    Introduction: Proper nutrition for premature babies is vital for optimal growth. However, a lack of confidence and knowledge among parents causes them to search for online information which may sometimes be misleading or un- reliable. The primary objective of this study is to develop a validated website as an educational tool for parents about nutrition for premature babies. Methods: This study was conducted by referring to the Waterfall Software Develop- ment Life Cycle (SDLC) model, which consists of five main stages. Stages one to three are related to the development of the website, namely, the requirements stage, design stage and implementation stage. This is then followed by a testing stage where 11 expert panels evaluated the content and face validity of the website. The final stage is the main- tenance stage. Results: The website was developed with nine topics. The value of Item Content Validity Index (I-CVI) for every item exceeded the minimum value of I-CVI (0.78), the value of the content validity index by scale, average (S-CVI/Ave) is 0.98, and the content validity index by scale, universal agreement (S-CVI/UA) is 0.83. Both S-CVIs have exceeded the minimum value, which is 0.90 and 0.80 respectively. The value of Krippendorff's Alpha (Kalpha) for the overall section of face validity is 0.53, which does not achieve the minimum acceptable value of Kalpha (0.67). Conclusion: The content validation has high agreement among the expert panels. However, the interphase, layout, and design of the website need to be improvised.

    Sunnah eating practices (SEP) as guided by the Prophet Muhammad contains an element of healthy eating practices. This study assessed the facilitators and barriers towards SEP among overweight middle-aged Muslim women. A total of 22 participants were recruited through purposive sampling technique and were interviewed face-to-face using a semi-structured interview guide. The major facilitators of SEP are health status, awareness, observed Sunnah practice and culture. Meanwhile, the major barriers are time constraints, outside foods, preferences and culture. Overall, the facilitators and barriers to SEP were much influenced by several factors including family, environment and education.

    Introduction: Data on water and sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) intake
    among young adults in Malaysia is sparse. This study aimed at measuring the
    intake of plain water and SSB among undergraduate students in a Malaysian
    university and examine its association with body mass index (BMI). Methods:
    A total of 376 undergraduate students aged 18-30 years were recruited. A selfadministered questionnaire was used to determine the SSB consumption pattern.
    The questionnaire consisted of five sections that included the background of the
    participants, knowledge about SSB, SSB preferences, frequency and portion size.
    Results: 23.9% of subjects in this study were overweight. Almost all of the subjects
    took outside food (93.1%) and drink (74.2%). The highest daily consumption was
    plain water (92.3%), with a majority drinking more than two cups at each intake.
    Caffeinated drinks (coffee or tea) were the most popular SSB among the students
    (18.4%). Most students (79.7%) did not consume SSB on a daily basis. A significant
    association was found between the proportion of plain water consumption and BMI
