Hasil ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman yang signifikan setelah penyuluhan. Penyuluhan berbasis media edukatif terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran siswa mengenai pencegahan penyakit degeneratif. Edukasi kesehatan sejak dini memiliki peran penting dalam membentuk pola hidup sehat di kalangan remaja, sehingga perlu terus dikembangkan di lingkungan sekolah guna menciptakan generasi yang lebih sehat dan produktif di masa depan.

ABSTRACT

 

Degenerative diseases have become an increasing health challenge in Indonesia due to unhealthy lifestyle changes. Prevention during adolescence is a strategic step in reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. This community service activity aimed to increase students' awareness and understanding of degenerative disease prevention through health education in the school environment. A total of 77 twelfth-grade students from SMA Negeri 1 Jatiwaras, Kabupaten Tasikmalaya, participated in this program. The interactive counseling was conducted using leaflets and educational videos designed to be easily understood and engaging for teenagers. Evaluation was carried out using pre-test and post-test assessments to measure students' knowledge improvement. The evaluation showed an increase in the average score from 3.89 to 5.04, with the Wilcoxon test yielding a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant improvement in students' understanding after the intervention. Conclusion: Educational media-based counseling proved to be effective in enhancing students' awareness of degenerative disease prevention. Early health education plays a crucial role in shaping a healthy lifestyle among adolescents. Therefore, continuous development of health education programs in schools is essential to create a healthier and more productive generation in the future.
