ABSTRACT Background: Stunting is a serious problem in Indonesia that must be addressed immediately. The main cause of stunting is due to the lack of public nutrition, especially in couples of childbearing age and childhood. Even though Indonesia is rich with a variety of local food sources, it is necessary to innovate in making food that has high nutritional value by utilizing existing local food sources. The purpose of this Community Service is to identify local food sources that are widely available in the village of Surajaya, formulate food products to increase their nutritional value based on local wisdom, and assist the community in manufacturing, packaging and labeling. The methods used are Focus Group Discussions, demonstrations, and mentoring. Result: A new food product has been made, namely cassava nuggets enriched with Moringa leaves. Conclusion: cassava as a local food source can be used as a new food product that is rich in nutrients and can be used as an alternative stunting prevention food that is in demand by the public.

Background One of the health problems that still exist in Indonesia is the death of children under five years of age (toddlers). malnutrition status is still be the big cause. The condition of providing nutrition to children in Indonesia is very bad compared to the nutrition of children in the world. Therefore, this is a very important to children get good and balanced nutritional intake to support the child's growth in the future and permanently and at high risk, namely stunting. The purpose of this community service is to provide counseling on nutrition fulfillment in preventing stunting in toddlers. The method of implementing community service is directly using counseling methods, and physical examination of toddlers at posyandu in Rawang Itek Village, Panton Labu District, North Aceh Regency. The results of counseling and physical examinations at the posyandu indicated that the nutrition of toddlers in Rawang Itek village was in a good category, only mothers who had toddlers were still not doing frequent and routine health checks up for toddlers by bringing their children to the posyandu. Conclusion of community service it can be concluded that the role of the mother is very important in the development of toddlers. Toddlers must be routinely brought to the posyandu and carry out physical examinations and checks for nutritional status.

Medokan Ayu Village is 3 km from the UPN "Veteran" East Java campus. The location of this service is located in Griya Amerta Housing RW 15, Medokan Ayu Village. Like housing in general, residential land area is usually relatively small, has relatively narrow yards and the distance between houses is also close to each other. So that the area of ​​the yard owned by the community for cultivating crops while developing agriculture is not very supportive. Verticulture or what can be called vertical farming is a system of cultivating plants vertically, so that the planting medium is put in a container that stands and rises up. This cultivation technique can be used in two ways, namely with water and soil as the planting medium. Pakcoy can be harvested when it is 40-50 days old, while curly lettuce can be harvested when it is 40-60 days old. This verticulture cultivation uses a mixture of several planting media such as soil, cocopeat, roasted husks, and kohe. The goal is for the plants to meet their nutritional needs and nutrients, so that the plants can grow optimally and have good quality.  

The problem of malnutrition status is a serious concern in children and teenagers because it affects their growth and development period. Nutritional status really  affects physical development. Nutritional status is influenced by eating habits and daily physical activities. Lack of physical activity is increasing the chance of being overweight or obese. The aims of this research were to examine the correlation between physical activity and nutritional status of the students in VIII and IX grades at MTS Negeri 1 Murung. This research was conducted by using the observational method and cross sectional design. The research was conducted from July to December 2022 at MTS Negeri 1 Murung, in Central Borneo province. The sample of the research was 166 students.

Background: The burden of malnutrition in Indonesia is quite large, with more than a quarter of the adolescent population aged 16-18 years, 27 percent experiencing stunting and 8 percent being underweight, the prevalence of anemia in young women aged 13-18 years is 22.7 percent. The highest prevalence of chronic energy deficiency (CED) in women of childbearing age is experienced by adolescents aged 15-19 years, reaching 36.3%. Nutritional problems in adolescents have serious implications for the health of young people, affecting the well-being of current and future generations, as well as the economy and health of countries. In particular, the nutritional status of adolescent girls is closely related to pregnancy outcomes and the health and survival of mothers and children. Objective: To identify the diversity of food consumption and nutritional status of young women who live in boarding houses Methods: This study is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design that aims to identify the diversity of food consumption and nutritional status of female adolescents living in boarding houses. The sample in this study were young women who had just entered higher education at the age of 18-19 years, who lived in boarding houses, totaling 49 people. The diversity of food consumption was identified using the Semi Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Nutritional status was assessed based on body mass index and upper arm circumference. Results: The diversity of food consumption of respondents was low at 46.9%, the nutritional status based on BMI was mostly in the normal category, namely 71.42%, the nutritional status based on the LiLA category was lacking, namely 46.93%, there was no relationship between BMI and diversity in food consumption (P Value 0.13, but there is a significant relationship between the diversity of food consumption and LiLA (P Value 0.02). Conclusion: Diversity in food consumption is low and there are nutritional problems in young women living in boarding houses.

