Kepatuhan konsumsi suplemen mikronutrien tidak terpengaruh oleh bentuk suplemen

Abstract

Compliance of micronutrients supplement consumption was not affected by supplements form Background: Taburia is micronutrient sprinkle produced by Ministry of Health Indonesia to overcome malnutrition problem in Indonesia. Compliance of Taburia consumption is an important indicator for the success of the supplementation program. Taburia’s compliance in some regions is low (0.05). Several factors affected the compliance level such as mother’s employment status, gender of the children, and age of the children. Conclusions: The compliance level of Taburia sprinkle and fortified gummy candies was similar. Hence fortified gummy candies could be used as an alternative of micronutrient supplement to overcome nutrition problem in Indonesia.
