The high prevalence of anaemia in pregnant women in West Aceh Regency (40.5%), which is indicated by the haemoglobin (Hb) levels of below 11 g%, should receive special attention because anaemia will have an impact on maternal and infant mortality. Soy milk is one processed beverage that contains iron, high protein, essential fatty acids, fibre, vitamins and minerals. Nutrients contained in soy can produce energy, maintain optimal body functions, and meet the needs of iron in pregnant women. Soybean is a type of food which is ranked third to have the richest iron (8.8 mg%) after meat and cereals. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of homemade soy milk in increasing Hb levels in pregnant women. The study design was an experiment on pregnant women. The object of this study was pregnant women in their first and second trimester of pregnancy. The intervention was giving homemade soy milk by adding 10 ml of honey, as a substitute for sugar, to 1 cup of homemade soy milk (250 ml), from a basic intake of 4 mg of iron per day for pregnant women. This intervention resulted in a significant increase in Hb levels in pregnant women (P < 0.005). The provision of homemade soy milk can significantly increase the mean of Hb levels in pregnant women with an average increase of 2.99 mg% ± 1.422. Furthermore, the p-value obtained was = 0.000, indicating that there was a significant difference in Hb levels between measurement I (before being given homemade soy milk) and after being given homemade soy milk for 3 months. Homemade soy milk is an effective drink in increasing Hb levels in pregnant women.

Low birthweight babies are babies with a birth weight of 1,500 grams to less than 2,500 grams. Low birthweight babies are the cause of increase in babies’ mortality (death) and morbidity (pain). One of the primary risk factors of low birthweight babies is poor pregnant mother’s nutrition. Iron can provide a reserve or storage of nutrition that is very much needed by pregnant mothers to prevent anemia and maintain optimal growth of fetuses. The occurrence of low birthweight babies in Aceh Barat Regency is still very high. The design of this research was observational with an intervention of providing iron for 90 days to pregnant mothers and nutritional guidance for pregnant mothers in the effort of reducing the prevalence of low birthweight babies. The research was done in 10 villages from 3 rural sub-districts that contribute to high rates of low birthweight babies in Aceh Barat Regency, with 146 pregnant mothers. The results of the research showed that the application of the informal guidance strategy in a non-formal setting accompanied with discussions among family members and guidance targets resulted in 69.2% of guidance targets becoming motivated to consume Fe tablets and maintain eating patterns, while guidance targets that have been motivated yet did not consume Fe tablets and maintain eating patterns gave low income of guidance and Fe tablets were observed for 3 months; the result was 13 mothers (86.7%) gave birth to babies of normal weight and 2 mothers (13,3%) gave birth to underweight babies. The application of the guidance strategy in the effort to reduce the occurrence of low birthweight babies, from the results of this research, requires commitment from the Department of Health to provide suitable funds, facilities, and infrastructure to provide services to pregnant mothers, and commitment of all health officials in particular village nurses and health cadres, as well as involving the husband in the role to maintain a healthy pregnancy.

Anaemia is defined as a condition indicated by the deficiency of red blood cells (RBCs) or haemoglobin (Hb), and anaemia is still said to be the most prevalent nutritional deficiency during pregnancy. It is a huge contributor to maternal mortality. During pregnancy anaemia not only affects the mother but also the growing foetus, which makes it more dangerous. It has been estimated that nearly half of pregnant women around the world are estimated to be anaemic. Previous studies done in Malaysia found the overall prevalence of anaemia among pregnant women to be 35%. Knowledge in regard to anaemia and food practice are factors that contribute to anaemia. This study aims to determine the relationship between food practices, knowledge in regard to anaemic conditions among pregnant women in Kuala Terengganu. The study was based on samples gathered from 96 pregnant women from Hiliran Health Clinic in Kuala Terengganu. Data collected was based on self-administered questionnaire and twenty-four-hour diet recall. The data was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.0. The prevalence of anaemia was found to be 40.9% and no association was found between anaemia and sociodemographic factors among pregnant women in Kuala Terengganu. Anaemic pregnant women achieved a higher average score of knowledge regarding anaemia as compared to non-anaemic pregnant women. In conclusion findings of this study suggests that there is average knowledge of anaemia among the given population. Findings also suggest that the overall population had good food practice.
