While the Vitamin A variable has odds ratio 0,659 significantly, the odds of children not getting Vitamin A have short nutritional status 0, 659 times greater than children who received Vitamin A. Conclusion: The risk of stunting occurs in a period of 6 to 24 months due to the period for growth in height.
