Resumo:Children have specific nutritional needs and behaviors that shape their diet, where nutritional status reflects the balance between intake and energy needs. Eating behavior shows the behavior of each infant in relation to food, being relevant for the risk of malnutrition due to excess or deficit of nutrients due to erroneous feeding practices. Due to this, we sought to determine the nutritional status and eating behavior in children from 5 to 9 years old of the José Ángel Palacio Educational Unit, having as specific objectives to evaluate the nutritional status, determine the eating behavior and identify the quality of the diet. This work was carried out with a quantitative approach, descriptive design, cross-sectional cohort, in a sample of 152 children, nutritional status was obtained by means of BMI and using questionnaires addressed to parents, dietary behavior and diet quality were determined. This study was carried out with a quantitative approach, descriptive design, cross-sectional cohort, in a sample of 152 children, nutritional status was obtained by means of BMI and using questionnaires addressed to parents, dietary behavior and diet quality were determined. Of the total population, 65.13% (n=99) had a normal nutritional status, with an antieating behavior (decrease in food intake) in the satiety response dimension, 33.55% (n=51) had excess malnutrition with a pro-eating behavior (higher food intake) in the food enjoyment dimension and 1.32% (n=2) had deficit malnutrition where the pro-eating behavior had a greater tendency towards the desire to drink. In diet quality, 53.29% (n=81) presented a poor dietary pattern, and 46.71% (n=71) a very good quality diet. In conclusion, a significant number of students presented excess malnutrition with a pro-eating behavior that reflects a tendency to eat more in children, being important to mention that 4 out of 10 children of the total sample have a diet of very low quality
