Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between nutritional adequacy and height-for-age z-scores (HAZ) in toddlers in Kendari City's coastal region. This cross-sectional analysis involved 96 children aged 48‒59 months. Height measurements was converted to HAZ, while a 24-hour dietary recall was conducted to assess nutritional intake. Data were analyzed using Pearson product moment test and multiple linear regressions. The study revealed a significant HAZ correlation with calcium, iron, and copper adequacy levels (p<0.05). Notably, in Kendari City's coastal area, stunting is found in toddlers aged 48‒59 months due to nutritional inadequacy.
