Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) was medical complication that occurs during pregnancy and caused preterm labor.  Efforts reduce blood glucose levels and improve pancreatic performance must be safe both for mother and fetus. The research aimed to prove VCO can reduce blood glucose levels in GDM. The research design was quasi-experimental with one group pre-test and post-test. The research started on March to September 2020. The population was pregnant mother with GDM from two hospitals in Mojokerto East Java. The sample was 46 respondents with purposive sampling. The treatment given was VCO at a dose of 5 ml, 6 times a day and lowcarb diet. The instrument used to measure the fasting blood glucose was glucose stick.  The data was analyzed with paired t-test. The result showed blood glucose levels before intervention average of 155.19 mg/dL and after 153.50 mg/dL. The t-test value 14.442 and p value 0.000 which meant that VCO and low carb diet was more effective in reducing blood glucose levels on GDM. The administration of VCO with a low carb diet is an effort to restrict glucose intake in the body without hypoglycemia. It is safe to use for both mother and fetus as an alternative non-pharmacological therapy on GDM and prevent preterm labor

AbstractGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common pregnancy disorder and the incidence is increasing worldwide. GDM is associated with adverse maternal outcomes which may be reduced with proper management. Lifestyle modification in the form of medical nutrition therapy and physical activity, as well as self-monitoring of blood glucose levels, is the cornerstone of GDM management. Inevitably, the search for the “ultimate” diet prescription has been ongoing. Identifying the amount and type of carbohydrate to maintain blood glucose levels below targets while balancing the nutritional requirements of pregnancy and achieving gestational weight gain within recommendations is challenging. Recent developments in the area of the gut microbiota and its impact on glycemic response add another layer of complexity to the success of medical nutrition therapy. This review critically explores the challenges to dietary prescription for GDM and why utopia may never be found.

Blood glucose levels  uncontrolled is a problem that is often found in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. This has an impact on the health of the patient as it would appear some macrovascular and microvascular complications. Number of patients with DM in Indonesia has increased every year and only 50% of patients suffering from diabetes who are aware of, and around 30% of them take medication regularly. The purpose of this study to determine the effect of Self Instructional Training method on blood glucose levels of patients. The method used is pre experiment with purposive sampling technique and the sample size of 16 respondents. Measuring instrument used glucometers to measure blood glucose levels and analyzed with Paired T Test. Based on the results, the entire blood glucose levels before the intervention above 200 mg /dl. After Self Instructional Training Intervention average blood glucose level was 35.75 mg /dl. Blood glucose levels are highest when the post test was 253 mg /dl and the lowest is 197 mg /dl. Based on Paired T Test  analysis obtained Self Instructional Training interventions can reduce blood glucose levels of patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type II (p value = 0.000). Diabetes Mellitus patients expected to be able to apply the  SIT method to perform self-care so that the patient's blood glucose levels can be controlled. Patient can do this methods  at home and needed support from their  family and health professionals to treat the diseases.Keywords : Self, Instructional, Training, level, glucose, blood, DM

 Administration of oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin is one of the most common pharmacological treatments given to people with diabetes mellitus. This treatment is carried out in the long term so that it causes side effects and is carried out continuously so that it will affect the financial condition of the diabetes mellitus patient. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of black garlic extract on decreasing blood glucose levels in mice (mus musculus). This study uses the design of True Experimental design (pretest-posttest with control group design). The population is mice in Pusvetma Surabaya. Sampling method uses Non Probability Sampling Purposive Sampling type. Samples taken were 30 mice consisting of 15 intervention groups and 15 control groups. Data was collected using observation sheets, then analyzed using Independent sample t test and Dependent sample t test with a significance level of 5 0.05. The results showed: Using the test Independent sample T test obtained a significance value ρ = 0,000  It can be concluded that there is an effect of black onion extract to reduce blood glucose levels in mice. In the paired t-test test in the treatment group showed ρ = 0,000  that there were differences in blood glucose levels before being given extracts of garlic and after being given intervention. It is expected that black garlic can be used as an alternative medicine to reduce blood glucose levels.Keyword : Ekstrak of black garlic, Blood sugar levels, mus musculus

Abstract: Uncontrolled blood glucose levels is a problem that is often found in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. This condition has an impact on the health of the patient as it would appear some macrovascular and microvascular complications. The number of patients with DM in Indonesia has increased by years and only 50% of patients suffering from diabetes who are aware of, and around 30% of them take medication regularly. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Self Instructional Training method on blood glucose levels of the patients. The method used pre-experimental design with purposive sampling technique and 16 respondents as the sample. The measuring instrument used glucometers to measure blood glucose levels and analyzed with Paired T Test. Based on the results, the entire blood glucose levels before the intervention above 200 mg /dl. After having Self Instructional Training Intervention, the average blood glucose level was 35.75 mg /dl. The highest blood glucose levels was in the post test as 253 mg /dl and the lowest was 197 mg /dl. Based on Paired T Test  analysis obtained Self Instructional Training interventions could reduce blood glucose levels of patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type II (p value = 0.000). Diabetes Mellitus patients were expected to be able to apply the  SIT method to perform self-care so that the patient's blood glucose levels can be controlled. Patient could do this methods  at home and should be supported by their  family and health professionals to treat the diseases.
