Abstract Nursing mothers belong to one of the vulnerable groups of nutrition, because breast milk which is the main food for babies is obtained from the mother. Therefore, mothers who are breastfeeding must be controled to the intake of nutrients consumed. green beans as a food source of vegetable protein which has been very popular in everyday life. Based on the amount every 100 grams, protein is the second main constituent after calories, which contains 22.2% protein. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of consumption of mungbean juice on breast milk production in nursing mothers. This research is a quantitative study with a pre-experimental design with one group pretest posttest, with a population of 20 breastfeeding mothers (0-2 months) and a total sample of 11 nursing mothers who delivered at Klinik Pratama Tutun Sehati. Data collection uses an observation sheet using indicators of Smooth Milk Production. The characteristic equality test showed that there was an effect of consuming mung bean extract on breast milk production in nursing mothers (p> α, α≤0.05). The results of the analysis test with the Wilcoxon test showed that there was a smooth effect of breast milk production (p = 0.046). It was recommended for nursing mothers whose milk was not smooth to pay attention to nutritional intake in order to improve the quality and amount of milk production, in packaging because the price is also affordable.
Woman menopause in hypertension is often associated with increase vascularity and physiological changes during menopause. This study aims to examine the effect of celery leaf stew on blood pressure levels in menopausal woman in hypertension. This study was a quasy experiment with pretest-posttest control group design, conducted in the Sidodadi Village District Beringin, Deli Serdang on Januari to March 2020. There were 28 participants selected using purposive sampling, with 14 assigned in the experimental and control group. Data were analyzed using paired t-test and unpaired t-test. There were statistically significance difference of blood pressure levels before and after intervention in the experiment group with p value sitolic level 0.000 dan diastolic level 0.001 (<0.05). Celery leaf stew has a significant effect in reducing blood pressure level in menopausal woman in hypertension. This intervention could be applied as an alternative theraphy in treating menopausal woman in hypertension.
Heavy metals are one of the most dangerous hazards of food products. This study aims to determine the processing flow of frozen escolar fish fillets by observing the cold chain process. The research methods are carried out by applying cold chain, as well as testing the quality and safety of raw material and final products. The parameters tested were Total Plate Count (TPC), histamine, heavy metal tests, and observation of the application of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) at PT. XYZ, as well as descriptive data analysis and heavy metal monitoring observations. The results showed the quality of raw materials and final products organoleptic values of 8, TPC of 5.5 x103 and 5.5x102, histamine of 2.1 ppm and 2.4 ppm, and heavy metals of raw materials (lead 0.057 mg/kg, cadmium 0.011 mg/kg, mercury 0.037 mg/kg - 0.410 mg/kg). PT. XYZ establishes Critical Control Points (CCP) at the stage of receiving raw materials, metal detecting, and packing and labelling. Supervisor and testing of heavy metal mercury are carried out every three months, lead and cadmium are carried out every six months, on raw materials from each supplier enter the company. Sampling for heavy metal testing was carried out on three size groups, namely size 10-20 kg, size 20-30 kg, and size 30 kg. In conclusion, the organoleptic value, TPC, histamine and heavy metal (mercury, lead and cadmium) were in accordance with the standard. This is the result of the application of the international standard HACCP, which ensures the quality of frozen fish fillet to provide food quality and safety for consumers.
the baby and affects the biological health of both mother and baby. However, the breastfeeding process could be hampered due to problems, one of which was mastitis. Mastitis occured due to the narrowing of the lactiferous ducts in the breast and the mother may have flat, sunken or immersed nipples. So that the breasts become swollen, painful when pressed so that the mother feels breast discomfort. The impact of mastitis greatly affected the health of both mother and baby. The mother would felt pain during breastfeeding so that she could experience high fever. Whereas in infants the need for breast milk was not optimal from the content of the milk. One of the efforts that could be done to overcome the occurrence of mastitis in nursing mothers was by applying a potato compress. This study aimed to determined the effect of potato compresses on non-infectious mastitis in nursing mothers. The research method used was pre-experiment (quasi-experimental) using the one group pre-test-post test technique. The population of this study were breastfeeding mothers with non-infectious mastitis with a sample size of 10 people with a purposive sampling technique. The results showed that using the Paired Sample T-Test analysis test obtained a p-value of 0.000 <α = 0.05, it can be concluded that there was an effect of Potato Compress on Non-Infectious Mastitis in Breastfeeding Mothers. It is recommended that health workers provide information for breastfeeding mothers about potato compresses to treat non-infectious mastitis. Keywords: Potato compress; non-infectious mastitis.
