Abstract

Nutritional status is a state of health due to interactions between food, the human body and the human environment. If lack of nutrients, the body will be more easily infected. Nevertheless, more nutrition can also be detrimental because it can lead to degenerative diseases. Therefore, it is crucial to maintain a balanced intake of nutrients following the body's needs. This study discusses the description of the nutritional status of schizophrenic patients at the Mental Hospital Dr. Soeharto Heerdjan Grogol in 2019. This study used a descriptive observational research method to see the nutritional status and food intake of inpatient schizophrenia patients. One hundred fifty-five schizophrenia patients were hospitalized. The results showed more male patients than female patients. Changes in weight in schizophrenia patients increase more than is reduced. The most nutritional status of schizophrenia patients is good. Patients with malnutrition are 12.9%. Many patients leave <25% food. Patients with good nutrition are primarily found in the Peacock Room, which is an independent patient room. Keywords: Schizophrenia, Nutritional Status, Malnutrition, Food Intak
