Penyuluhan Gizi Seimbang pada Anak Sekolah Dasar di SD Negeri 3 Badak, Kabupaten Pemalang

Abstract

Indonesian society faces various health problems, one of which is a lack of balanced nutrition. Nutritional intake can affect health, intelligence, and high work productivity. Balanced nutrition counseling at SD Negeri 3 Badak, Belik District, Pemalang Regency aims to increase elementary school children's knowledge about balanced nutritional intake patterns. The method used in this activity is providing education accompanied by questions and answers. This activity lasted for approximately 2 hours. The results of this activity showed that students at SD Negeri 3 Badak were very enthusiastic in participating in the counseling activities. The students listened well during the presentation of the material, so that two-way communication occurred during the counseling. With this balanced nutrition counseling, it is hoped that students can adopt a healthy lifestyle and consume a variety of foods according to their needs. Through this activity, one way to increase a person's knowledge and understanding is by providing nutrition education as early as possible.
