Objective Nutrition plays an important role in the human life cycle, more specifically for children aged 2 years because this is a period of golden children that determines the health status of their future children. The aim of this study was to analyze the nutritional status of children aged 0-23 months toward breastfeeding and complementary food status. Methods This study was an observational analytic study with a cross sectional study design carried out in Malili sub-district, East Luwu district, Indonesia. This research was conducted from April to June 2019, involving 4 Villages. The number of samples is 181 infants aged 0-23 months. Results This study obtained the status of thin children 13.3%, stunting 22.1%, and waste 16.6%. The frequency of non-breastfeeding mothers was 38.1% and those who received complementary food earlier were 43.5%. This study also showed an association between the stunting category with breastfeeding (p less then 0.05) and there was a relationship between underweight categories with breastfeeding at the boundary value (p value=0.08). Conclusion The nutritional status of stunting and underweight related to breastfeeding and the provision of Complementary food.Objective This study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between DHA and development of motoric, cognitive, and socioemotional (DMCS) at infant 18-23 months of age. Methods This was a cohort study following a supplementation to pregnant and lactating mothers with Moringa oleifera leaf (MOL) or iron folic acid (IFA). DHA in breastmilk was measured at 6 months of age (n=64). DMCS was measured at their age 18-23 months using CREDI (Caregiver Reported Early Childhood Development Index). All measurements were assessed by trained field workers using a standard questionnaire and data was analyzed using Spearman Correlation. Results Majority of mothers were between 20 and 35yr old (71.9%), less than 12yr of education (71.9%), household wife (84.4%), and from farmers family (40.6%). There were borderline significant relationships between DHA levels and cognitive and motoric score (p=0.096, r=0.210 and p=0.064, r=0.233 respectively for cognitive and motoric). However, there was a significant relationship between DHA and socioemotional score (p=0.049, r=0.247). Conclusion We conclude that DHA in breastmilk 6 months would predict the development of motoric, cognitive, and socioemotional of infant at the period of 18-23 months of age.Objective Mastication is conductor for children to get the nutrition. Poor dietary habits will impact to be caries and premature loss as beginning of disfunction mastication as a point for the nutrition.

Deft-t was correlated with caries risk factor consumption of sweet food, sour food and candies/chocolate. Conclusion This present study showed and clarifies the significant risk factor consumption statistically significant to caries at coastal children in Ujung Tanah subdistrict, Makassar.Objective The aim of this study is to investigated the effect of MO leaves extract as an antioxidant in inhibiting methemoglobin (MetHb) formation compared with Vitamin C as positive control.
