Abstract
Background Increasing hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls can be influenced by a combination of Fe tablets with zinc. Zinc acts as part of the essential carbonic anhydrase enzyme found in red blood cells. It is needed for the activity of the superoxide dismutase enzyme, which functions to protect the surface of red blood cells from damage. This study aimed to determine the increase in hemoglobin levels in female adolescent. Methods:This research design uses the Chi-Square test and Fisher's Exact test. The population in this study was 160 female adolescents. They were divided into two groups, namely 80 control groups and 80 treatment groups. Results and Discussions Respondents' hemoglobin (HB) data before treatment was given to the intervention group. The distribution of hemoglobin data for respondents in the moderate HB category (8-10) was 68 people (85%) in the control group, and in the intervention group, there were 64 people (80%). Data on the distribution of hemoglobin (HB) of respondents after being given treatment in the intervention group. The distribution of hemoglobin data for respondents in the moderate HB category (8-10) was 56 people (70%) in the control group, and in the intervention group there were 34 people (42.5%). Meanwhile, the mild HB hemoglobin category (11-12) was found in 23 people (28.7%) in the control group and 42 people (52.5%) in the intervention group. Conclusions based on the mean ± standard deviation of hemoglobin in the control group (9.86 ± 1.09) and the intervention group (10.80 ± 1.47) also showed a significant difference (p = 0.000 < 0.05). It is recommended that young women better understand the risk of anemia by consuming ZINC tablets.
