Jihan Talitha Huwaida

Abstract
Hypertension represents a non-communicable disease with a continuously increasing prevalence and has become a significant health issue globally and nationally. Lack of patient knowledge in managing their disease, particularly regarding the utilization of herbal based complementary therapies, is assessed to hinder the success of comprehensive hypertension management. Therefore, this study was conducted with the objective of analyzing the effect of education on cinnamon and lemongrass powder infusion consumption toward knowledge levels among hypertension patients in the working area of Putri Ayu Public Health Center Jambi City in 2026. This study utilized a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one group pretest posttest design. A total of 20 respondents were established as the sample from a total of 246 hypertension patients through a purposive sampling technique. Data collection instruments comprised a 17-item multiple choice questionnaire declared valid and highly reliable with a Cronbach Alpha of 0.961. Data analysis was conducted using the Paired Sample T Test after the Shapiro Wilk normality test demonstrated normally distributed data. The research results revealed an increase in the average knowledge score of respondents from 7.65 at the pretest stage to 13.65 at the posttest stage, with an average score increase of 6.00 points. Statistical test results demonstrated a t value of negative 33.764 and a p value of 0.000, where p is less than 0.05, thereby accepting the alternative hypothesis and rejecting the null hypothesis. This proves that education on cinnamon and lemongrass powder infusion consumption has a significant effect on increasing the knowledge of hypertension patients, recommending its application as an integrated promotive intervention within primary healthcare hypertension management programs.
