Abstract

Background: Adolescents are a vulnerable group to nutritional problems that may affect growth, health, concentration, and academic achievement. Based on the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI), 7.6% of adolescents aged 13–15 years were underweight or severely underweight, 12.1% were overweight, and 4.1% were obese. The Free Nutritious Meals (Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) Program is one of the government’s efforts to support the nutritional needs of school-aged children. However, students’ frequency of consuming the meals provided through the program may vary and may be associated with nutritional status. Purpose: To analyze the relationship between consumption of Free Nutritious Meals and nutritional status among students at SMPN “X” Bandar Lampung in 2026. Method: This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 100 students were selected using simple random sampling. Data on MBG consumption were collected using a structured questionnaire, while nutritional status was determined based on body weight and height measurements using body mass index-for-age (BMI-for-age/BAZ) according to z-score values. The relationship was analyzed using Fisher’s Exact test. Results: A total of 77 students (77.0%) had good nutritional status. Regarding MBG consumption, 60 students (60.0%) were categorized as frequent consumers, while 40 students (40.0%) were categorized as infrequent consumers. Among frequent consumers, 44 students (73.3%) had good nutritional status, whereas among infrequent consumers, 33 students (82.5%) had good nutritional status. Fisher’s Exact test showed a significant relationship between MBG consumption and students’ nutritional status (p = 0.011). Conclusion: There was a significant relationship between consumption of Free Nutritious Meals and nutritional status among students at SMPN “X” Bandar Lampung in 2026.

Abstract

Background: The development of digital technology has changed food consumption patterns, including through Online Food Delivery (OFD) services, which provide convenience in obtaining food. This convenience may influence dietary patterns and nutritional status among university students, including nutrition students who have knowledge related to food and nutrition. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the relationship between Online Food Delivery use and dietary patterns with nutritional status among students of the Nutrition Study Program at Universitas Mitra Indonesia. Method: This quantitative study employed a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 170 active students of the Nutrition Study Program at Universitas Mitra Indonesia in the 2022–2025 academic years, with a sample of 132 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Data on OFD use were collected using a questionnaire, dietary patterns were assessed using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and nutritional status was determined based on Body Mass Index (BMI). Data were analyzed using the Pearson Chi-Square test and Spearman's Rank correlation test. Results: OFD use was most frequently categorized as moderate (37.1%), dietary patterns were predominantly categorized as moderate (35.6%), and nutritional status was most commonly classified as normal (39.4%). The Pearson Chi-Square test showed significant relationships between OFD use and nutritional status and between dietary patterns and nutritional status (p<0.001). Spearman's Rank correlation showed a strong positive relationship between OFD use and nutritional status (r=0.597; p<0.001) and between dietary patterns and nutritional status (r=0.667; p<0.001). Conclusion: There were significant relationships between Online Food Delivery use and dietary patterns with nutritional status among students of the Nutrition Study Program at Universitas Mitra Indonesia. Practical nutrition education regarding healthy food choices through OFD services should be strengthened as an effort to promote healthier dietary patterns and prevent nutritional problems among university students.

Abstract

Background: Dysmenorrhea is one of the most common reproductive health problems experienced by adolescent girls and can interfere with daily activities, learning concentration, and quality of life. One non-pharmacological approach that may help reduce dysmenorrhea pain is the consumption of dark chocolate. The magnesium, flavonoids, and theobromine contained in dark chocolate are thought to contribute to muscle relaxation and help reduce menstrual pain. Purpose: To determine the effect of dark chocolate administration on the intensity of dysmenorrhea pain among adolescent girls at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Karanganyar. Method: This quantitative study employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The study population consisted of 30 eleventh-grade adolescent girls at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Karanganyar who participated in the Youth Red Cross extracurricular activity and experienced dysmenorrhea. Total sampling was used. Dysmenorrhea pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. Results: The mean dysmenorrhea pain intensity before dark chocolate administration was 5.70 ± 1.26, while after dark chocolate administration it decreased to 3.10 ± 1.18. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test showed a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference in dysmenorrhea pain intensity before and after dark chocolate administration. Conclusion: Dark chocolate administration has an effect on reducing dysmenorrhea pain intensity among adolescent girls at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Karanganyar.

Abstract

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease / NAFLD) is one of the diseases often found in hepatology. Patients with NAFLD will experience elevated levels of Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) and Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT) Serum, these events can be reduced by improving lipid profiles and liver damage due to free radicals. Papaya flowers contain flavonoids and tannins which is can inhibit fatty liver accumulation and reduce cholesterol. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of papaya flower extract on serum SGOT and SGPT levels in rats fed a high-fat diet. Method: This experimental design with true experiment, with a sample of 25 male Sprague dawley strains (Rattus norvegicus) which were divided into 5 groups, the control group was the group given the standard diet, the negative control group was only given a high-fat diet and treatment group 1 to treatment 3 was a group that was given a high-fat diet and papaya flower extract with different doses (31mg / 100grBB, 62mg / 100grBB, and 125mg / 100grBB). Results:  The results of paired T-test and One Way ANOVA analysis showed a decrease in SGOT levels at doses of 32 and 64 m / 100 grBB and decreased SGPT levels at doses of 32 mg, 64 mg, and 125 mg / 100 grBB (p <0.05). Giving papaya flower extract can reduce SGOT and SGPT levels significantly (p <0.05). Conclution: The Conclusion from this study are that given carica papaya flower extract can lower SGOT and SGPT in the serum of rats.
