Background: Both young individuals and the elderly areaffected by the increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome.The main component of this illness, insulin resistance, can bemade worse by Indonesian diets heavy in fat. On the other hand, virgin coconut oil, an essential component of the tradi-tional Nusantara diet, may help control metabolic syndrome and increase insulin sensitivity.
Objective: Assess the effect of the Archipelago Diet on in-sulin resistance in individuals at risk of metabolic syndrome asmeasured by the TyG Index assessment.
Methods: The study used a parallel clinical trial with a pre-posttest randomized design to compare insulin resistance be-tween groups using HOMA-IR values. Fifty subjects were di-vided into intervention and control groups. Conducted at theDepartment of Nutritional Sciences, Faculty of Medicine,Hasanuddin University, Makassar, data collection took placefrom September to December 2022, followed by data pro-cessing and analysis in January 2023.
Results: The results showed that after 2 months of theNusantara diet, there was a decrease in body weight, bodymass index (BMI), and abdominal circumference in the inter-vention group compared to the control group. Specifically, theintervention group experienced a 3.2% decrease in bodyweight (p = 0.587), a 3.1% decrease in BMI (p = 0.603), anda 4.2% decrease in abdominal circumference (p = 0.100).The control group experienced a 1.1% decrease in bodyweight (p = 0.587), a 0.7% decrease in BMI (p = 0.603), anda 1.1% decrease in abdominal circumference (p = 0.100).
Conclusion: The Nusantara diet for 2 months showed nosignificant effect on the TyG Index of individuals at risk ofmetabolic syndrome.
