STUDI ASUPAN GIZI ENERGI DAN PROTEIN SERTA RIWAYAT SAKIT TERHADAP STATUS GIZI ANAK BATITA PADA MASYARAKAT LAMALERA
Abstract
ABSTRAK
Status gizi anak batita merupakan indikator penting dalam menentukan kualitas kesehatan dan perkembangan anak dimasa awal kehidupan. Di Desa Lamalera, keterbatasan akses terhadap pangan nabati serta tingginya konsumsi pangan hewani dari hasil laut, seperti daging ikan dan ikan paus, menjadi ciri khas pola makan masyarakat. Tingginya kejadian penyakit infeksi ringan seperti demam dan flu juga turut menurunkan asupan serta penyerapan gizi anak. Kondisi ini mendorong pentingnya kajian terhadap asupan energi, protein dan riwayat sakit dalam hubungannya dengan status gizi anak batita. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan studi asupan energi dan protein serta riwayat sakit terhadap status gizi anak batita pada masyarakat Lamalera. Jenis penelitian adalah kuantitatif dengan rancangan cross-sectional. Besar sampel penelitian sebanyak 60 anak batita dan di pilih secara cluster random sampling. Pengolahan data dilakukan secara komputerisasi dengan analisis data menggunakan uji chi-square. Asupan energi dan protein yang tidak mencukupi serta riwayat sakit dalam sebulan terakhir terbukti berpengaruh terhadap status gizi anak batita di Desa Lamalera. Anak dengan asupan energi dan protein yang kurang serta riwayat sakit memiliki risiko lebih tinggi mengalami status gizi kurang. Hasil ini menekan pentingnya intervensi gizi serta pengendalian penyakit infeksi pada anak usia dini untuk mencegah masalah gizi diwilayah pesisir dengan keterbatasan akses pangan.
ABSTRACT
The nutritional status of toddlers is an important indicator in determining the quality of their health and development in early life. In Lamalera Village, limited access to plant-based foods and high consumption of seafood, such as fish and whale meat, characterize the community's dietary patterns. The high incidence of mild infectious diseases such as fever and flu also reduces children's nutrient intake and absorption. This condition emphasizes the importance of studying energy and protein intake, and medical history in relation to the nutritional status of toddlers. This study aims to determine the relationship between energy and protein intake and medical history and the nutritional status of toddlers in the Lamalera community. This study was quantitative with a cross-sectional design. The sample size of 60 toddlers was selected using cluster random sampling. Data processing was carried out computerized with data analysis using the chi-square test. Insufficient energy and protein intake and a history of illness in the past month have been shown to influence the nutritional status of toddlers in Lamalera Village. Children with insufficient energy and protein intake and a history of illness are at higher risk of malnutrition. These results emphasize the importance of nutritional interventions and control of infectious diseases in early childhood to prevent nutritional problems in coastal areas with limited access to food.
