Meniran tea is a functional beverage that contains a variety of active components. Meniran tea contains a variety of active components including flavonoids which act as antioxidants. The purpose of this study was to study the formulation of meniran leaf tea (Phyllanthus niruri) as a functional drink. The design used in this study is an experimental design with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Meniran leaf tea formulation is done by mixing dried meniran leaves with dry black tea leaves with formulations 25%, 50%, and 75%. Organoleptic test results (hedonic and hedonic quality) were analyzed by statistical tests using the Kruskal-Wallis test, while antioxidant capacity data would be analyzed by ANOVA statistical tests. Analysis of antioxidant capacity was carried out using the Spectrophotometry method. Organoleptic test results showed that the hedonic quality parameters typical aroma tea is in the range (2,45 – 2,93), the typical aroma of meniran (2,86 – 3,10), bitter taste (3,76 – 4,45), taste foreign (2,83 – 3,38), and steeping color (1,52 – 3,21). The hedonic organoleptic test showed that the beverage aroma parameters were in the range (3,31 – 3,34), taste (1,96 – 2,55) and steeping color (3,07 – 3,65). Antioxidant capacity test shows that F3 functional drinks have the highest antioxidant content of 87,3%. Overall F1 meniran tea (25% meniran leaves, 75% black tea leaves) is the best formula based on organoleptic test results and antioxidant capacity.Teh meniran merupakan minuman fungsional yang memiliki kandungan berbagai komponen aktif. Teh Meniran mengandung berbagai komponen aktif diantaranya golongan flavonoid berperan sebagai antioksidan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mempelajari formulasi teh daun Meniran (Phyllanthus niruri) sebagai minumal fungsional. Desain penelitian ini yaitu eksperimental melalui Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL). Formulasi teh daun meniran dilakukan dengan mencampurkan daun meniran kering dengan daun teh hitam kering dengan formulasi 25%, 50%, dan 75%. Data hasil uji organoleptik (hedonik dan mutu hedonik) dianalisis dengan uji statistik menggunakan uji Kruskal-Wallis, sedangkan data kapasitas antioksidan akan dianalisis dengan uji statistik ANOVA. Analisis kapasitas antioksidan dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Spektrofotometri. Hasil uji organoleptik mutu hedonik menunjukkan bahwa parameter aroma khas teh berada pada kisaran (2,45 – 2,93),  aroma khas meniran (2,86 – 3,10), rasa pahit (3,76 – 4,45), rasa asing ( 2,83 – 3,38), dan warna seduhan (1,52 – 3,21). Uji organoleptik hedonik menunjukkan bahwa parameter aroma minuman berada pada kisaran (3,31 – 3,34), rasa (1,96 – 2,55) dan warna seduhan (3,07 – 3,65). Uji kapasitas antioksidan menunjukkan bahwa minuman fungsional F3 memiliki kandungan antioksidan paling tinggi sebesar 87,3%. Secara keseluruhan teh meniran F1(25% daun meniran, 75% daun teh hitam) merupakan formula yang terbaik berdasarkan hasil uji organoleptik dan uji kapasitas antioksidan.

Local food can be used as an alternative to additional food for toddlers, namely food bars. The study was conducted in June-November 2017. The design of this research was experimental using a completely randomized design (CRD). The food bar formulation was mixed with 20g and 25g tuna, while 20g and 25g mackerel fish. Organoleptic test data were analyzed using ANOVA. Proximate analysis of food bars using the AOAC method. Food bars' essential amino acid content was carried out using LCMS and total microbial analysis using the ALT method. Food bar analysis selected from the test results by semi-trained panelists and consumer panelists is f4 with 25g tuna mixing with indicators of color (p= 0,000), aroma (p= 0,003), taste (p= 0,040), and texture (p= 0,167). Food bar in 100 grams contains: energy 470,77 kcal, 15,65% protein, 24,13% fat, 47,74% carbohydrates, 2.14% ash, and 10.33% water. The results of the total microbial test on the food bar showed a value of 4,5 x 102 cfu/g and an Aw value of 0,86. Food bar formula F4 is a formula selected by panellists that contain ten high essential amino acids

AIM: This study aimed to analyze the description of Indonesian undergraduate students’ food consumption patterns during the COVID-19 period. METHODS: The design used was cross-sectional with random sampling technique. The correlation test was Chi-Square and analyzed using univariate. The respondents involved were 17–24 years old with 5924 persons; active undergraduate students. Questionnaires were distributed using Google form. RESULTS: The results indicated a relationship between gender and major, education level, social status, and funds source (p = 0.000). However, sex and residence did not correlate (p = 0.16). The same was revealed between gender with consumption patterns, carbohydrates, animal protein, vegetable protein, vegetables, fruit, snacks, water, and supplements. CONCLUSION: Overall, during the new normal period of pandemic COVID-19 era, student food consumption patterns could be categorized as healthier lifestyle changes.

High blood glucose status is a public health problem not only in urban areas but also in rural areas.The prevalence of diabetes in rural areas is increasing.Dietary shift, such as sweet food consumption, is associated with blood glucose status. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the association between sweet foodand blood glucose status of men and women in rural areas. Method: The design of this study was cross-sectional, and this study was conducted on 112 people aged 45-59 years from 56 households in Cisalak Village, Cibeber Subdistrict, Cianjur Regency. Chi-square test was used to analyze the association between sweet food and blood glucose status. Results: The results showed that sweet food consumption in women wasmore often than men. Sweet foods (OR = 8.438; 95% CI: 1.377 -51.706) were significantly related to blood glucose status among men than women (OR = 0.837; 95% CI: 0.089 -7.886). Conclusion: There is an association between sweet food consumption and blood glucose status in men. This study suggeststhe importance of limiting sweet food consumption so that the blood glucose status can be controlled.
