Abstract:Local snacks are used to being consumed by local people, including children under five, but the local cultural products have unbalanced nutritional content, which generally only contains energy sources. On the other hand, in this area also has fish food ingredients such as "cork fish" which are rich in protein and vitamins and minerals. The addition of cork fish flour can produce local food products that contain complete and balanced nutrients for supplementary food for toddlers. This research was carried out … Show more
“…These findings strengthen the results of previous studies that utilize of fish-processed ingredients and products can overcome the problem of height growth disorders in stunting children [9]. The Snakehead fish flour has a high potential for micronutrients, particularly Zn, calcium, phosphorus, and iron, which are very important to support children's height growth [24]. The potential content of these micronutrients is what makes us better in this study.…”
Section: Effects Of Providing Local Snacks Accompanied By Virtual Nutrition Counseling On Growth Of Stunting Children Under Fivesupporting
BACKGROUND: The conducive factor of stunting is the deficiency in nutrient intake due to the lack of quantity and quality of food consumed by the children. Children’s food consumption is strongly influenced by the mother’s nutritional knowledge and children’s feeding practices.
AIM: The aims of this study were to determine the effect of providing local snacks in South Sulawesi with a substitute of snakehead fish flour (Tibus) and virtual nutrition counseling on the growth of stunting children.
METHODS: The design of this study used a randomized pretest-posttest control design. The sample was divided in two groups using systematic random sampling. The first group was given local Tibus snacks and nutritional counseling virtually and the second group was only given virtual nutrition counseling. The intervention was carried out every day until 1 month. The sample of this research was mothers who have stunting children under five of age.
RESULTS: Nutrition knowledge of mothers in group one increased significantly before and after intervention (63.78 ± 1.68 vs. 73.70 ±1.35 points), but this was not the case in group two. The increase in maternal nutritional knowledge was higher in group one than in group two, although it was not significant (p = 0.91). The comparison of the weight gain of children in group one versus group two was 0.37 ± 0.49 kg versus 0.07 ± 0.39 kg (p = 0.021). The increase in the height of the children in group one before and after was 84.15 ± 7.79 cm versus 85.97 ± 7.95 cm (p = 0.000). The ratio of the increase in the height of the children in group one and group two was 1.82 ± 0.94 cm versus 1.53 ± 0.68 cm (p = 0.402).
CONCLUSIONS: Nutrition counseling virtual can increase nutrition knowledge. The providing of local snacks (Tibus) accompanied by virtual nutrition counseling can increase growth in body length and weight of stunting children. The efforts to accelerate prevention stunting in children under five can be done with utilization of local snacks.

“…Figure1. Testing the nutrition of raw materials in this research has the same results as the nutritional content conducted by several previous studies(Onyango et al, 2020;Nadimin & Lestari, 2019;Suarni et al, 2013). The proximate test of modified cassava flour obtained the same results as previous research conducted, where the starch content was around 80%(Onyango et al, 2020;.…”

“…Untuk menunjang program ini, maka diperlukan sumber ketersediaan pangan yang cukup, bergizi, beragam dan bermutu (Azriful et al, 2022). Menurut Nadimin & Lestari (2019), penanganan masalah gizi dengan pemberian makanan tambahan yang berbasis pangan lokal akan lebih mudah diterima oleh masyarakat, di samping juga dapat menjaga stok untuk kesinambungan pemberiannya.…”
Complementary foods for breast milk (MPASI) are additional foods given to babies at the age of 6 months. The still high prevalence of stunting cases in Indonesia is a strong warning to always try to promote prevention efforts. The aim of this community service activity (PKM) is to educate residents of the Southeast Pontianak Subdistrict, Pontianak City in processing MPASI porridge so that toddlers have adequate sources of protein, carbohydrates and fat and are free from cases of stunting. The activity was attended by 30 participants consisting of housewives and young women. Delivery of activity material by means of an educational lecture followed by a demonstration of making MPASI porridge in a participant participatory manner. The results of the activity evaluation showed that there was an increase in the ability of activity participants in cooking MPASI porridge as well as an increase in understanding regarding stunting including the causal factors and prevention efforts