One of the main activities of hospital nutrition services is the provision of meals for patients in the hospital. The goal is to provide quality food in accordance with the nutritional needs, cost, safety and acceptance of the patient to achieve optimal nutritional status The food management information system currently used in the Nutrition Installation of Rsud Prof. DR H M Anwar Makkatutu Bantaeng is still using a manual (conventional) system, starting from calculating the need for foodstuffs to ordering foodstuffs. This is due to the unavailability of applications that can more efficiently save energy and time. So far, calculating food needs requires a long time and energy is needed by more than one person. The type of research method used in this research is a quantitative quasi-experimental research method which aims to show a causal relationship and to investigate the relationship and clarify the causes of events, where in this study it focuses on the use of energy and the duration of time used before and after using the application. computers for food management activities in the Nutrition Installation, in this case the calculation of food needs. Based on the results of the research, before and after using a computer-based management information system application to improve the efficiency of food administration at the Rsud nutrition installation, Prof. DR. HM Anwar Makkatutu Bantaeng (SPMIG), there was a difference in time duration, where the time used in calculating the need for foodstuffs was shorter or shorter. Food administration at the Nutrition Installation of Prof. DR H Makkatutu Bantaeng Hospital before using the SPMIG application software an average of 180 minutes - 210 minutes and after using the SPMIG application software the average was 1 - 10 minutes, so the time difference used was 170 minutes.

Malnutrition has always been a global problem and is the main cause of child mortality in developing countries. Nutritional status is a measure of success in meeting the nutritional needs of toddlers which can be seen from the achievement of toddler's weight. The short-term effects of malnutrition on toddlers are physical growth disorders in children, metabolic disorders, brain development disorders, and intelligence disorders. In the long term, malnutrition will cause a decrease in learning outcomes and cognitive abilities, decreased immunity, the risk of developing diabetes, heart and blood vessel disease, obesity, stroke, cancer, and disability in old age. To find out about the growth and development of early childhood, especially in relation to the development of early childhood nutritional values, regular measurements of the height and weight of toddlers from an early age are carried out through Posyandu activities. Toddler height and weight data will be grouped according to the nutritional characteristics of each toddler. In this study, infants will be clustered based on their nutritional characteristics using the K-Means algorithm clustering method. Based on the evaluation results, the number of clusters 3 is more optimal than the number of clusters 5 in the toddler dataset used in the study. It is hoped that the research results obtained can serve as a basis or recommendation material for posyandu throughout Indonesia to determine the nutritional status of the under-five age group, so that the handling is more appropriate and can help prevent malnutrition in under-fives.

The provision of nutrition education and healthy food for pregnant women and toddlers is crucial in promoting maternal and child health. This project aims to implement a nutrition education program at the Kemuning 2 Keturen Integrated Health Post (Posyandu) to improve the nutritional knowledge and practices of pregnant women and caregivers of toddlers. The project will involve a series of educational sessions conducted by healthcare professionals and trained volunteers. The sessions will cover topics such as the importance of balanced nutrition during pregnancy, appropriate complementary feeding for infants and young children, and the selection of nutritious foods. Visual aids, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations will be used to enhance the learning experience.

Local partnerships will be established with farmers, suppliers, and community organizations to ensure the availability of fresh and nutritious ingredients. The project's success will be evaluated by assessing the participants' knowledge and practices related to maternal and child nutrition before and after the intervention. Feedback from participants and healthcare providers will also be gathered to assess the program's effectiveness and identify areas for improvement. By providing nutrition education and access to healthy food, this project aims to empower pregnant women and caregivers of toddlers in making informed choices regarding their own and their children's nutrition. Ultimately, it is expected to contribute to improved maternal and child health outcomes in the Kemuning 2 Keturen community.

High microbial contamination in food is an indicator of hygiene that determines the health of food for consumption. Meatballs are a very popular snack in Majene City. Apart from their delicious taste, meatballs also have a relatively cheap price, so they have always been a popular snack alternative. The high nutritional content in meatballs can be a medium for the growth of bacteria so meatballs can be carriers of disease. The aims of this study were to determine the total number of bacterial contaminants and identify the coliform in meatballs at Majene City. The study used a quantitative descriptive method with a sample of 10 traders. The test carried out was culturing bacteria on NA (Nutrient Agar) media to calculate the total number of microbes in meatballs using the Total Plate Count (TPC) method and EMBA (Eosin Methylene Blue Agar) media to determine the presence of coliform bacteria in the sample then continued with gram staining test. The results of the study showed that 3 samples were found on NA media which had microbial contamination levels exceeding the threshold specified in SNI (Indonesian National Standard) 3818:2014 where the highest amount allowed was 1 × 105 cfu/g. Samples that exceeded the threshold namely sample A was 1.33 × 106 cfu/g; sample C was 1.06 × 105 cfu/g; and sample G was 5.8 × 106 cfu/g. There were 5 samples that tested positive for coliform, namely samples A, B, C, D, and G

Anemia is a health problem throughout the world, especially in developing countries where an estimated 30% of the world's population suffers from anemia. In Indonesia, one of the problems faced by adolescents is the problem of micronutrient nutrition, namely around 12% of male adolescents and 23% of female adolescents experience anemia, which is mostly due to iron deficiency (iron deficiency anemia. Anemia in adolescents specifically experienced by female adolescents will have a more serious impact, considering they are prospective mothers who will become pregnant and give birth to a baby, thus increasing the risk of maternal death, premature birth and low birth weight babies (LBW).The government has a routine program related to the distribution of iron tablets for women of childbearing age (WUS ), including adolescents and pregnant women. To support this program requires a good understanding for young women regarding anemia and the importance of blood-supplementing tablets, one of which is providing counseling to students at MTs N 1 Sumbawa with the aim of increasing knowledge about the dangers of anemia and the importance of taking tablets added blood. This community service activity was carried out on May 26 with the result that the knowledge and understanding of students about anemia was getting better, students also knew that taking iron tablets was important. Students are also motivated to meet their nutritional needs and increase adherence in taking iron tablets regularly.

