Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is considered scary because it is chronic and leads to complications from other serious diseases. However, the good news is that DM can be prevented and controlled. The heart, blood vessels, kidneys, eyes, nerves, and other organs can become involved. Therefore, non-pharmacological (lifestyle modification) control of physical activity is necessary to manage DM. One solution is yoga practice. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of yoga exercises in reducing blood sugar levels in diabetes mellitus sufferers. This research design is an analytic experiment with a quasi-experimental design using a non-equivalent control group approach and involving a control group not treated with the same pre and post-treatment samples (paired samples). A sample of 24 people. The research location is Tamalanrea Community Health Center, Makassar, Indonesia. The results showed a significant difference in GDS levels before and after yoga exercise. This is supported by the mean value of GDS levels, which decreased 74.25 mg/dL after yoga exercise. The correlation strength of the intervention is 0.965, so it can be said that yoga exercise is powerful in reducing GDS levels in DM patients. It was concluded that there was a significant difference in GDS levels before and after yoga exercise. The research contribution is recommended to provide education to patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 to increase physical activity as a way of non-pharmacological therapy to keep blood sugar levels in a normal state.

Abstract

Children who experience stunting in the early stages of life up to five years of age will not reach their maximum physical and mental/intelligence potential in adulthood. The problem of stunting is in the world's attention, and it is evident that one of the targets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to reduce cases of stunting worldwide. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the history of CED in pregnant women and the incidence of stunting. This research method is analytic with a case-control retrospective approach. The sampling technique used was proportional sampling, which in this study was divided into two groups, namely 24 groups of toddlers with stunting and a control group of 24 toddlers who were not stunted in Kacangan Village, Andong District, Boyolali Regency, Indonesia. The results show a significant relationship between the history of CED during pregnancy and the incidence of stunting. It is hoped that midwives can provide counseling and monitor the nutritional status of pregnant women, bearing in mind that if the nutritional status of pregnant women is good, it can reduce the incidence of stunting in toddlers. The contribution of this research is to provide information regarding the importance of the nutritional status of pregnant women.

Abstract

Smartphone apps have been used to promote healthy eating and weight management, as they offer low costs, reduce burdens, and overcome the limitations of traditional in-person programs. The aim of this research is to determine the use of smartphones as a technology-based intervention on managing nutrition. The review method focuses on the relationship between smartphones and healthy diet and nutrition, analyzing 178 articles published up to 2023. The review identified three qualitative studies and five randomized controlled trials investigating the effectiveness and acceptability of smartphone apps for promoting healthy eating and weight management. The results show that a study on the effectiveness of smartphone applications in promoting healthy eating and weight management found that middle-aged men in Australia support using the Internet for improving dietary habits and physical activity, as long as the interventions are user-friendly and efficient . However, they show low commitment to online activities and reluctance to use regular mobile phones for health behavior modification. The study also found that smartphone apps can be effective in promoting healthy eating and weight loss, making them a potentially valuable and cost-effective tool for improving dietary habits, nutrition, and combating obesity. In conclusion, Smartphone applications could serve as an effective and affordable method for improving dietary habits and tackling obesity among the general public. Measurements of diet and nutrition taken through mobile devices are often accurate. The contribution of this research is to increase smartphone users' knowledge to help in monitoring their food consumption and managing their weight.
