This study conducted on 33 undeweight adolescent’s girls selected based on inclusion criteria. Data collection was carried out before and after the intervention. Adolescents’ nutritional knowledge was collected by asking questions using Google forms and food consumption data collection was carried out by direct interviews using a 24-hour food recall form. The intervention took the form of education and guidance from peer tutors when the subjects consumed snacks and lunch at school, which was carried out 14 times, 2 times a week during 8 weeks. The effect of providing education on the level of knowledge; Energy, carbohydrate, protein, fat and zinc intake were analyzed using the paired sample t test, while vitamin C and iron intake used the Wilcoxon test (95% CI; α = 0.05).The results showed significant improvements in the level of knowledge intake of Energy, Protein, Fat, Carbohydrates as well as Iron and Zinc (p-value <0.05), while the increase in vitamin C intake was not significantly different (p-value >0.05).
