The diet pattern of Acehnese people tends to be high in fat and protein but low in fiber causes an imbalance in nutrient intake, a risk factor for hemorrhagic stroke. Aim: To determine the effect of eating patterns in the incidence of hemorrhagic stroke in the polyclinic of neurology at RSUD Tgk Chik Ditiro Sigli. Methods: Observational analytic with case control design. Cases were hemorrhagic stroke sufferers, controls were healthy subjects who did not suffer from hemorrhagic strokes and did not have risk factors for hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The number of subjects is 136 subjects.. Eating patterns data is collected using a modified qualitative food frequency form. The results of the study were analyzed using Chi-square, and logistic regression tests. Results: Data obtainained from this research is average age of study subjects was 46.69 years. As many as 73% of subjects were male. The results showed risk factors that were proven to have a significant relationship with the incidence of hemorrhagic stroke were low fiber consumption (OR= 3.61; p= 0.022), obesity (OR= 9.16; p<0,001), smoking (OR= 6,31; p= 0,004), lack of physical activity (OR= 5.53; p= 0,002), LDL-Cholesterol (OR= 8.74; p= 0.003).
