“…As outlined in our findings, poor NL among adolescents and inadequate FL among their parents could lead adolescents to have an additional burden of malnutrition prevalence. Stunting, wasting, overweight, obesity, and anemia were all considerably prevalent among our adolescent sample and comparable to other studies (35)(36)(37). This is, of course, a finding to be worried about, since Lebanese adolescents are anticipated to face additional risks of malnutrition, due to the ongoing conflicts they are already dealing with.…”

“…These findings supported research from Australia (10) and Iran (13). Similarly, lower cooking self-efficacy and food preparation skills were observed among food-insecure college students (37)(38)(39). Today, policymakers and nutrition researchers embrace FL programs as a tool to minimize FI because they emphasize the utilization pillar of food security (10).…”

IntroductionFood and nutrition literacy are widely fundamental to improve the food security and reduce the double burden of malnutrition and iron deficiency in low- and middle-income countries.ObjectivesThis study aimed (1) to assess the nutrition literacy (NL) of Lebanese adolescents and their parents’ food literacy (FL), (2) to investigate the impacts of adolescents’ NL and parental FL on (a) the household food security, (b) the adolescents’ self-reported food security, and (c) the adolescents’ nutrition status with a focus on malnutrition and anemia.MethodsA national representative sample of 450 parent–adolescent dyads [parents: mean age ± standard deviation (SD) = 46.0 ± 7.0, mothers: 59.0%; adolescents: mean age ± SD = 15.0 ± 3.0, girls: 54.6%] were interviewed. Anthropometric and blood hemoglobin measurements were performed for adolescents. The Arab Family Food Security Scale and the Adolescent-Level Food Security Scale were used.ResultsAround 45.0% of the adolescents were nutritionally illiterate, and nearly half (47.8%) of parents had poor FL. Around 68.2 and 54.0% of the households and adolescents were food insecure, respectively. Moreover, 6.7, 4.7, 32.2, and 16.7% of the adolescents were stunted, thin, overweight/obese, and anemic, respectively. Poor parental FL increased the risk of household food insecurity (FI) by 2.7 times, p < 0.001. Adolescents’ nutrition illiteracy increased their FI risk by 60.0% (p = 0.02). The number of offspring, household income, crowding status, and participants’ residence also influenced the percentage of FI and malnutrition prevalence among households and adolescents.ConclusionImprovements in FL and NL are promising to mitigate FI malnutrition in Lebanon.

“…Menstruation is also one of the causes of anemia, every month adolescent girls will experience menstruation that will cause adolescent girls to lose blood, while the need for iron as a micronutrient in adolescent girls is 3 times greater than in young men, therefore it takes iron for the recovery of the condition of adolescent girls who are not experienced by men (Tarini et al, 2020). The achievement and spirit of learning in adolescent girls is the impact of anemia.…”

Anemia is a state of hemoglobin levels in the bloodless than normal numbers according to the sex and age group. The impact of anemia in adolescents is a decrease in achievement and learning spirit and can cause symptoms such as paleness, lethargy, decreased appetite, and growth disorders. Anemia has an impact not only on the health of adolescent girls but can have a long impact on the health of the mother and fetus. You can see the influence of anemia education on knowledge, attitudes, and practice. Uses the Pre-experimental method with the design of one group pretest and posttest. Sampling technique using purposive sampling with the number of 47 adolescent girls. The research was conducted at Senior High School 12 Makassar in September-October 2021. Data analysis using the McNemar test. From the results of statistical tests showed that there was an influence on the use of web-based she smart education model on the use of adolescent girls about anemia with p-value = 0.000 (p<0.05), attitude p-value = 0.016 (p<0.05) and action p-value = 0.001 (p<0.05). Anemia education using web-based she smart can improve knowledge, attitudes, and practice before and after an intervention.

“…Menstruation with bleeding of 50-80 cc every month and iron loss of 30-40 mg so that young women need three times more iron than men. Anemia in teenage girls causes a decrease in work productivity or academic abilities at school and reduces the body's resistance so that they are susceptible to disease (Tarini et al, 2020). For a variety of reasons, adolescence (10-18 years old) is a critical time for nutrition (Mitkari et al, 2020).…”

MTs Darul Hidayah is one of 7 schools whose teenage girls experience anemia at the highest rate of 70% in the Labuhan Maringgai Community Health Center Nutrition Program. The condition of iron nutritional anemia is caused by several interrelated factors, including the insufficient amount of iron in food due to low consumption of animal protein sources. Therefore, research was conducted which aimed to analyze the relationship between animal protein consumption patterns and the incidence of anemia in young women at MTs Darul Hidayah. The type of research is quantitative with an analytical survey method using a cross sectional design approach. The research was carried out in December 2022 at MTs Darul Hidayah. Sampling was carried out by purposive sampling. The population in this study were all 101 young women at MTs Darul Hidayah classes VII, VIII and IX. The total sample after screening was 69 young women who had anemia, where each class had a sample to represent and meet the inclusion criteria. Data on animal consumption patterns was obtained using the FFQ (Food Frequency Questionnaire) Form. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a Family Dr. The statistical test used for analysis is the Fisher Exact Test. The research results show that 69.6% of young women never consume animal protein, 53.6% have chronic energy deficiency and 55.1% have moderate anemia. The results of the statistical test analysis show that there is a relationship between animal protein consumption patterns and the incidence of anemia in young women at MTs Darul Hidayah Sriminosari East Lampung with a p-value = 0.007 (p-value <0.05). So, it is concluded that there is a relationship between animal protein consumption patterns and the incidence of anemia in young women at MTs Darul Hidayah.
