According to RISKESDAS in 2018, the prevalence of diabetes in Indonesia has increased significantly compared to 2013. ON the other hand, the consumption of Sugar Sweetened Beverages (SSB) and obesity are important risk factors for Diabetes Mellitus. Hence,this study determined to analyze whether nutritional literacy in adolescents has an influence towards SSB intake and Body Mass Index among the adolescents in The City of Bandung. This is a cross-sectional study with 200 respondents with a stratified random sampling technique whereby respondents are taken from eight high schools in Bandung, randomly selected. Standardized questionnaire was used to obtained necessary data and also Kara Scan was utilized to measure BMI. There was a significant relationship between nutritional literacy and SSB consumption (p=<0.05) while there was no relationship between nutritional literacy and BMI (p=>0.05). On the other hand, nutrition literacy was a significant predictor towards SSB consumption (β = 0,085; p = <0,05) but itwas not a significant predictor towards BMI (β = 0,468; p = >0,05). This study emphasized the need of an intervention to improve nutritional literacy among adolescents in Bandung to reduce SSB consumption. Hence, it will reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases as well in the future

Objective. The vaccine rollout in the Asian region was slower than in other countries. Factors such as lack of knowledge and skepticism towards the vaccine were noted. On the other hand, the influence of religious leaders on the congregation was enormous, including their intention to vaccinate. Guided by the Health Belief Model theory, this study aimed to explore the knowledge, belief and perceived susceptibility and severity of COVID, the perceived benefits and barriers of the vaccines, and the intention to vaccinate among the Seventh Day Adventists in Asia. Methods. This was a descriptive study with respondents chosen through a multi-stage sampling method within the Asian region. A validated self-survey questionnaire, piloted among 40 respondents, was used using the Google online form. Data gathering was conducted for one month, from May until June 2021. Results. Out of 400 questionnaires distributed, 396 responded with a return rate of 0.99%. The majority were aged 18–29 years (43.2%), men (61.4%), married (50.2%), completed a bachelors' degree (49.5%), currently working (65.4%), and have been a member of the church for 20 years (30.8%). The majority had excellent knowledge regarding the vaccine (mean 4.72, ± 1.33); despite having low belief in the vaccine (mean 2.18, ± 0.43), low perception of their susceptibility to acquiring COVID (mean 2.43, ± 0.34), low perception on the seriousness of COVID (mean 2.30, ±0.40), low perception on vaccine benefits (mean 2.27, ± 0.45), and perceived low barrier on being vaccinated (mean 2.27, ±.45). Most of them intend to vaccinate (67.3%). Conclusion. The findings of this study suggest that the majority of Adventists intend to vaccinate. However, there is a need for health education to enhance their belief in the vaccine and change their negative perception about their susceptibility and severity of COVID.

Background: Alcohol abuse is one of the growing problems among the youths. This problem shows an increasing trend from year to year and has resulted in delinquency, fights, the emergence of juvenile gangs, immoral acts, and rampant thuggery. The impact of consuming alcohol can lead to poisoning due to the substance in alcohol can damage several systems in the body such as the motoric system (inability to stay still), the motoric reaction will be prolonged, speech disorder (dysarthria), and ataxia. The purpose of this study was to study and explain factors related to students’ habits on alcohol consumption. Factors associated are knowledge, attitudes, age, gender, environment, culture, mass media, emotional status, and availability of drinks. Methods: This study is quantitative research with a cross-sectional approach. The sample of this research was the students who came from NTT and studying in Surakarta and 338 students participated as the sample. Sampling technique utilized in this study was Accidental Sampling. Results: The final result of multivariate test showed that significant variable associated with the alcohol consumption of students are as follows: knowledge p = 0,000 attitude p = 0,000 (p value & it; 0, 05), cultural p = 0,009 (p value & it; 0, 05) and emotional p = 0,013 (p value & it; 0, 05). This research showed that attitude is the most associated with alcohol consumption even after being controlled by another three variables such as knowledge, culture, and emotion, with OR 4.245. It means that people with a negative attitude have a 4.2 times risk of consuming alcohol more often than people with a positive attitude influenced by culture and emotions.
