The excess energy and nutrients intake are related to increasing the metabolic incidence of syndromes and the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease.Objectives: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of giving nutritional interventions to eating habits and anthropometric status of college students in Malang.Methods: The quasi-experimental design with 31 participants from college students in Malang. Nutrition interventions provided in the form of education related to healthy snacks and assistance in making healthy snacks. The instruments used were pretest-posttest, questionnaire, and semi FFQ. Data processing was carried out by descriptive statistical analysis and dependent t-test at a 95% confidence level.Results: There was a significant increase in knowledge related to healthy snacks for subyek penelitiants (p <0.01) indicated by the results of the pre-test and post-test. There was an increase in the influence with nutrition claims by 31% and there was a significant difference between before and after the intervention (p = 0.013). The results of a healthy semi FFQ snack for the fruit category experienced a significant increase after being given an intervention program (p <0.01), while the semi FFQ results for unhealthy snacks for the category of salted crackers, chocolate/candy, pudding, and market snacks tended to decrease in consumption although not significant. The prevalence of overweight and obese in participants before being given intervention was 29% and decreased after being given intervention to 22.6% even though there was no significant difference (p = 0.096).Conclusions: There is an increase in the influence of 'nutrition claims' and fruit consumption significantly. While the prevalence of obese tends to fall even though it is not significant between college students.

[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The present study aims 1) to determine online information acquisition practices in which college students acquire health-related information, health topics they are interested in and online tools they use to acquire health information, 2) to propose a theoretical framework based upon Williamson's ecological model (1998), Longo's health information model (2009; 2010), and previous empirical studies, 3) to examine contextual variables associated with college students' health information acquisition, and 4) to encourage discussion about improvements in communication of health information, health promotion and e-health literacy education of college population. The data collected through an online questionnaire was analyzed using various statistical analyses. The study found that found that students acquire health information in both intentional and opportunistic manner, with intentional being more common. There is a difference in topics they obtain in each of these two information manners. Students use search engines when intentionally searching for health information and opportunistically discover information while using social media. Both intentional and unintentional acquisition of health information was found to be significantly associated with gender, enrollment in healthrelated class, level of physical exercise, and the frequency of overall ODI. Health status was also significant in combination with satisfaction with social life, enrollment in health class and gender for intentional searching for health information. The theoretical framework proposed in the study is the first one so far to take a holistic approach to empirical investigation of undergraduate college students' health information acquisition behavior, by exploring both intentional and opportunistic acquisition practices and well as acquiring information for self and other people.
