- Abstract
One of the nutrient deficiency problems for adolescent girls is anemia. Anemia is a condition occurs when the hemoglobin (Hb) level is below 12 g/dL. Anemia can be caused by blood deficiency, infections, low iron contens in the diet, low consumption of food source of iron and the presence of any substances that might inhibit the absorption of iron intake from foods. Consuming iron source foods and iron enhancers, also reducing iron inhibitor intake can enhance iron absorption in body. The obstruction of iron absorption in body can increase the risk of anemia for adolescent girls. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between consumption patterns of iron sources, iron inhibitor, and iron enhancer, with the occurrence of anemia among adolescent girls. This research was an analytic observational study that performed cross-sectional design on 50 female students from grade X to XI at Islamic Boarding School Al-Mizan Muhammadiyah Lamongan. The participants were selected based on proportional random sampling method. The hemoglobin levels data were collected using digital hemoglobinmeter and the consumption patterns data were collected using food frequency questionnaire. Spearman correlation test was performed to analyze the data. The results showed there was a correlation between consumption patterns of iron source (p=0.036) and iron inhibitor (p=0.012) with the occurrence of anemia. However, there was no correlation between consumption patterns of iron enhancers (p=0.339) with the occurrence of anemia. In conclusion, a habit of consuming iron-rich-foods and iron inhibitor in diets contributes to the occurrence of anemia in female students. Therefore, they are expected to consume more ironrich foods especially heme iron and minimalize consuming iron inhibitor foods to decrease the risk of anemia.
