PENYULUHAN MENGENAI PENYAKIT PADA SISTEM PENCERNAAN (GASTRITIS DAN APENDISITIS)

Abstract

Diseases of the digestive system, such as gastritis and appendicitis, are common health problems in society. This counseling aimed to enhance students' understanding of digestive system diseases, particularly gastritis and appendicitis, and to provide preventive solutions through healthy lifestyle practices. Conducted with 11th-grade students at SMK Farmasi Tangerang 1, the results showed a significant increase in knowledge following the counseling, as evidenced by the comparison of pretest and posttest scores. This program is expected to serve as a preliminary step in fostering a more health-conscious community regarding digestive system health.
