<p><em></em><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Remaja putri merupakan kelompok anemia berisiko tinggi dibandingkan putra dengan prevalensi di Indonesia 26,5%. Penelitian quasy experiment dengan desain pre-post intervention bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh pendidikan gizi terhadap pengetahuan gizi dan konsumsi zat gizi remaja putri. Sampel berjumlah 51 orang yang dilakukan di SMP Negeri 21 Medan tahun 2015. Pendidikan gizi diberikan dua kali dengan metode ceramah, tanya jawab dengan booklet. Asupan gizi diketahui dengan metode food recall 24 jam (dua kali). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa skor pengetahuan gizi meningkat dari 62,39±12,05 poin menjadi 72,31±17,01 poin. Asupan gizi (protein, vitamin C, vitamin A, asam folat, besi, zink, tembaga) mengalami penurunan sesudah intervensi. Ada perbedaan bermakna (p&lt;0,05) skor pengetahuan gizi sebelum dan sesudah intervensi. Tidak ada perbedaan (p&gt;0,05) asupan gizi sebelum dan sesudah intervensi. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa pendidikan gizi hanya meningkatkan pengetahuan gizi remaja putri, tetapi tidak meningkatkan asupan gizi.<br /><br />Kata Kunci : pendidikan gizi, asupan gizi, remaja putri, anemia</p><p> </p><p><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p><em>Adolescent girls are high risk to anemia rather than boys with prevalence in Indonesia 26,5%.

Indonesia has the fifth-highest level of stunting in the world. Stunting was the most severe problem that was impeding child growth and development. This study aims to determine the relationship between the characteristic of the mother with the incidence of stunting in under-five children (24-59 months) in North Sumatera in 2013 This study, we took data from the 2013 Indonesian National Basic Health Survey (RISKESDAS), with a sample of 573 children. For this study, Data were collected using a questionnaire and processed using Chi-square test (α=0.05). Variables that are used include mother's age, height, education, and occupation. The result reveals that prevalence of stunting among children is 40.3%. Prevalence of mother's height in category 150-155 cm is 35.6%. Most of the mother in this research at 24-35 years old (65.4%), higher education (86.4%), and has no fixed monthly income (80.1%). Chi-square test results showed mother's height, education and occupation were connected with stunting. The result of multivariate analysis showed that the variable which had the most dominant influence as the determinant of the incidence of stunting was mothers' education (OR = 1.9; 95% CI 1.188-3.133; p=0.08), It is suggested that families to the family (parents) to pay attention to education, especially for girls.

AbstrakMasalah gizi memiliki dimensi yang luas apabila konsumsi gizi pada balita tidak seimbang maka akan berakibat terjadinya permasalahan status gizi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan perilaku gizi seimbang pada keluarga dengan status gizi pada anak balita usia 2-5 tahun. Desain penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah mixed method, dimana kualitatif dengan model sequential explanatory, dan kuantitatif dengan rancangan cross sectional. Metode analisis menggunakan Chi-Square yang digunakan untuk menganalisis model pengujian Univariat dan Bivariat. Populasi yaitu seluruh balita yang berada di Wilayah Kerja UPT Puskesmas Idi Rayeuk sebanyak 2209 orang balita dan jumlah sampel sebanyak 96 responden.Wawancara dilakukan terhadap 5 informan dengan menggunakan instrumen indep interview. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa status gizi balita mayoritas normal (61,4%). Hasil analisis bivariat menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara perilaku gizi seimbang yang meliputi pengetahuan (Pv= 0,000), sikap (Pv=0,033) dan tindakan gizi seimbang (Pv=0,000) dengan status gizi balita usia 2-5 tahun. Berdasarkan penelitian kualitatif diperoleh informasi bahwa masalah gizi pada balita juga dipengaruhi oleh sosial ekonomi keluarga, pola asuh yang salah serta kebiasaan (budaya) masyarakat. AbstractNutrition problems have broad dimensions if nutritional consumption in infants is not balanced, it will result in nutritional status problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of balanced nutritional behavior in families with nutritional status in children aged 2-5 years. The research design used in this study is a mixed method, where qualitative with a sequential explanatory model, and quantitative with a cross sectional design. The analysis method uses Chi-Square which is used to analyze the Univariate and Bivariate testing models. The population is all toddlers in the UPT Idi Rayeuk Puskesmas working area with 2209 toddlers and a total sample of 96 respondents. Interviews were conducted with 5 informants using the indep interview instrument. The results showed that the nutritional status of children under five was normal (61.4%). The results of bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between balanced nutritional behavior which included knowledge (Pv = 0,000), attitude (Pv = 0.033) and balanced nutrition actions (Pv = 0,000) with the nutritional status of toddlers aged 2-5 years. Based on qualitative research, information is obtained that nutrition problems in toddlers are also influenced by socioeconomic families, wrong parenting and community (cultural) habits.

Rice is the staple food of more than half the world's population. Mixing rice with other food ingredients to become the staple food is never done; therefore the dependence on rice becomes very high. The source of food that contained carbohydrate is diverse such as potatoes, wheat, bananas, cassava and others. This study aims to determine glycemic index and nutrient composition of rice purple sweet potato. The type of research is an experimental study to create a new staple food by mixing rice with purple sweet potato. The main object of research is rice and purple sweet potato with ratio 1: 1 and a blood sample of the subject. The subjects were six women who analyzed their blood glucose levels at every 15 minutes during the first 1 hour and every 30 minutes during the second hour. The results showed the nutrient composition of rice purple sweet potato among others: the water content 53.7%, ash 0.2%, 4.4% protein, 0.6% fat, 40.7% carbohydrates, crude fiber 0.17 %, and the energy content is 235 kcal. The glycemic index in rice purple sweet potato with white bread as food reference is 67 which are included in the category of food that has a moderate glycemic index (55-70). The rice purple sweet potato potentially as a staple food with a lower glycemic index than the staple food white rice with glycemic index 89. Further research about the glycemic index of rice purple sweet potato as a mixture with other compositions need to do for the purpose of food diversification.
