Analisis Hubungan Sarapan Dan Kadar Hemoglobin Dengan Prestasi Belajar

“…Eritrosit berperan dalam menyediakan O2 ke jaringan tubuh (Helms et al, 2018) Hemoglobin pada manusia memiliki nilai normal yaitu pada perempuan 12-15 g/dL dan laki -laki 13-17 g/dl (Gunadi, 2016) Kasus anemia terbanyak mayoritas berada di negara berkembang, sebanyak 124 negara berkembang diketahui terdapat kasus anemia. Data Riset Kesehatan Dasar pada tahun 2018, angka kejadian anemia pada remaja sebesar 32% dimana hal tersebut kontras dengan standar nasional kejadian anemia yaitu sebesar 20% (Elisa, 2023) Menurut data hasil Riskesdas tahun 2013 remaja putri mengalami anemia yaitu 37,1%, mengalami peningkatan menjadi 48,9% pada Riskesdas 2018, dengan proporsi anemia ada di kelompok umur 15-24 tahun dan 25-34 tahun (Kartika, 2020) Anemia merupakan permasalahan kesehatan yang sering terjadi pada remaja. Masa remaja adalah periode pertumbuhan paling cepat kedua setelah masa kanakkanak.…”

PROTOCOL: Breakfast consumption, anthropometry, and nutrition‐related outcomes in adolescents from low‐ and middle‐income countries: Protocol for a systematic review and meta‐analysis

“…Regardless of the reason, this behavior has been associated with detrimental effects in adolescents, as breakfast skipping is a known risk factor for anemia (Abalkhail & Shawky, 2002; Ropitasari et al, 2020) and odds of anxiety, depression, and psychological distress (Zahedi et al, 2022). Moreover, breakfast skipping has been found to be associated with unhealthy lifestyles in adolescents, particularly with smoking (Kapantais et al, 2011) and poorer dietary quality (O'Neil et al, 2015).…”

“…A systematic review of 33 countries (of which 23 were high‐income nations) reported that 10–30% of adolescents skip breakfast, and is more common in girls (Keats et al, 2018; Monzani et al, 2019). This high prevalence is concerning as the nutritional consequences of missing breakfast have been described in several observational and some intervention studies and can have significant implications for the health and well‐being of adolescents in LMICs (Onyiriuka et al, 2013; Ropitasari et al, 2020; Zahedi et al, 2022).…”
