HUBUNGAN TINGKAT ASUPAN SUKROSA DALAM MINUMAN RINGAN BERPEMANIS DENGAN KADAR GULA DARAH PUASA DAN STATUS GIZI PADA MAHASISWA PRODI GIZI UNIVERSITAS NEGERI SURABAYA

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUCROSE INTAKE LEVEL FROM SWEETENED BEVERAGE AND FASTING BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS AND NUTRITIONAL STATUS AMONG NUTRITION STUDENTS AT UNIVERSITAS NEGERI SURABAYA 

Konsumsi minuman ringan berpemanis berlebih berkontribusi terhadap terjadinya kadar gula darah puasa tinggi dan status gizi lebih. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui hubungan tingkat asupan sukrosa dalam minuman ringan berpemanis dengan kadar gula darah puasa dan status gizi  pada mahasiswa Gizi Universitas Negeri Surabaya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantiatif dengan rancangan cross-sectional. Responden berjumlah 95 mahasiswa gizi UNESA dengan teknik stratified proportional purposive sampling. Analisis data menggunakan uji Somers’d. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas responden (88,4%) memiliki tingkat asupan sukrosa cukup. Akan tetapi, mayoritas responden  (71,6%) memiliki tingkat frekuensi konsumsi minuman berpemanis yang sering. Selain itu, mayoritas responden (78,9%) memiliki kadar GDP normal dan (76,85%) memiliki status gizi normal. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat asupan asupan sukrosa dari minuman ringan berpemanis dengan status gizi (p = 0,021; r = 0,407). Namun, tidak terdapat hubungan yang signifikan tingkat asupan sukrosa dari minuman ringan berpemanis dengan kadar gula darah puasa (p = 0,407). Kesimpulan dari penelitian adalah terdapat hubungan yang signifikan tingkat asupan sukrosa dari minman ringan berpemanis dengan status gizi. Namun, tidak terdapat hubungan tingkat asupan sukrosa dari minuman ringan berpemanis dengan kadar GDP.

Kata Kunci : gula darah puasa, minuman ringan berpemanis, status gizi.

Excessive consumption of sweetened beverage significantly contributes to obesity and high fasting blood glucose levels. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sucrose intake level from sweetened beverage with fasting blood glucose levels and nutritional status among Nutrition students at Universitas Negeri Surabaya (UNESA). This study used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional research design. The respondents consisted of 95 UNESA nutrition students, selected using a stratified proportional purposive sampling techniques. Data analysis used the Somers’ d test. The results showed that most of respondents (88.4%) had a moderate level of sucrose intake in sweetened beverage consumption. However, most of respondents (71.6%) had a high frequency of sweetened beverage consumption. 78.9% had normal fasting blood glucose levels. Additionally, the most of respondents (76.85%) had normal fasting blood sugar and (76.85%) respondents had a normal nutritional status. The study also showed that a significant relationship between the sucrose intake level from sweetened beverage with nutritional status (p = 0.021; r = 0.407). However, no significant relationship between sucrose intake level from sweetened beverage  and fasting blood glucose levels (p = 0.407). In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between sucrose intake level from sweetened beverage and nutritional status, but no significant relationship between sucrose intake level from sweetened beverage with fasting blood glucose levels
