PERBAIKAN LINGKAR PERUT, TEKANAN DARAH, DAN BODY MASS INDEX WANITA SINDROM METABOLIK MENGGUNAKAN YOGURT SUSU KECAMBAH KACANG MERAH

This study aims to determine the effect of red kidney bean sprout milk yogurt (Rides-Yo) on abdominal circumference, blood pressure, and body mass index of metabolic syndrome women. Red kidney bean sprouts milk added with 10% sucrose and 10% skim milk pasteurized at 70 ° C for 10 minutes, then cooled to 45oC. Inoculated with lactic acid bacteria 2% of the total volume of red bean milk, incubated at 27-35oC for 24 hours. As many as 30 women, 40-65 years aged, central obesity, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, live in the Baturraden subdistrict, Banyumas Regency, and are willing to sign informed consent. Subjects were randomly divided into 3 groups; the first group was given Rides-Yo; the second group was given a placebo; and group 3 took medicine from a doctor. A total of 200 mL/day of Rides-Yo or placebo was given to the subjects for 2 months. Before and after the intervention, subjects were measured for abdominal circumference, blood pressure, weight and height. There was a decrease in abdominal circumference (P=0,018), systole and diastolic blood pressure (P <0.038 and P=0,032), and BMI (P=0,039) in the group receiving Rides-Yo, compared to placebo and control groups. Thus, Rides-Yo is able to improve the health status of women with metabolic syndrome.
