Abstract

Adolescent girls in developed and developing countries currently are prone to face malnutrition, both over- and under-nutrition. One of the causes is the shift from traditional to modern diets. This study aimed to determine the factors that influence the dietary behavior of adolescent girls in developed and developing countries. Scoping review performed following the PRISMA-ScR protocol with the Population, Exposure, and Outcome (PEO) approach. Described articles were published between 2014 and 2024, including abstracts and full texts from PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct databases. The search used the keywords “eating habits*” OR “diet*” OR “dietary intake”, “adolescent girls*” OR “adolescent women*” OR “young women”. The results showed that diets of adolescent girls in both developed and developing countries correlated with malnutrition, characterized by high consumption of fast food that high in sodium and low in fiber. In developed countries, this resulted in obesity, while in developing countries it caused iron and calcium deficiencies. In developed countries, adolescent diets influenced by bullying and media pressure that idealizes thin bodies, thus triggered irregular eating patterns. Meanwhile, in developing countries, low family income, limited access to healthy food in school canteen, lack of time and cooking skills triggered low-nutrition diets. Parental support played an important role in increasing the consumption of healthy foods. Unhealthy diets increased the risk of anemia, obesity, malnutrition, and other eating disorders. Adolescent girls’ eating behavior influenced by nutritional, social, economic, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors.

Abstract

Tele-exercise delivers remote physical activity programs via digital platforms, enhancing accessibility and adherence, making it a promising strategy to address obesity among workers. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of tele-exercise programs on body fat percentage, lipid profile, mental health measures and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) gene expression measured via venipuncture & RT-PCR in obese office employees. A total of 33 overweight or obese employees (male/female, 18-45 years old, Body Mass Index (BMI) 23-30 kg/m2) were randomly assigned to the strength (SE) group, strength-cardio (SC) group, and control (CT) group. The strength exercise protocol included core training, circuit training, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Tabata training; cardio exercise includes low-high impact aerobic exercises. Each group was given nutrition education, whereas the two intervention groups participated in tele-exercise three times/week for twelve weeks. Tele-exercise was delivered via ZOOM application. Mental health indicators were measured using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42) questionnaire. Compliance levels between intervention groups did not differ significantly (p>0.05). There was a significant reduction in bodyweight in the SC group (p=0.046). Blood High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) levels increased only in the SC group (0.50 mg/dL), but decreased in the SE group and CT group. SIRT1 gene expression increased in SE and CT groups (2.39- and 5.33-fold, respectively), whereas a significant decrease was observed in the SC group (p=0.043). Only the SE group showed a significant reduction in stress level (p=0.03), with a decrease of 30.9%. Strength exercise intervention improves total cholesterol level by -19.09 mg/dL.

Abstract

Yogurt is a fermented dairy beverage made primarily from cow's milk as the main ingredient. The addition of purple sweet potato extract filtrate can provide color and increase the nutritional content of yogurt while enhancing consumer acceptance. This study aims to evaluate organoleptic acceptability and analyze the presence of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), protein content, fat content, and water content in yogurt enriched with purple sweet potato extract filtrate. This study is an experimental study using a completely randomized design (CRD) with one factor. The factor applied was the addition of purple sweet potato extract filtrate (Ipomoea batatas) with treatment units F0 0%, F1 5%, F2 10% and F3 15%. Data were obtained from organoleptic tests of color, aroma, taste, viscosity and overall acceptability by 30 trained panelists. The results of the organoleptic test showed that F3 was the most preferred yogurt formulation with the addition of 15% purple sweet potato extract filtrate. Total Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) in F3 was 2.47 x 108cfu/ml, protein content in yogurt with the addition of purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) extract filtrate (F3) was 0.48%, fat content in yogurt with the addition of purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) extract filtrate (F3) was 0.20% and water content was 82.92%. The F3 product can be classified as a probiotic product based on LAB content, however it needs modification to increase protein and fat content in accordance with SNI 2891-2009 standards.

