High prevalence of childhood obesity increases risk of insulin resistance in pre-pubertal children. The purpose of this study is to identify the presence of insulin resistance in pre-pubertal obese children and compare with children who had normal nutritional status. Observational analytic study with a cross sectional design is used for this research. There are 60 elementary school students aged 6-9 years involved in this study, 30 obese students and 30 students with normal nutritional status based on BMI for Age. Fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose and HOMA IR index were carried out in Parahita Laboratory at Sidoarjo. Statistical analysis using independent t-test was used to determine differences in fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin and HOMA IR between two groups and linear regression to analyze the effect of obesity on insulin resistance with a significance value < 0.05.The results showed mean scores of BMI obese and non-obese group were 25.6 and 15.96 respectively, the mean value of BMI z score among obese group and non-obese was 3.7 and-0.6 respectively; the abdominal circumference value of obese and non obese group consist of 84.95 and 59.48 cm. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in fasting blood glucose levels, but fasting insulin levels and HOMA IR between 2 groups differed significantly. Obesity (BMI and abdominal circumference) influenced incidence of insulin resistance. Furthermore, obese and non-obese groups have different sensitivity of insulin response but had the same blood glucose level; obese group had higher HOMAIR than non-obese group. So, there needs an intervention to reduce obesity at an early age to reduce the risk of insulin resistance in pre-pubertal age.Keywords

Background: Moringa oleifera is one of the vegetable food sources which has many nutritional content (minerals, vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin B, sources of calcium, protein, potassium, and iron, amino acids such as methionine and cystine) which are very important to prevent disease.
Aims: To assess the large difference in infant morbidity from groups of mothers who received Moringa oleifera flour and groups who received iron tablets.
Method: Experimental with Randomized Double Blind design, Controlled design. The population in this study were community groups of pregnant and lactating women, a large sample of 20 pregnant women each group (Moringa Oleifera flour (GTK, n = 20) and received iron folate capsules (GBF, n = 20). Bivariate analysis uses chi-square and multivariate logistic regression to see the value of OR.
Results: There is a significant effect of moringa flour intervention on Morbidity of Infants aged 3 months (ρ = 0.018) and 6 months (ρ = 0.006). Based on the Odds Ratio test, the use of Moringa flour 5,500 times better for infant morbidity compared to the use of iron (Fe) tablets at 3 months of age and the use of Moringa flour 7.857 times better for infant morbidity than the use of iron (Fe) tablets at the age of infants 6 months are measured based on the morbidity of children in the last 3 months.
Conclusion: There is an effect of the intervention of Moringa flour on infant morbidity, the use of Moringa flour is better than the use of iron tablets (Fe). Moringa flour provides the same benefits as Fe and can be an alternative fulfillment of nutrition to maintain the health of children in order to avoid disease.
