"Come on ladies! Do not nap at home. Planting vegetables in the garden. Banana cluster should not be eaten alone, yes," so call Katherine Mera, posyandu cadre of District Lasiola, Belu regency, East Nusa Tenggara, which provoked laughter and applause dozens of people.

A smile was tugging at the lip of the jurors in the presence of Mera, one of the contestants on the show extension "Jamboree PKK cadres and IHC Belu" in Belu District official home page, last December. Got a standing ovation, Katherine Mera relief and smiled broadly.

Obtained according to theme, Mera Khaterine must deliver material on nutrition counseling. Even though haltingly and occasionally paused for forgetting, Mera clear message. Parents, especially mothers, should be concerned and pay attention to her nutritional needs, especially children, by processing the food materials are available with a simple, but creative. No need of food made from expensive, such as meat, poultry or eggs, which are important nutritional content balanced. It could be cooking corn, sweet potatoes, spinach, and soup with tempeh or tofu dishes.

Caring parents are factors a child's nutritional condition. Food that is abundant in the house would not be any good if not treated properly by the mother or other family members. If this happens, do not be surprised if the children are malnourished, and even malnutrition. Moreover, if the children were given only modest meals or even snacks to trick the stomach to be full.

"Malnutrition occurs because children less attention from parents. Children's nutritional needs of abandoned and neglected because their parents more often in the garden. Not because there is no food at home, "said the signs, a midwife at Puskesmas Wedomu, Manleten Village, East Tasifeto District, Belu regency.

Unconscious

Parents often do not realize their children due to malnutrition, said Head of the Family Health Department of Health Belu Theresia MB Saik, children who are malnourished can still move normally and agile so that they then left into the garden and entrusted to a relative, parent, or in-laws.

"Every mother would want their children healthy, but because of difficult family economic conditions have helped him earn a living. Attention to the child to be reduced, including how to cook and feed the right time, "says Teresa.

The pattern of feeding behavior to children, especially post-exclusive breastfeeding 0-6 months, is important because the age of 2-3 years including the critically vulnerable to malnutrition. In general nutritional condition of children ages 6 months to 1 year is still good, but after one year of age are usually a lot of malnutrition. "Above a year usually starts less milk, while additional food is inadequate nutritional intake," says Teresa.

To meet the nutritional needs of children aged 8 months, Meriana (36) to make porridge, spinach, and bananas as a side dish of ASI. Odd jobs that her husband did not allow the family to buy eggs, meat that costs much less than Rp 60,000 per kilogram. To get the nutritional needs of children, Meriana plant vegetables, cassava, and bananas in the garden.

Lack of understanding

Not diolahnya food properly, according to Unicef ​​nutrition expert, Sonia Blaney, due to lack of understanding of the following types of nutritious foods how to process them. Sonia stressed there was no association between child malnutrition and food availability factor for the year 2008 was not reported crop failure, shortage of food, or natural disasters in the province.

UNICEF Health Section Chief Anne Vincent added, the cause of malnutrition are complex, not just a problem of food shortages. Access to food, health care, and behavior patterns of feeding nutritious take effect.

"The absence of mothers who breastfeed and complementary feeding to prepare for busy working in the garden and the lack of awareness of personal hygiene and the environment also has an effect," he said.

Unfortunately, malnutrition has always been associated with lack of food so that when there is malnutrition, local government response is to ask for food aid. "From the field findings, the child died of malnutrition is not simply die of malnutrition, but as it was already ill and are not handled well by the health workers so that was getting worse," said Anne.

To reduce and to anticipate malnutrition, according to nutrition expert at Unicef ​​Indonesia NTT, Helena Ndolu Seran, the method used can no longer just the extension, but also assistance from the pregnancy, early initiation of breastfeeding (IMD), exclusive breastfeeding 0-6 months, and provision of complementary feeding.

"If the extension only, there will be no change in behavior. It takes time. Can not be fast. The important thing is the midwife or health worker can be patient, not ordering, and listen well to dig information from the public, "said Helena.
