Adequacy of nutrition is needed by a person from the womb to adulthood. Pregnant women are one of the groups of people who are prone to malnutrition. One of the nutritional problems in pregnant women is iron anemia (Fe). Pregnant women are said to be anemic if their Hb level is <11 g / dl, anemia can also occur due to an increased need for a person's body, for example during menstruation, pregnancy and childbirth, while the iron that enters is only a little, it is highly recommended to consume food that comes from animal protein such as fish. , meat, eggs and milk. Objective: to examine the relationship between the adequacy of animal protein consumption on hemoglobin (Hb) levels of pregnant women in Johan Pahlawan District, West Aceh Regency. Methods: This study is a quantitative study with a cross sectional design. The population in this study were all pregnant women in the second and third trimesters who were recorded at Puskesmas Johan Pahlawan and Suak Ribee, West Aceh district in February 2020, totaling 165 people, the sampling technique used the purposive sampling method using the Slovin formula with a sample of 62 people. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between the consumption of animal protein intake and hemoglobin levels in pregnant women with a p value = 0.022.

ABSTRACTThe nutritional problem has happened in Indonesia. One of them is toddler malnutrition. Children who are malnourished have a low immune system. Thus it is susceptible to infectious diseases. Factors that can prevent nutritional problems in toddlers include the age of weaning and the toddler's immune system. Breastfeeding until the two-years-old, weaning, and body resistance will also affect the toddler's nutritional status. The research aimed to identify the risk factors of disease history on toddler stunting's nutritional status in Pidie Jaya District. The research's implementation was descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional research design with a sample size of 34 people—data on weaning patterns and disease history obtained through interviews with questionnaires. Anthropometry measurements obtained the nutritional status data of toddlers. Analysis used chi-square test. Based on the results, most of the 14.7% of toddlers had a history of fever, 52.95% of unwilling toddlers. Toddlers with well nutritional status with weight-for-age index 64.7%, skinny nutritional status with weight-for-height index 55.9%, short nutritional status with height-for-age 52.9%, and regular dietary status with BMI-for age index 73.5%. Conclusion there was an influence of children's history disease in the last three months on nutritional status in the index height-for-age P-value = <0.015 (<0.05) with OR 6.0, but there was no influence of sick history on nutritional status with index weight-for-age, weight-for-age and BMI-for-age (P-value >0.05). It was important for the mother to implement a healthy lifestyle, environmental hygiene, and hygiene of the food history to become better.

Background and Objective: Chlorpyrifos [O, O-diethyl-O-(3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridyl)-phosphorothioate] (CPF) is a broad-spectrum Organophosphate insecticide that are used in many farms and homes. Despite the several reported toxicity in humans, there has been virtually no alternative effective insecticide. Thus, the amelioration of the toxicities seems the best option in alternative medicine. This study, therefore, investigated the effects of methanol extract of Diospyros chloroxylon leaf (MEDCL) on the brain and heart of rats exposed to CPF. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four rats were randomized into four groups of 6 rats each, and treated separately with distilled water (Control), CPF (5 mg/kg), MEDCL (100 mg/kg) and MEDCL (100 mg/kg) + CPF (5 mg/kg), following 7 days of acclimatization. After 4 weeks of treatments, the rats were sacrificed, and the levels of Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), Malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), Glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and DNA fragmentation were spectrophotometrically assessed in the brain and heart, while Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities were assessed in the serum and brain of the rats. Results: The results showed that CPF significantly reduced the levels of SOD, CAT, GSH, GPx and GST, while that of MDA was elevated in brain and heart, compared with controls. Treatment with CPF significantly lowered the activities of AChE in serum and brain by 94% and 48% respectively, while the level of DNA fragmentation was significantly elevated in the CPF-treated rats. Supplementation with MEDCL significantly ameliorated the changes in the rats. Conclusion: From the foregoing, the suppressive potential of methanol extract of Diospyros chloroxylon leaf is marked indicated in brain and cardiac redox imbalance induced on exposure to Chlorpyrifos.

