EDUCATIONAL TOPICS:

  1. Nutrisi Penyakit Jantung: Nutrisi memainkan peran krusial dalam manajemen penyakit jantung. Penting untuk memahami dan menerapkan pola makan yang mendukung kesehatan jantung, termasuk aspek-aspek seperti mengurangi konsumsi lemak jenuh dan natrium, serta meningkatkan asupan serat dan antioksidan.
  2. Nutrisi pada Stroke: Pasca stroke, perhatian khusus terhadap nutrisi sangat penting. Diet rendah garam, tinggi serat, dan berfokus pada asupan nutrisi yang mendukung fungsi otak dapat membantu dalam pemulihan dan mengurangi risiko kejadian berulang.
  3. Nutrisi Gangguan Saluran Cerna: Gangguan pada saluran cerna memerlukan pendekatan nutrisi yang disesuaikan. Diet khusus, seperti diet rendah serat atau diet yang mudah dicerna, mungkin diperlukan untuk mengelola gejala dan mendukung fungsi saluran cerna.

RESEARCH ACTIVITY:

In 2019 and 2020, I conducted research on the potential antioxidant activities of passion fruit seed extract (Passiflora Edulis Sims) in squamous cell carcinoma. This research, conducted as part of the DRPM program, specifically focused on analyzing the apoptotic effects and cell cycle changes induced by the extract. In the first year of the study (2019), I initiated investigations into the antioxidant properties of passion fruit seed extract on squamous cell carcinoma. The following year (2020), the research continued with a focus on understanding the extract’s impact on apoptosis and cell cycle regulation within the same cancer cells. These findings contribute to the broader understanding of the potential therapeutic applications of passion fruit seed extract, particularly in the context of its antioxidant properties and its effects on squamous cell carcinoma.