Abstract

Eggs are a rich source of high-quality protein and essential nutrients, but their limited shelf life and processing-induced nutrient loss pose challenges. Addressing these limitations through fermentation could enhance their nutritional and functional properties. This study aimed to address these limitations by exploring fermentation as a strategy to enhance the nutritional and functional properties of egg-based products. Specifically, the research investigated the effects of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation on the nutritional value, protein digestibility, and shelf life of egg flour, to achieve this, liquid eggs were inoculated with S. cerevisiae and subjected to fermentation at 30°C for 48 hours. The fermented product was then dried at 50°C to obtain egg flour. Nutritional improvements were assessed through in vitro protein digestibility tests, while shelf life was evaluated using the Accelerated Shelf Life Testing (ASLT) method, applying the Arrhenius equation under different storage temperatures. Flour Liquid eggs were inoculated with fermipan and fermented at 30°C for 48 hours, followed by drying at 50°C to produce egg flour. In vitro protein digestibility was analyzed, and the Accelerated Shelf Life Testing (ASLT) method with the Arrhenius equation was used to estimate shelf life under varying storage conditions. Fermentation improved protein digestibility significantly, increasing from 42.60% in unfermented samples to 77.48%. Shelf life analysis showed that fermented egg flour had a stability of 30 days at 30°C, 24 days at 40°C, and 19 days at 50°C.

Abstract

Vitamin C supplements are widely used for their perceived benefits on immunity, collagen synthesis, and overall health. However, limited research has explored their usage prevalence and associated sociodemographic factors among the public. This study aims to examine the patterns of vitamin C supplement use, factors associated with its use, and the reasons for non-use among Malaysian adults. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from March to April 2024 among 408 Malaysian adults, recruited via convenience sampling. Data were collected through a self-administered online questionnaire, which captured demographic characteristics, vitamin C supplement usage patterns, reasons for use or non-use, sources of information and healthcare consultation behaviour. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the data, and chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests were applied to identify associations between demographic variables and vitamin C supplement use. Vitamin C supplement use was reported by 79.2% of respondents, with higher prevalence among females, married individuals, and those aged ≥ 30 years. Key motivations included maintaining health (82.4%) and boosting immunity (84.8%). Pharmacies were the primary source (73.1%), while social media dominated as an information channel. Healthcare professional consultation was low, with only 26.9% consulting doctors and 47.7% consulting pharmacists. Non-users primarily cited preferences for natural sources (55.3%) and adequate dietary intake (29.4%) as reasons for non-use. Vitamin C supplement use is widespread in Malaysia, but low engagement with healthcare professionals and high reliance on non-professional sources suggest a need for targeted education and professional guidance to ensure safe and informed supplementation practices.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that has a broad impact on the health and quality of human resources. To overcome it, effective and collaborative interventions are needed. Rumah Zakat as an Islamic philanthropic institution initiated the Desa Bebas Stunting Program to accelerate stunting mitigation through a community empowerment approach. This study aims to measure the impact of the program using the Social Return on Investment (SROI) method in Tegaren Village. The study was conducted using a mixed-method method, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches through focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, and document studies. The SROI ratio was calculated based on the Net Present Value of Benefit and Net Present Value of Investment. The results of this study showed that based on the SROI calculation, it produced a ratio of 1:2.2, meaning that every IDR 1 investment produced IDR 2,2 in social benefits. This finding showed that the program had a significant impact on beneficiaries, cadres, and the community, and was effective as a community empowerment program in reducing stunting rates. This study also contributed to the development of theories regarding the effectiveness of the distribution of zakat, infaq, and alms as instruments of Islamic philanthropy in creating sustainable social impacts and community empowerment.

Abstract

Sugar palm fruit (kolang kaling) jam was developed using sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) juice as a sweetener and dragon fruit (Hylocereus  polyrhizus) peels as a natural dye. This study aimed to analyze the jam’s Macronutrient composition, organoleptic properties, glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL). Two Jam formulations were tested through organoleptic assessment by 25 semi-trained panelists. The most preferred formula (4:1:2,4 ratio of sugarcane juice, dragon fruit peel, and sugar palm fruit) underwent proximate and glycemic analysis. The jam showed average liking scores of 6.22 (color), 5.52 (aroma), 6.14 (texture), and 6.12 (taste). It had a GI of 68.36 and GL of 17.09, both classified as medium. These findings suggest that sugar palm jam formulated with natural sweeteners and colorants might be suitable for consumption by individuals with diabetes mellitus type 2 in limited portions.
