Food Label Reading Education "Makmin Detective" Improves Knowledge, Attitude, and Ability to Read Food Labels Among Adolescents
No full textThe increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases such as hypertension and diabetes in adolescents is a serious concern, mainly due to the consumption of foods high in sugar, salt, and fat (GGL) and the low habit of reading food labels. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge, attitudes, and abilities of adolescents in reading food labels in an effort to prevent degenerative diseases. The education was conducted at MTSS Al-Hasanat, Sigi Regency, through “Detective Makmin” interactive media in the form of modules and wall magazines, accompanied by demonstrations and label reading practice competitions. Evaluation was carried out through pre-tests and post-tests on 24 students using instruments that had been tested for validity. The results of the paired t-test and Wilcoxon showed a significant increase in knowledge (p < 0,001), attitudes (p < 0,001), and the ability to read food labels (p < 0,001) after the intervention. The education provided was proven effective in improving adolescent nutritional literacy, especially in understanding the GGL content on food and beverage packaging. A participatory approach, the use of local media, and active student involvement played an important role in the success of the activity. Similar programs are recommended to be expanded to other schools with digital media development and parental involvement to strengthen long-term impact

Level of Preference and Protein Analysis of Patin Dimsum Substituted with Red Bean Flour as Additional Food for Toddlers
No full textThe supplementary feeding program (PMT) is a crucial nutritional intervention aimed at improving toddlers' nutritional status and meeting their dietary needs. Patin fish, a local food commodity from Riau, has potential for development into attractive processed food, such as dim sum. This study aimed to evaluate the acceptability and protein content of patin fish dim sum with red bean flour substitution. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used, comprising one control (100% patin) and three treatments with varying patin fish and red bean flour ratios: 95%:5%, 90%:10%, and 85%:15%. Sensory evaluation was conducted with 30 panelists and analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by the Mann-Whitney test if significant differences were found. The results showed a significant difference in color (p-value=0,002), while taste (p-value=0,445), aroma (p-value=0,694), and texture (p-value=0,341) showed no significant differences. The most preferred formulation was the control (without red bean flour). However, the formulation with 10% substitution (F2) had the highest protein content at 9.45%, equivalent to 9,45 grams per 100 grams of product. With this level of protein, the patin dim sum qualifies as a high-protein food product. This innovation highlights the potential of locally sourced, nutritious food for children and supports the success of supplementary feeding programs in regions like Riau that rely on local resources
