Abstract

Background: The antioxidant is a nutrient that is needed to encounter free radicals produced by internal metabolism and also from the environment. In artisanal small-scale gold mining areas, environmental pollution, particularly mercury, could be the source of the free radical agents. Besides pollution, they have to combat Sar-cov2 in pandemic conditions. Pregnant women in the ASGM area should have adequate antioxidant levels to avoid mercury intoxication and infection. Objective: The objective of this research was to find out the adequacy of antioxidant intake of pregnant women in the ASGM areas. Method: This research conducted a cross-sectional research design. A nutritional interview using 24-h food recall was performed and followed by a nutrisurvey analysis to reveal the antioxidant intake of pregnant women. 130s subject which has met the criteria were enrolled. The antioxidant adequacy was analyzed by the dietary value compared to recommended dietary allowance. Result: The mean intake for vitamin A was 1023.01 μg, vitamin E was 6.61 mg, and vitamin C was 127.62 mg. While antioxidants from mineral derivate; Iron was 8.00 mg, Zinc was 4.25 mg, Copper was 0.99 mg, and Manganese was 4.70 mg. If the result compared to Indonesian nutritional adequacy, it was found that vitamin A met the nutritional adequacy, while other vitamins did not meet the adequacy. For minerals, Manganese was adequate, but other minerals did not meet the adequacy. Conclusion: Antioxidant dietary intake of pregnant women in the ASGM area did not meet the nutritional adequacy level, except for vitamin A and Manganese. These levels were not sufficient to avoid mercury intoxication and infection.
