The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between risk factors and iron deficiency anemia in children aged 6 to 24 months who attend the "Pueblo Nuevo Health Center" - Chincha 2024. Method: The research had a quantitative, basic, cross-sectional, correlational approach, with a sample of 61 children aged 6 to 24 months with iron deficiency anemia. A questionnaire validated by expert judgment was used. Results: 65.6% of the children had mild anemia, 34.4% moderate anemia, and none had severe anemia. Sociodemographic and cultural factors are not factors related to the presence of anemia, however, dietary practices such as consumption of blood sausage p>0.05, spleen p>0.05, liver p>0.05, beef p>0.05 and eggs p>0.05, are significantly related to the presence of iron deficiency anemia in children aged 6 to 24 months who attend the “Pueblo Nuevo Health Center” – Chincha. It is concluded that the consumption of iron-rich foods is an important factor to prevent and combat anemia in children, since it provides the iron requirements necessary at this stage of life.
