The prevalence of stunting in Central Java in 2022 will reach 20.8%, as well as in Sukoharjo Regency. Stunting cases in Bulakrejo Village in 2022 will reach 60 cases. One of the causes of stunting is anemia. Anemia is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies in developing countries. Based on data from the Ministry of Health's Basic Health Research (Riskesdas), from 2013 to 2018 there was an increase in the prevalence of anemia in the 15-24 year age group, namely 18.4% to 32% or 14.7 million people. Anemia often occurs in all groups, especially in teenagers and pregnant women. Prevention of anemia in teenagers is by regularly consuming pretty pills. The aim of this community service is to increase the knowledge of teenagers from Karang Taruna Bina Pemuda Bulakrejo Village regarding the importance of consuming beauty pills as an effort to prevent stunting. The method for this community service activity is carried out through counseling. The target of the activity is members of the youth organization consisting of 45 teenagers. The material presented is about anemia, its causes, and prevention by consuming blood enhancing pills or beauty pills. Based on the results of the Pretest and Posttest, there was an increase in the knowledge of teenagers at Bina Pemuda Youth Organization regarding the consumption of beauty pills and efforts to prevent stunting by 57%. The percentage of attendance of Karang Taruna members is also very large, namely 75%. This activity was very beneficial for youth organizations, especially to reactivate the youth posyandu in Bulakrejo Village.
