It was carried out at the “Nuevo Amanecer” Child Development Center located in the San Carlos Neighborhood, Zumbi Parish, in the Canton Centinela del Condor in the Province of Zamora Chinchipe pertaining to Zone 7. The sample consisted of 33 children and their legal representatives, on whom an assessment of nutritional status was administered with respect to anthropometric measures of weight, height and body mass index and a survey was conducted with the parents in order to learn about their eating habits. The result was that 91% of boys and girls were of normal weight, 6% were suffering from malnutrition and 3% were overweight. According to the types of food and the frequency of their consumption, it was found that 45.4% consumed food four to five times a day, 51.5% drank 1 to 2 glasses of water a day, 63.6 % ate fruit, 51.5% consumed meat, fish and shellfish it once a week, 63.6% preferred cereals, milk was consumed by 66.7%, and 69, 7% ingested vegetables.
