Abstract

SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 disease, has affected all regions of Indonesia, leading to an increase in cases and prompting the Indonesian government to impose Large-Scale Social Restrictions (LSSR). Prolonged exposure to LSSR can potentially impact diet, dietary availability, and food preferences. Therefore, understanding the knowledge of dietary recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic is crucial to support individuals in maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle. This study aims to investigate the relationship between knowledge of dietary intake recommendations, food availability, and food selection attitudes among adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional design was employed, and 124 individuals were selected as research subjects using a purposive sampling technique. The data on knowledge, food availability, and attitudes towards food selection were collected through a Google Forms questionnaire. Statistical test was conducted using the Fisher Exact test to determine the relationship between variables. The findings of this study demonstrated no correlation between knowledge and food selection attitude (p>0.05), as well as between food availability and food selection attitude (p>0.05). However, there was a tendency for individuals with good knowledge to have good attitudes and individuals with good attitudes to have sufficient food availability, despite the absence of statistical correlation.

Abstract

Elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) levels indicate the occurrence of cell membrane oxidation. Calorie restriction is known to extend life expectancy. This study aims to investigate the effect of calorie restriction on MDA levels in young and old rats. An experimental approach was employed using Rattus norvegicus Wistar strain as the experimental animals, with a pre-post-test control group design. A total of 28 white rats were included in this study and were divided into four groups. The control groups, Group A and Group B, received standard feed and unrestricted access to distilled water, while the treatment groups, Group C and Group D, were fed with a 40% reduction in calorie intake and distilled water. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 21.0 (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL) with a 0.05 significance level. The results showed a difference in MDA level changes between group B (control group) and group D (treatment group) (p<0.05). This study concludes that MDA levels are higher in the elderly compared to young rats, and a 40% calorie restriction can reduce MDA levels.

Abstract

Malnutrition is part of the geriatric giant and a major concern among community-dwelling elderly individuals. Improper intervention of this problem can have detrimental effects on the elderly. Monitoring nutritional intake plays a vital role in managing malnutrition. Telemedicine has been widely applied for managing chronic diseases and gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic as a remote health monitoring method. This scoping review aims to identify the advantages and limitations of implementing telemedicine for addressing malnutrition in community-dwelling elderly. This study reviewed the literature obtained through a systematic search of PubMed and ScienceDirect databases, supplemented by manual searches based on specific inclusion criteria.  Two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the application of telemedicine for malnutrition were identified. The forms of telemedicine used were telecare and set-top boxes on television. The interventions included nutritional monitoring and specific interventions for each patient. However, high patient dropout rates indicated low patient compliance. Nevertheless, the application of telemedicine demonstrated improved patient compliance with nutritional intake guidelines. Limitations of telemedicine implementation included low motivation, technological constraints, and physiological constraints. Telemedicine may be used as a tool for monitoring nutritional intake among malnourished geriatric populations.

Abstract

Analog rice, also known as artificial rice, is a rice substitute made from a combination of local flours, including sorghum flour, mocaf flour, and glucomannan. Incorporating Moringa leaves into analog rice flour offers potential health benefits due to its anti-diabetic and antihyperglycemic effects, which lowers blood sugar levels and HbA1C levels in individuals with Diabetes Mellitus. This study aims to develop analog rice using a combination of sorghum, mocaf, and glucomannan flour and to determine its sensory properties and fiber content. This study employed an experimental design, with Moringa leaf flour substitutions divided into P1 (0%), P2 (2%), P3 (4%), P4 (6%), P5 (8%), and P6 (10%), using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Sensory evaluation was done using the hedonic test, involving 25 trained panelists who assessed taste, aroma, color, and texture. Fiber content was analyzed using the enzymatic gravimetric test. Data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA test, followed by Duncan’s test if p<0.005. The results showed a significant effect of Moringa leaf flour substitution on sensory evaluation and fiber content (p<0.001 for all comparisons). Based on sensory evaluation, panelists preferred analog rice P2 (2%). The fiber content of analog rice with Moringa leaf flour substitution ranged from 11.16 to 13.65% for insoluble dietary fiber, 0.60 to 0.99% for soluble dietary fiber, and 11.80 to 14.62% for total dietary fiber. Moringa leaf flour substitution had a significant difference in sensory evaluation and fiber content of analog rice. The highest preference level was found in P2 (2%) analog rice, while the highest total fiber content was found in P5 (8%) analog rice.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to a decrease in insulin secretion by pancreatic beta cells and insulin resistance. One of the pillars in the management of T2DM is medical nutrition therapy in the form of a balanced diet. A good intake of carbohydrates and fiber can help control fasting blood glucose levels of diabetic patients. This study aims to determine the relationship between carbohydrate and fiber intake on fasting blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM after the intervention of brown rice diet. The type used in this study was pre-experimental without control variables and the sample was not selected randomly. The design was one-shot case study by looking at the post-test results. The number of samples was 18 people aged 48–60 years. Data analysis used the Shapiro Wilk normality test and Spearman correlation test. The results showed that most of the respondents had normal carbohydrate intake (88.9%) and all respondents had good fiber intake (100%). Most of the respondents had uncontrolled fasting blood glucose levels (55.6%). There is no relationship between carbohydrate and fiber intake on fasting blood glucose levels after the intervention of a brown rice-based diet menu.

