Abstract

The purpose of this community service is to improve students' knowledge about proper nutrition for adolescents through health education. The education was conducted for 50 minutes using lecture, discussion, and question and answer methods, which discussed the importance of nutrition and nutritional needs that are appropriate to the age and activities of adolescents. After the education, an evaluation was conducted by distributing a questionnaire consisting of 20 questions categorized into three knowledge groups: Good (>78%), Sufficient (56-78%), and Poor (<56%). The evaluation results showed that the majority of students (52.6%) had good knowledge of the material presented, while only 2.6% of students had poor knowledge. These results indicate that the education was successful in improving students' understanding of the importance of nutrition for adolescents, and was able to have a positive impact on their knowledge of balanced nutrition.
