KONSUMSI MINUMAN NUTRAFOSIN BERISI INULIN DAN FRUKTOOLIGOSAKARIDA (FOS) MENURUNKAN KADAR TRIGLISERIDA PENDERITA DISLIPIDEMIA
Abstract: Food contains
nutrients, including carbohydrate which has major role in energy production
needed for internal and external activities. Several kinds of carbohydrate,
such as inulin (fruktan) and fructooligosacharides (FOS) were proven be able to
modify physiologic and biochemical process, specifically fatty acids and
cholesterol metabolism. These fact showed that this both carbohydrate compounds
biologically active in influencing blood lipid profile, including tryasilglycerol
(TAG) or tryglycerides. Both compounds have been claimed as functional food
ingredients. Health effect of inulin and FOS will be emerged if the subject has
enough energy and nutrient intake. In Indonesia, clinical trial of health
effect of functional food ingredient on human is difficult to be done because
of problem in controlling entirely the subject food consumption. This study was
done on dyslipidemic subject that fulfill inclusion requirement and willing
(informed consent) to follow all experiment procedures for 21 days, with their
daily food consumption pattern as usual. Dyslipidemic subjects are out patient
in Subandi Hospital in Jember. Therefore, they have been given nutrition
consultation from specialized medical doctor in cardiovascular diseases and
from nutrition unit as well. This experiment aims to evaluate the effect of
inulin and FOS intake from Nutrafosin beverage consumption on tryglycerides
level of dyslipidemic whom their consumption pattern was as usual. Food
consumption data was gained through 24 hours Recall Method for 3 days. Energy
requirement was determined based on relative body weight (RBW). This
experimental study was a clinical trial as a pararel matched pairs design. The
intended sample were choosen from accesible population thru non-probability and
consecutive sampling. One cup of Nutrafosin beverage contained 2 g inulin
powder and 50 ml FOS that given by single blinding placebo designed to 16
dislipidemic subject for 21 days consumption orally. Tryglycerides level measurement
was done at 0 days and 22th days. The tryglycerides level difference between
before and after treatment from placebo and treatment groups was analyzed using
statistical T-test pair at 95 % confidence interval. The result showed that
Nutrafosin beverage consumption by dyslipidemic for 21 days decreased
trygycerides by 18.5 percent, significantly (Tc= 1,108 < Ttab = 2,365).
