Summary
This study aimed to analyze factors affected fish consumption of Indonesian women. This research design was a cross-sectional referred to the Basic Health Research in 2010, conducted by the Health Institute for Research and Development The Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia. Status gizi pada kelompok dewasa di atas 18 tahun didominasi dengan masalah obesitas, walaupun masalah kurus juga masih cukup tinggi. Penilaian pemenuhan gizi seimbang pada wanita dewasa, khususnya untuk protein hewani dari ikan, sangat diperlukan sebagai bagian upaya penanganan masalah gizi ganda. Penyebab rendahnya tingkat konsumsi ikan adalah terkait dengan masalah mitos dan budaya, sehingga sangat penting dilakukan studi mengenai analisis faktorfaktor yang mempengaruhi konsumsi ikan pada wanita dewasa di Indonesia.