Abstract

Brown rice, derived from white rice with the removal of the husk, contains higher dietary fiber and a lower glycemic index than regular white rice. These advantages can be an alternative diet for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease ranked as the fourth leading cause of death in the world, often associated with obesity. In addition, insulin insensitivity in individuals with type 2 diabetes leads to increased hunger (polyphagia) and overeating, resulting in increasing BMI and waist circumference. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the brown rice diet intervention on BMI and waist circumference of patients with type 2 diabetes. This study was a pre-experimental study without control variables and the sample was not selected randomly, using a one-group pretest-posttest design with a 3-month intervention. Data analysis in this study used the Shapiro-Wilk normality test followed by the paired t-test to determine the difference between two paired samples. The statistical results showed significant changes in BMI and abdominal circumference (p = 0.002 and p = 0.008, respectively). In conclusion, there are differences in BMI and abdominal circumference of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus before and after the intervention of a brown rice-based diet menu.

Abstract

Cancer has become a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with approximately 8.2 million deaths attributed to the disease in 2012. Antioxidants have demonstrated potential in combating cancer, and natural sources rich in vitamins, such as fruits and vegetables, are believed to be beneficial. This study aims to assess the chemical and organoleptic qualities of fruit and vegetable juice (tomatoes, Pontianak oranges, and carrots) as functional food for cancer patients. The study used an experimental design with a Complete Randomized Design (CRD) approach, with distinct processing techniques for each treatment level, and three replications were conducted. Data collection involved hedonic scale tests by 20 panelists to evaluate organoleptic quality, spectrophotometric tests to measure vitamin C levels, and DPPH tests to assess antioxidant activity. The results show that the processing of fruit and vegetable juice does not significantly influence vitamin C levels, aroma, or texture (p = 0.50). However, it has a significant effect on antioxidant levels, color, and taste of the juice (p=0.007).

Abstract

The prevalence of stunting in children under five years old has decreased from 25% in 2013 to 18% in 2019 in The Gambia. The consumption of certain food groups, as part of minimum dietary diversity, serves as a measure of the adequacy of nutrient density for children. This study aims to examine the association between stunted children under five years old and types of food sources, as well as wealth status. Secondary data from The Gambia Demographic and Health Survey 2019-2020 were analyzed, involving 2,533 out of 8,362 children. Logistic regression tests were performed with a 95% confidence interval. Staple foods were identified as the dominant food source for stunted toddlers (p< 0.05; OR = 1.78; 95% CI = 1.436-2.216) and considered a risk factor for stunting. Food intake from more than four food sources (OR = 0.6; 95% CI = 0.403-0.88), place of residence (OR = 0.72; 95% CI = 0.53-0.95), middle wealth status (OR = 0.47; 95% CI = 0.33-0.68), and wealthy household (OR = 0.74; 95% CI = 0.52-1.05) were significantly associated with a reduced likelihood of stunting and considered protective factors. The incidence of stunting is linked to the diversity of food sources given to toddlers. In providing care for stunted toddlers at the community level, stakeholders must consider food diversity, economic capacity, and type of residence.

Abstract

Cancer prevalence is steadily increasing each year and becomes the second leading cause of death worldwide. In Indonesia, breast cancer had a prevalence of 16.7% in 2018. Free radicals contribute to the occurrence of breast cancer, while antioxidants play a vital role in protecting cells and repairing the damage caused by free radicals. Ihau, an endemic fruit in Kalimantan Island, contains phytochemical compounds with potential antioxidant and anticancer properties. Utilizing local food as natural antioxidants could serve as an alternative for breast cancer prevention and treatment. This study aims to assess the anticancer potential of Ihau fruit extract on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. A post-test-only control group design method using the MTT assay was used, with two treatment groups: water and 96% ethanol extract, and four different concentrations (125, 250, 500, and 1000 ppm), and each was replicated three times. Statistical analysis using the ANOVA test found no significant difference among all concentrations. The IC50 values of the cytotoxic activity of water and ethanol extracts were 1,197.7 ppm and 1,148 ppm, respectively. It can be concluded that both water and ethanol extract of Ihau fruit exhibited very weak cytotoxic activity.

Abstract

Early detection of nutritional problems is a vital skill for individuals as it enables timely prevention before any symptoms arise. This skill can be fostered through enhancing knowledge, practicing skills via educational activities and mentoring, and seeking support from peers who share similar challenges. This study aims to investigate the impact of peer tutoring on the development of a balanced menu and healthy snack consumption based on fish and vegetables among 11th-grade female students at a state high school in Singosari, Malang Regency. This study examined the effect of these interventions on the intake of energy, protein, and iron among the participants. Data were gathered by collecting food consumption data using the 24-hour food recall method and measurement of weight, height, Hb, and Albumin levels. The study employed a purposive sampling technique by conducting pretest, intervention, and post-test. The results showed significant improvements in the health indicators of the participants, including knowledge, intake, Hb, and Albumin levels (p=0.000; α=0.005). These findings demonstrate the potential of education and mentoring through peer tutoring in promoting healthy eating habits and preventing nutrition-related problems among female adolescents.
