Effects of fiber and resistant starch in "Mangpis" cookies on changes in blood lipid profile in obese patients obesity
No full textAbnormal lipid profiles can cause obesity-associated heart diseases. Increased total cholesterol, Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG), and High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) levels are indicators of obesity. This study aimed to identify the dietary fiber and resistant starch in mangpis cookies and analyze the effects of mangpis cookies on reducing lipid profiles. This study used a pre-test and post-test design to measure lipid profiles before and after eating mangpis. Mangpis cookies were prepared without wheat flour and replaced with 50% Bruguiera gymnorhiza mangrove flour and 50% banana flour. This experiment was conducted on 16 obese subjects. The sampling technique used was purposive. A decrease in the lipid profile was observed based on the results of blood tests before and after the consumption of mangpis cookies. The effect of the consumption of mangpis cookies on reducing lipid profiles was assessed using the Paired T-test and Wilcoxon test. The analysis results of the food fiber content and resistant starch contained in the mangpis cookies were 7,86 ± 004 and 6,65 ± 0,01 with p-value TG (p=0,001 and HDL (p=0,01). In conclusion, mangpis cookies were identified to contain 17,8% dietary fiber and 15% resistant starch, which could influence the lipid profile, especially TG levels

Women osteoporosis prevention by protein, fat, vitamin D, phosphorus intake and chicken feet cookies consumption as source of calcium
Get PDFOsteoporosis as a major health problem has four times risk in women than men. Protein, fat, vitamin D, and phosphorus are the main nutrients in bone development. Through this study, it can be known protein, fat, vitamin D, and phosphorus changes from the consumption of cookies chicken feet flour (Gallus domesticus), containing 130 mg calcium, equivalent to 15% of RDA to prevent osteoporosis due to low calcium intake with a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test approach with control in women early adulthood for 14 days in Health Office of Tasikmalaya District in June 2022, with 102 people as sample based on Slovin's calculation with 10% of margin error through the multistage sampling method, which consists of cluster random sampling and simple random sampling. Observation of protein, fat, vitamin D, and phosphorus using the semi food frequency questionnaire. Data analysis used Post Hoc LSD. Based on data analysis, it is known that the difference in protein, vitamin D, and phosphorus intake significantly different with p> 0,05 of the three groups each other. While the difference in fat intake significantly different from the positive and negative control groups with p> 0,05.

Get PDFOverweight problems in adolescents tend to increase, with obese nutritional status prevalence for Indonesian teenagers in group aged–13-15 and 16-18 years respectively 11,2% and 9,5%. This study aimed to analyze the effect of skip training on body mass index for age z-score (BAZ), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and muscle strength in overweight adolescent girls. The method of this research was a quasi-experimental design using a subject study of 28 female students, who were divided into two groups: those age between 15-18 years old. This study was conducted at Senior High School 1 West Sumatra and Batipuh from October to December 2023. The skipping group received 4-8 minutes of exercise 3 times per week for 8 weeks of intervention. The statistical analysis employed a paired t-test and simple linear regression test. The results of this study revealed that the skipping intervention had a significant effect on the reduction of BAZ (p0,05; R2=0,049). In conclusion, skipping for a duration–4-8 minutes was conducted three times a week for 8 weeks, which reduced the value of BAZ and WHR in adolescent girls
Effect of fermentation time on dietary fiber content, total sugar content, and organoleptic quality of Jali Tape (Coix Lacryma-Jobi L)
Get PDFThe prevalence of diabetes mellitus (age >15 years) is 1,8% and is increasing every year in Indonesia. Jali seeds (Coix lacryma-jobi L) are known to contain good dietary fiber for people with DM. One of the processed foods from jali seeds is tape. Therefore, tape jali can be used as an alternative snack food for patients with DM. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of fermentation time on the food fiber content, total sugar content, and organoleptic quality of jali tapes. This study was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method. The organoleptic test was carried out in May 2023 by 30 semi-trained panelists from the Nutrition students of the Faculty of Medicine and Health, Muhammadiyah University, Jakarta. Tests for food fiber content and total sugar content were carried out at the PT Saraswanti Indo Genetech laboratory with one control factor, three treatments (48, 72, and 96 h fermentation), and five replications. Organoleptic tests included hedonic quality and liking (hedonic) tests using the questionnaire method, food fiber content tests using the enzymatic-gravimetric method, and total sugar content tests using the Luff Schoorl method. The Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were used for data analysis. The results showed that there were differences in each sample for the quality of aroma, sour taste, sweetness, and texture (p <0,05), and the sample that was most liked by the panelists was TJ2. Laboratory test results showed that the sample with the highest fiber content and lowest total sugar content was TJ2, at 5,72% and 19,1%, respectively. In conclusion, fermentation time has an effect on the dietary fiber content, total sugar content, and organoleptic quality of jali tape
Enhancing stunting prevention: Health promotion at Bandarharjo Health Center
Get PDFStunting is a serious public health problem that affects child growth in many countries. Health promotion programs are key strategies for raising awareness and encouraging behavioral changes to address stunting. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of health promotion programs to prevent stunting. The research design was qualitative with a case study method, and information was collected through in-depth interviews with 13 informants at Bandarharjo Community Health Center (PHC) from October to December 2023 and then analyzed through a series of stages: collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Results: In terms of human resources, Integrated Service Post (ISP) cadres have not received equal training in the use of anthropometric tools. Educational media such as posters and flip sheets are not provided to cadres for use. The facilities and infrastructure at the ISP are inadequate for toddlers. After the Covid-19 pandemic, the implementation of health promotion was strengthened and improved. Increased training for program holders and cadres to improve competence. Educational media have not been fully optimized to convey information about stunting to program targets. Some areas do not have ISP buildings. After the pandemic, the focus of the program implementation was more oriented towards health promotion. Increased supervision is required in health promotion programmes to prevent stunting
Relationship of normal weight central obesity on comorbid diseases: Systematic Review
Get PDFNormal-weight central obesity (NWCO) has a significant effect on Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) and mortality, which are modulated by comorbidities. This systematic review aimed to identify comorbid diseases associated with NWCO. Search for articles published in 2013-2023 using the PubMed, Science Direct, and Scopus databases. Articles were selected based on the inclusion criteria, specifically articles about the relationship between NWCO and comorbid diseases, using English language, observational study design, and can be accessed in full text. Each article was assessed based on sample size, study design, response rate, outcome measurement, statistical analysis, confounding factors, ethics, and research limitations. The results of this study show that NWCO increases the risk of comorbid diseases such as hypertension, CVD, Diabetes Mellitus (DM), Metabolic Syndrome (MS), dyslipidemia, stroke, and hyperuricemia. Hypertension, MS, and dyslipidemia play a role in the incidence of CVD and DM. This study can increase awareness and attention to groups with normal body weights to improve lifestyle, routine health screening, and immediate intervention to prevent comorbid diseases.
