Abstract
Smoking behavior has become an urgent global health problem, leading to an increased risk of various chronic diseases and posing a significant health burden on society. In the context of efforts to prevent and reduce the negative impact of smoking, the role of prebiotics and antioxidants is increasingly being paid attention to because of their potential to improve gut health and counteract the negative effects of free radicals produced by exposure to cigarette smoke. Based on the description of the impact of smoking and the exploration of the health potential of banana peel and dragon fruit peel, this research will focus on the formulation of herbal candies. This study is experimental research with a post-test and a control group design. Dragon fruit and banana peels are extracted and evaporated until they form a paste, and then antioxidant and prebiotic activity is measured. After that, the basic formulation of herbal candies is determined and tested organoleptic. The test results were obtained. The best formulation based on the highest value was found in the FPKB3 treatment with values of color parameters of 5.76 (active smokers) and 5.86 (passive smokers), aroma 5.6 (active smokers) and 5.56 (passive smokers), taste 5.96 (active smokers) and 5.6 (passive smokers), and texture 5.66 (active smokers) and 5.76 (passive smokers).
