Abstract

Anemia is a medical condition where hemoglobin levels are less than normal. Normal levels of hemoglobin differ in men and women. For men, anemia is usually defined as a hemoglobin level of less than 13.5 grams / 100 ml and in women a hemoglobin of less than 12.0 grams / 100ml. From the results of a preliminary study conducted at SMAN 5 Kediri in 2019, the results of 10 students interviewed and examination of Hb levels found that 6 (60%) students were anemic. The contributing factor is the lack of iron intake that is absorbed by the body. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of consumption of dragon fruit (Hylocereus) on hemoglobin levels in class X students with anemia at SMAN 5 Kediri in 2019.