Hydroponics is a method of cultivating plants that does not use soil media but emphasizes meeting the nutritional needs of plants. Hydroponic cultivation requires less water than soil cultivation. Maintenance of hydroponic cultivation is very easy and can be done at any time regardless of the season. Cultivation of plants planted namely pakcoy. One of the advantages of growing pakcoy plants hydroponically is that they are very resistant to pests and diseases, so there is no need to control pests and diseases. The development of pakcoy hydroponic cultivation is used as an appropriate technology that is applied at SDN Wonosalam 1. The hydroponic system at SDN Wonosalam 1 is implemented as an alternative to supporting cultivation for adiwiyata classes and also as an introduction to students about hydroponic cultivation. By going through several stages of implementation, such as the initial seeding stage to the final harvesting stage, the hydroponic system involving Wonosalam 1 Elementary School students can be said to be successful in harvesting. It is hoped that this activity will provide knowledge and experience to all students of SDN Wonosalam 1

Indonesia is a country with a stunting prevalence that can still be categorized as high with a prevalence rate of 24.4%. Various efforts have been made by the government to be able to overcome the stunting problem that occurs through various policies and regulations as well as through national strategies and interventions. This paper aims to explain the national policies and regulations and strategies used on tackling stunting in Indonesia. The method used in this research is a literature study method where the technique is through library data collection, reading and taking notes, and managing research materials. Indonesia already has a number of national policies and strategies on stunting that are realized in the form of interventions both specific and sensitive. Specific interventions are carried out by the Health sector by focusing on priority goals and important goals, while sensitive interventions are carried out by sectors outside Health where they are carried out to increase access to nutritious food; increase awareness, commitment, and nutrition parenting practices of mothers and children; improve access and quality of nutritional and health services; and improve the provision of clean water and sanitation facilities. Policies and regulations that exist at the central level, must also be followed by follow-up in the regions to the village level and involve not only the health sector but also other related sectors.

One of the principles that must be considered in a balanced diet is food diversity. Children often refuse foods they don't like and only choose foods they like, so they need to be introduced to a variety of foods to optimize the achievement of balanced nutrition. Consumption of a variety of foods in toddlers can guarantee the completeness of the nutrients their bodies need, because each food contains a different source of nutrients, both in type and amount. Sushi is a popular food and easy to make. Sushi and fruit satay have good nutritional content for toddlers. Making sushi and fruit satay aims to provide food choices for toddlers that are nutritious and easy to make. The implementation of the activity was carried out by means of direct demonstrations, participants tried directly to make sushi and fruit satay with the ingredients provided. Participants were very enthusiastic doing the practice of making sushi and fruit satay.

The patients with chronic kidney failure, if they do not limit their intake of fluids, food and an appropriate daily diet, it will cause malnutrition and accumulation of fluid in parts of the body, including the face, hands and feet. Fluid buildup can also occur in the abdominal area or what is usually called ascites. Ascites is an important problem and often occurs in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Ascites will cause stomach enlargement and excess weight gain. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of patient diet compliance on the development of ascites in kidney failure patients in the hemodialysis unit at Tk Hospital. II dr. Soedjono Magelang. This type of research is descriptive analytic using a cross-sectional method. The sampling technique used the Purposive Sampling method with a sample size of 46 respondents. Statistical analysis uses the chi-square test. The results of this study showed p=0.002, which means there is an influence between diet compliance and the incidence of ascites in the Hospital Hemodialysis Unit. Kindergarten II dr. Soedjono Magelang. The more patient compliance with a nutritional diet will have a better impact on the development of ascites.

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that is a national development priority listed in the 2020-2024 RPJMN. Trends and targets for reducing stunting have progressed but are not yet significant. Of course, several causal factors are still found, so empowerment is needed to accelerate stunting reduction. The main focus in handling stunting is the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK) which is carried out at Posyandu. Cadres who play an important role in driving posyandu are expected to have good knowledge and high motivation in efforts to prevent stunting. The aim of this activity is to empower health cadres and families to increase knowledge about preventing stunting by implementing the Balanced Nutrition Pyramid and Monitoring the Growth and Development of Toddlers. The target of this activity was cadres and families in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District with a total of 42 participants (21cadres and 21 families). Empowerment activities use the lecture method followed by a question and answer session. The results of the activity showed that 71.4% of cadres and families had good knowledge. It is hoped that empowerment of cadres and families can be implemented consistently and continuously so that it can improve cadre performance and family understanding in implementing the Balanced Nutrition Pyramid and Monitoring Toddler Growth and Development as an Effort to Prevent Stunting
