| Abstract | ||||
| The study attributes to confirm the role of talbinah to adjust protein and mineral level as a nutritional problem of adult girls. Chemical composition of barley grains was examined. Nutritional value of talbinah was calculated. Body mass index as weight marker was calculated and nutrient percentages to Dietary Reference intakes (DRIs). Hemoglobin (Hb), serum iron, ferritin, total iron binding capacity (TIBC), serum zinc and albumin were tested as biochemical blood data. The results of barley grains chemical composition recorded mild content of protein, fiber, calories and minerals. Calculated nutritional value of talbinah revealed high content of nutrients. Body mass index percent were high percent of ideal weight followed by overweight and low percent in obesity and underweight girls. On daily intake of talbinah the percent of macronutrients and vitamins were increased compared to DRIs in all groups. But minerals percent recorded high decrease in all groups. All blood results of Hb, serum iron, ferritin, TIBC, zinc and albumin levels were improved by girls taking 2 cups then 1 cup of talbinah. So, this results can confirm that use of the talbinah improved adult girl’s nutritional status. | ||||
