Instant Noodle Consumption Education Among University Students is a program aimed at raising awareness of the dangers of excessive instant noodle consumption and the importance of a balanced diet. A situational analysis using a questionnaire based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) provided foundational information on students' perceptions of instant noodles, serving as the basis for developing educational media. Next, a combination of poster and educational video media was used to encourage students to limit their instant noodle consumption. Educational content was shared through the social media platform Instagram to reach a larger student audience, leveraging this platform's capacity for rapid and widespread information dissemination. The results showed an increase in students' awareness about balanced nutrition and the health impacts of instant noodles. Ongoing education is expected to help foster healthier eating habits among students.

Nutritional knowledge is knowledge about food and nutrients, sources of nutrients in food, food that is safe to consume so that it does not cause disease and how to process food properly so that the nutrients in food are not lost and how to live healthily. One of the factors that influences eating patterns is the level of nutritional knowledge. A person's level of nutritional knowledge influences eating behavior in choosing food which determines whether it is easy for a person to understand the benefits of the nutritional content of the food consumed. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between nutritional knowledge and instant noodle eating patterns among Papuan students at Halu Oleo University. This research uses quantitative research and the type of research is observational analytics with a cross sectional design. The results showed that the majority of respondents had a poor level of nutritional knowledge (75%), while only 25% of respondents had high nutritional knowledge. This shows that even though students are in a higher education environment, their knowledge about nutrition still needs to be improved. Most respondents (52%) consume instant noodles 2-3 times a week, with the main reasons being ease of preparation (65%) and affordable price (20%). This consumption is more dominant among students who live in boarding houses or dormitories compared to those who live with their families. It is hoped that this research will be useful for subjects to balance their eating patterns and have self-control because the majority of subjects have uncontrolled eating patterns due to living in boarding houses or dormitories so that their body health continues to be maintained. Apart from that, subjects can also pay more attention to nutritional balance in consuming food in order to achieve optimal nutritional status.
