Nutrition Counseling with and without Modules towards Nutrition Knowledge, Attitude, and Macronutrient Intake among Prediabetic Women.
Prediabetes is one of risk factors for degenerative diseases. One of the prevention efforts is by improving the knowledge of nutrition and attitude through a counseling program. Modules are used as the media to convey the message of health with the form of words and pictures. The purpose of the study is to analyze the difference between the influence of nutrition counseling with the module and without the module, toward the raise of nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and the adequacy of macronutrients (energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrates) in prediabetic women. This study used a quasi-experimental method with pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 29 women ages between 35-50 with prediabetes who were divided into 2 groups: a treatment group provided with modules (n=15); and a control group with no modules provided (n=14). The counselling was done 4 times in 15-30 min duration each session. Paired t test and wilcoxon were used for within group, while independent t-test and Mann-Whitney were used between two groups. In treatment group, there was a significant increase score of pre-test and post-test of knowledge (p=0.01) by 16.16±21.56 and attitude (p=0.04) by 1.46±2.66. In control group, there was a notable increase score of pre-test and post-test of knowledge (p=0.02) by 10.71 ±15.39. There was no indicative difference in the improvement of knowledge score (p=0.443), score of attitude (p=0.783), energy intake (p=0.693), carbohydrates (p=0.585), protein (p=0.458), and fat (p=0.495) between the control group and the treatment group.
