Background: Adolescent is a period of growth and development as well as transition time from childhood into adult, which need an optimal nutrition intake. Malnutrition during adolescents will give a negative impact on nutrition status of their children in the future. Female adolescents had got impacted more severe compared to male adolescents, because it caused an intergeneration effect. Underweight female or short female tended to give birth a low birth weight infant, and this negative cycle will continue occurred for the next generation. Objective of this study was to analyze association of parents’ body weight to their adolescent height
Method: Using data from Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS). Sample inclusion criteria of this study included children aged two to five years old during the IFLS 1, as a biological child, single birth, still alive, living with parents, still alive in IFLS 4, while the exclusion criteria were had incomplete cohort data from 1993 to 2007. This study analyzed 428 individuals out of 847 sample population. Bivariate analysis of Chisquare test had been done followed by multiple logistic regression for independent variables with p value < 0.25.
Result: Multivariate analyses showed that adolescents who had stunted mother had 2.4 times risk of develop stunted.
Conclusions: Adolescent’s height correlate to mother’s heigt.

Introduction: Dyslipidemia is the primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Prevalance of dyslipidemia in Indonesia is still high, which is related to lifestyles such as unhealthy diet. Flovonoids are one type of phytochemical that is abundant in fruits, vegetables, nuts, and flavors that have a preventive effect on degenerative diseases.
Purpose: To determine differences in flavonoid phytochemical consumption of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in dyslipidemia and non-dyslipidemia groups of Minangkabau ethnic women.
Method: The study design was comparative cross-sectional, examination of lipid levels of TC and LDL-C was carried out to determine dyslipidemia status. Subjects consisted of 72 women with dyslipidemia and 74 women with non-dyslipidemia. Interviews on food consumption used a food consumption frequency questionnaire (semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire).
Results: The mean TC and LDL-C were higher in the dyslipidemia group, there was an inverse correlation between flavan 3-ols, flavones, flavonols, antocyanidins and isoflavones with TC and LDL-C. There were significant differences in flavonols and antocyanidin consumptions among the dyslipidemia and nondyslipidemia groups (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The flavonoid consumption can improve dyslipidemia status (TC and LDL-C).
