Abstract

The nutritional status of adolescents, especially adolescent girls, is one of the indicators of reproductive health status. This status is an important issue because it is closely related to the quality of the next generation. The size of the upper arm circumference and nutritional consumption habits are some of the indicators of nutritional status assessment. The purpose of this study was to assess the nutritional status of adolescent girls based on body mass index in terms of upper arm circumference and 2 x 24-hour recall of nutritional consumption habits based on the contents of my plate. An observational study with a cross-sectional design was applied to this study involving 380 randomly selected Metro City adolescent girls. Based on nutritional status, 43.43% of adolescent girls have poor nutritional status, underweight nutritional status is more dominant in adolescent girls (31.86%) compared to overweight and obese nutritional status, 30.26% of adolescents have MUAC less than 23.5 cm. As many as 55.79% of adolescent girls have poor nutritional habits. Efforts are needed to assist and increase awareness of adolescent girls in implementing balanced nutritional consumption.
