Relationship between CGOL (Chlorophyll, Ginger, Orange, and Lemongrass) consumption and confirmed COVID-19 cases on pregnant women

Nutritional status and health are crucial factors in maintaining a healthy pregnancy, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between CGOL (Chlorophyll, Ginger, Orange, and Lemongrass) consumption and confirmed COVID-19 cases in pregnant women. The research, conducted in East Java with 250 purposively sampled respondents, employed a correlational cross-sectional design. Data were collected through questionnaires, Likert scales, and documentation. Analysis of research data using descriptive analysis and Spearman-Rho analyses. The study revealed that CGOL consumption in pregnant women was 28% less than optimal, 21.2% moderate and 50.8% optimal. Confirmed COVID-19 cases in pregnant women are 10%, and 90% are not confirmed. There was a significant relationship between CGOL consumption and confirmation of COVID-19 in pregnant women (p-value=0.0001). These findings emphasize the importance of integrating CGOL-based nutritional guidelines into prenatal care programs, particularly during pandemics, to enhance pregnant women's and their babies' health.
