Objective. To determine the effect of the healthy lunch box on the eating habits and nutritional status of primary school students at the san Vicente de la Barquera educational institution, Huánuco-2018. Methods. A study with pre-experimental design with application of a stimulus in the school lunch box program was carried out, with test before and after in a single group in 179 students of the primary level; using an interview guide in the collection of the data and a registration form for the nutritional state. The chi-square test of independence was used in the inferential analysis with a statistical significance p < 0.05. Results. In the eating habits variable, after the intervention, the significance value was p < 0.000with changes in 25.1 %, in the nutritional status variable, after the intervention, the significance value was p = 0.026, with changes in 14.5 % in the primary...

Objective: To identify the relationship between nutritional status and academic performance of students from the School of Business Sciences of Universidad de Huanuco, 2017-2018. Methods. It is a cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach. Population comprised of 612 students, sample comprised of 235 students, selected probabilistically and all of them belonging to the first semester. Instruments used were made up of a socio- demographic survey, internal records for the identification of averages for mathematics and language courses, and an anthropometry card was used to measure nutritional status. Pearson's r correlation test was used in inferential analysis. Ethical considerations were taken into account at all times. Results. It was evident that 35.4 % (84) of the students had malnutrition, 5.9 % (14) for nutritional deficit and 29.5 % (70) for excess. 64.6 % (153) had a norm...
