Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) results from prolonged deprivation of essential amino acids and total nitrogen and/or energy substrates. Growth which is a continuous process re‐ sults from the complex interaction between inheritance and environment. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) also results from food insufficiency as well as from poor social and eco‐ nomic conditions [6, 20]. Malnutritio...

Essential fatty acid deficiency has been widely studied but the extent to which its effects are attributable specifically to deficiency of linoleate as opposed to deficiency of all unsaturated fatty acids is unknown. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of pure linoleate deficiency on growth as well as changes in the metabolism and oxidation of n-6 polyunsaturates. The diets contained 20 en...

We assessed the impact of energy deficiency on menstrual function using controlled feeding and supervised exercise over four menstrual cycles (1 baseline and 3 intervention cycles) in untrained, eumenorrheic women aged 18-30 yr. Subjects were randomized to either an exercising control (EXCON) or one of three exercising energy deficit (ED) groups, i.e., mild (ED1; -8 ± 2%), moderate (ED2; -22 ± ...

In this issue, Pospisilik et al. (2007) demonstrate that a reduction in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation protects mice against obesity and diabetes. This finding suggests that the moderate deficiency in oxidative phosphorylation that is observed in peripheral tissues of insulin-resistant humans is not a causative factor in diabetes but may instead be a compensatory response.

Chronic Energy Deficiency is a malnutrition problem during pregnancy caused by an unbalanced nutritional intake that resulted from long-term energy deficiency. According to the Indonesian Primary Health Research data in 2018, only 25.2% of pregnant women received supplementary feeding program, and remaining 74.8% failed receive program. The also states proportion aged 15-49 years old were 17.3%...

One of the causes maternal and child mortality is poor nutritional status low intake pregnant women during pregnancy so that it can cause health problems for mothers babies. The purpose this community service to increase knowledge about Chronic Energy Deficiency as an effort prevent both short long term. This was carried out in March 2022. Community activities focused on increasing awareness fu...

This study aims determine knowledge, maternal age, gestational age and income with energy pregnant women Muara Enim Public Health Center Work Area, Regency 2021.
