Abstract
Anemia is a medical condition characterized by a low number of red blood cells or hemoglobin levels in the body. The purpose of this study was to determine the knowledge of Nutrition study program students at Muhammadiyah Bima University about the importance of iron intake with the incidence of anemia. The type of research used was observational analytic with cross sectional research design to determine the relationship between knowledge and anemia. Of the total 72 female students of the nutrition study program, 33 of them were selected as samples in this study. This study showed a significant relationship (p=0.007) between knowledge and awareness attitude about the importance of iron intake with anemia disease in female students of the Nutrition study program at Muhammadiyah Bima University. It is important to increase the knowledge and awareness of female students about iron intake in preventing anemia. This can be done through education about the impact and how to prevent anemia. In addition, there needs to be a role of the campus such as seminars or public lectures on healthy diets rich in iron for female students, as well as facilitating access to information sources and foods rich in iron such as brochures about anemia. Thus, it is expected to reduce the risk of anemia and improve the health of female students of the Nutrition study program at Muhammadiyah Bima University.