Obesity is one of the most important health problem in the world. Elevated mortality risk can be seen with obesity, diabetes, hypertension, glomerular hyperfiltration, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular diseases. However, it has been observed that obesity positively affects survival especially in people with chronic kidney disease, elderly people, chronic heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer, acquired immune deficiency syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis. This situation has been called the obesity paradox. Studies are showing that the obesity paradox is valid in dialysis patients. Examinations have shown that the obesity paradox is affected by many factors such as ethnic origin, fat-muscle mass, and body mass index (BMI). The hypothetical pathophysiology of the obesity paradox reveals how obesity improves survival in chronic kidney disease.

The year 2020 was awash with Covid-19 (also known as the corona virus) contraction numbers, details, and death tolls. As a country, we are now moving into a new stage as more people receive the Covid-19 vaccine. There have been lots of myths and fallacies regarding the vaccine such as “when a person gets vaccinated a microchip is implanted with spying capabilities” or “the vaccine will give you the virus.” I am happy to say that none of these urban legends are true. However, with all the talk about Covid-19 vaccines and how one will feel afterward, focusing on foods that sooth the body and make you feel better after being vaccinated is a positive, proactive way to help your body recover and perhaps ease your mind just a little. Food does not just nourish the soul; it also has many healing properties that can give your body a boost and may help to prevent and manage some symptoms [1].

It is evident that childhood obesity is a significant public health issue that is associated with various health morbidities [1]. Globally speaking, as of 2019, it was estimated that 38.2 million children under the age of 5 years were overweight or obese (World Health Organization, 2020). Additionally, over 340 million children and adolescents aged 5-19 were overweight or obese in 2016 (World Health Organization, 2020). Adding to this issue are the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on children’s physical activity and nutrition across the world. Childhood obesity and COVID-19 is a “double hit” on adolescents’ health and their learning outcomes, exacerbating the issue of obesity even further.

The prevalence of malnutrition and stunting in under five Creche of any rural private school in Owerri North L. G. A was investigated. Owerri North is made up of seven districts namely Egbu, Emekuku, Emii, Ihitte/Ogada/Oha, Naze, Obibi-Uratta and Orji. A random selection of four schools were made and the schools include; Oxford Foundation Academy, Ulakwo, Rhema Kiddies School, Amaorie, Noble Star Academy, Orji and St. Carols Nursery and Primary School, Ulakwo. These schools were selected because they meet the set out standard and quality for Nursery Education. The study adopted a cross-sectional design involving 250 pupils from four schools. Simple random selection by balloting was used to select the children from the schools. The questionnaire was validated and pre-tested by lecturers in the Nutrition and Dietetics Department, and data on anthropometric indices- weight and height, BMI and MUAC; socio-demographic status, dietary pattern and frequency of food consumption were collected. Results obtained showed that one hundred and twelve (44.8%) under five were males while 138 were females (55.2%). About 209 (83.6%) were from Imo state and of the Igbo ethnic group240 (96%). Five (2%) of the respondents were between the ages of 6 to 12 months, 114 (45.6%) were aged between 1 to 3 years, and 130 (52%) were aged 3 to 5 years. The socio-demographic data of the respondents showed that was 2.8%, stunting 3.2%, and underweight was 1.6%. The mid-upper arm circumference measurement showed that only 3 (1.2%) of the children were malnourished, while 242 (96.8%) were normal. This study shows that stunting, underweight and wasting results from a complex interaction of factors. Poor Socioeconomic and environmental conditions are important determinants of nutritional status. Poor nutrition knowledge as a re3sult of limited access to nutrition education also leads to poor food choice by the mothers. Therefore, education of women should be treated with utmost priority because it will help raise the standard of living of the family and pave way for a better socio-economic status and healthier food choice.

University life is a critical period of change in eating habits. Weight gain is a serious problem among youths who are experiencing a change in university life. Universities are potentially important settings for promotion of healthy diet and weight management practice for healthy future. Present study aimed to assess physical activity, eating habits and their association with body mass index (BMI) in dietetics students at Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA). A total of 126 students were involved in answering a set of survey questions as well as weight and height measurements. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0. Result showed that, 9.5% of dietetics students were obese and 25.4% were overweight. Breakfast was the most frequently skipped meal (71.4%) with the main reason of time management followed by busyness in attending lectures and doing readings. Majority of students (73%) will take a snack when they skipped their meal time. Most of the students consume fruits sometimes (55.6%) and 37.3% of them also consume vegetables sometimes.
