This research aims to conduct a juridical analysis of cases of circulation of illegal cosmetic products. The method used is normative-dogmatic juridical research, which focuses on relevant legal doctrines and principles. The approach used is a conceptual approach and a statutory approach, with primary legal sources including the Health Law, BPOM Regulations, the Criminal Code (KUHP), and the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP). Secondary legal sources include journals, books, and other references that support the analysis. The results show that the distribution of illegal cosmetic products that do not meet safety and quality standards, as in the case of the defendant Megawati binti Rahmat alias Mega in verdict number 39/Pid.Sus/2020/PN Slr, is a serious violation of health law and consumer protection in Indonesia. Based on the principle of liability based on the element of fault, the defendant can be held legally responsible because it is proven that she distributed cosmetics without a distribution permit containing hazardous substances such as mercury. The Panel of Judges considered that the defendant's actions fulfilled the elements of unlawful acts in accordance with Article 1365 of the Civil Code and Article 196 of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 36 of 2009 concerning Health. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of strict law enforcement and the application of the principle of responsibility to protect public health from dangerous cosmetic products.

This study discusses the effectiveness of digital counseling services as a form of psychological intervention in reducing political anxiety among urban Indonesians in the post-truth era.

These findings recommend the integration of digital mental health services into psycho-political impact mitigation strategies in the digital era.

Drug abuse is a serious problem that not only affects individuals, but also threatens social stability and public health. In response to this problem, the concept of Restorative Justice emerged as a humane alternative that focuses more on restoring the physical, mental and social conditions of the offender. This theoretical study shows that rehabilitation through the Restorative Justice approach is a more humane, effective, and sustainable solution in dealing with drug abusers compared to the conventional prison approach. This research uses a normative juridical research method that is descriptive and analytical, with a library research approach. This method was chosen to examine in depth the concept, regulation, and application of rehabilitation as a restorative justice solution in handling drug abusers. The data used consists of primary data, namely laws and regulations related to narcotics, rehabilitation, and restorative justice, such as the Narcotics Law, Attorney General Regulation Number 18 of 2021, and Police Regulation Number 8 of 2021.Secondary data are academic literature, scientific journals, books, articles, and official documents that discuss rehabilitation and restorative justice in the context of narcotics abuse. Data collection techniques are collected through documentation studies and literature studies. Data analysis used qualitatively consists of normative juridical analysis to examine legal provisions and regulations governing rehabilitation and restorative justice. In Indonesia, the application of rehabilitation as a restorative justice solution has been regulated in various regulations, such as the Narcotics Law, Attorney General Regulation Number 18 of 2021, and Police Regulation Number 8 of 2021. These regulations provide a legal basis for rehabilitation as an alternative to punishment that prioritizes recovery and social reintegration.  

Clean water is a basic necessity that not only affects health but also social welfare and environmental sustainability.

Mercury is a highly toxic and bioaccumulative heavy metal. Despite its prohibition, mercury is still frequently found as a contaminant in cosmetic products, particularly in whitening products. This article aims to review and present various findings from previous studies on mercury levels in cosmetic preparations marketed in Indonesia, analyzed using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). The method employed is a literature review of scientific articles published between 2015 and 2025, selected based on their focus on mercury analysis in cosmetics use of the AAS method. The review results show that the majority of whitening creams and lotions contain mercury levels exceeding the safety limits set by the Indonesian National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM RI), with some samples showing extremely high concentrations reaching thousands of ppm. In contrast, other preparations such as powders, hair dyes, and deodorants generally have low or undetectable mercury levels. These findings indicate a lack of understanding regarding mercury and its dangers, especially regarding compliance with regulations on cosmetic products, especially those sold online. The conclusion of this review emphasizes the need for enhanced regulatory enforcement, stricter supervision, and increased public education to protect consumers from the health risks posed by mercury-containing cosmetics.

Anemia in pregnancy is a condition where the hemoglobin (Hb) level in the blood is less than normal and the hemoglobin (Hb) level in the mother has decreased from the normal Hb level, namely 11 g/dI. One of the main and common causes of anemia in pregnant women is a lack of nutrients. Iron in the body is caused by a lack of food sources that contain sufficient iron, but food sources that have low iron content, so that less iron is absorbed. Apart from the lack of food containing iron, routine antenatal care also influences the occurrence of anemia in pregnant women. Effective antenatal care provides a solid foundation for midwives to first assess the needs of pregnant women and families. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between diet and regular antenatal care with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the working area of the Maron Community Health Center. The design of this study was cross sectional. The population in this study were all pregnant women who were in the working area of the Maron Community Health Center, totaling 79 respondents. The research sample included 44 respondents of pregnant women who were in the working area of the Maron Public Health Center. With random sampling technique. The instruments used were questionnaires and KIA books. The research results show that almost all anemic pregnant women have poor eating patterns and irregular antenatal care. Based on the chi square statistical test, it is known that the P value is 0.000 α 0.05, so HO is rejected and HI is accepted that there is a relationship between diet and antenatal care with anemia in pregnant women in the working area of the Maron Community Health Center. It is hoped that the results of this research can be used to increase insight into health science, especially midwifery, that a good diet and regular antenatal care are very necessary to prevent risks that will occur during childbirth.
