The International Food Information Council Foundation . explains that the factors that cause adolescents not to eat breakfast are the existence of a busy morning schedule so that adolescents feel they do not have enough time to prepare breakfast and lack of funds. In addition, adolescents forget to eat their breakfast due to a busy morning schedule, and because they consider themselves fat, they decide not to eat breakfast in order to lose weight. The results of this study are in line with research conducted (Rahmiwati A, 2. showing that the results of statistical analysis using the chi-square test show that there is no relationship between breakfast and learning achievement with a p- Value = 0. -Value = Ou0. The results of this study are not in line with research (Marvelia R. et al. showing that there is a relationship between breakfast and learning achievement with p-Value = 0. 014 (P-Value O 0. as well as research (Mahbub, et al. which shows p-Value = 0. -Value = Ou0.

Therefore, leaving breakfast in the morning will The 5th International Conference on Public Health 2024 ISSN: 2714-7045 cause the body to lack blood glucose, resulting in all body activities such as the ability to think and concentrate can be disrupted (Al-Faida, 2. According to the researcher's assumption, it shows that many students still do not know the importance of breakfast because the school does not provide understanding / education to students about the importance of breakfast. While learning achievement can be seen from the daily grades of students for approximately 1 week here more dominant students who have an average score Ou80-89 are categorized as Good. The Relationship between Learning Concentration and Learning Achievement The results of the Chi-square Test Analysis show that the p-value is 1. 00, which means that the pvalue Ou 0. 05, meaning that there is no relationship between learning concentration and learning achievement of students of Seumot State Elementary School. Nagan Raya Regency. With a prevalance ratio value obtained of 2 (Ou. , there is a significant risk factor between learning concentration and learning This means that there is no relationship between learning concentration and learning achievement of students of SD Negeri Seumot. Nagan Raya Regency, it is known that 30 respondents who have poor concentration . 7%) while respondents with good achievement . 3%), 9 respondents with good concentration . 9%) than respondents with sufficient learning achievement . 1%). According to Hengkiriawan, . Good learning concentration can affect learning achievement, indicating that learning achievement is an achievement or proficiency that is manifested in expertise or a collection of knowledge. Achievement in the classroom produces changes expressed in the form of symbols to show the ability to achieve work results in a certain time. This can be compared with several opinions including: according to Leidy et al. 2019 emphasizes that breakfast with a high protein menu can reduce appetite so that it can improve the quality of food intake in obese children. This is due to the hormone ghrelin which can stimulate hunger and increase the hormone PYY which is related to satiety (Leidy, et al. Carbohydrate intake in students in this study was in the always category, where carbohydrate intake has the benefit of preventing hypoglycemia, preventing dehydration after fasting, stabilizing blood glucose levels, and can improve the ability to remember. The results of this study are in line with research conducted (Khalida, 2. respondents who have good learning achievement with a percentage . 8%) while respondents who have sufficient learning achievement with a percentage . 8%) and respondents who have poor learning achievement with a percentage . 3%). Likewise, research (Rahmiwati A, 2. shows that more dominant respondents with learning achievement below average with a percentage . %). Research (Adolphus K L. , 2. which explains that there is no relationship between breakfast consumption and students' concentration ability. Based on the research, most students . 5%) are accustomed to doing breakfast and as many as 74. 5% do breakfast by bringing lunch from home. At the time of this study, only 78% of students always had breakfast, and 10% of the students bought food in the canteen if they did not have time to have breakfast. This is because students did not have time to have breakfast because they were The 5th International Conference on Public Health 2024 ISSN: 2714-7045 in a hurry to go to school. Other factors that influence learning concentration are external factors including environment, teachers and society, while internal factors include genetics, aptitude and intelligence. Physical environmental factors such as sound, lighting, temperature and learning design have a big influence on children's learning In addition, teachers who do not motivate children to learn can also affect children's enthusiasm for learning and concentration. Another factor is the community and the environmental conditions where children live will affect children's learning concentration. (Nugroho. , 2. According to the researcher's assumption, it shows that the relationship between learning concentration and learning achievement of elementary school students. This is because students who have achievement are not measured from breakfast. But it is measured by his persistence in learning knowledge at school.
