## Abstract
Abstract Most women feel pain or discomfort when menstruation approaches. They usually feel a symptom called Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) before menstruation. The leaves of Coleus amboinicus Lour can reduce complaints of premenstrual syndrome since these leaves are rich in fiber and minerals. This study aimed to develop a healthy food product for women with premenstrual syndrome. This study was an experiment with four fresh noodle formulations, F0 (400 g flour: 0 g C. amboinicus ), F1 (340 g flour: 60 g C. amboinicus ), F2 (320 g flour: 80 g C. amboinicus ), and F3 (300 g flour: 100 g C. amboinicus ). Organoleptic test results using the Visual Analog Scale method on 25 semi-trained panelists showed that the addition of C amboinicus leaves, in general, did not affect the hedonic value and hedonic quality (α = 0.05), except for the hedonic quality of color parameter (p <0.005). The leaves of C amboinicus to fresh noodles also significantly decreased the value of fat content (p = 0.001) and tended to increase the carbohydrate content, although it was not statistically significant at α = 5%. Then, the mineral content of fresh noodles, particularly Fe, Ca, and Mg, can also be increased by adding C amboinicus leaves. In premenstrual syndrome, fat, carbohydrates, and minerals (Fe, Ca, and Mg) reduce premenstrual syndrome symptoms. Thus, the fresh noodles with C amboinicus leaves are suitable as a food alternative for women with premenstrual syndrome.
