significantly different, with a p=0.000. The evaluation conducted after two months of training proved to be significantly different in terms of information and data accuracy with p=0.030 and p=0.040, respectively. WHO Anthro is proven to be able to facilitate kindergarten teachers in determining the nutritional status of students, and the resulting nutritional status reports are of higher quality because they are more accurate and useful for early detection of stunting in each school.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the association between sociodemographic aspects and nutritional status among rural Setiu, Terengganu schoolchildren. A cross-sectional study using convenience sampling was conducted among 269 primary school children. Sociodemographic information was obtained from parents or guardians through face-to-face interviews, and standardized techniques and calibration were adopted for anthropometric measurements. The World Health Organization Anthro Plus was used to generate the z-scores for Weight-for-Age (WAZ), Height-for-Age (HAZ), and Body Mass Index-for- Age (BAZ) to indicate underweight, stunting, and obesity among the children. Chi-squared test was used to determine the association between sociodemographic factors and nutritional status. The children exhibited mean WAZ, HAZ, and BAZ scores of -0.66, -0.82, and -0.00, respectively. Approximately 13.8% of schoolchildren in this study were stunted, 16.7% were underweight, 8.9% were overweight, and 11.5% were obese. Age and the father's education level were significantly associated with WAZ (p=0.02 and p=0.001), household size was associated with HAZ (p=0.029), and BAZ was found to be associated with the father's income factor (p=0.03). This study discovered that the majority of results from the measurement of WAZ, HAZ and BAZ were in normal growth with 81 (79.4%), 230 (85.5%) and 196 (72.9%), respectively. In conclusion, this study indicates that most of the sociodemographic factors were not associated with nutritional status and the prevalence of malnutrition among primary school children in the rural areas of Setiu, Terengganu was lower than in the other rural areas.
