To analyze the relationship between the level of nutritional knowledge and the diet carried out by UPAO Piura Human Medicine students in 2020. Methodology: Observational, cross-sectional and analytical study. To measure the level of nutritional knowledge in university students, a survey taken from “Design and validation of a questionnaire to evaluate the level of general knowledge in nutrition in health sciences university students”, prepared at the Central University of Catalonia in the Year 2015 by Violeida Sánchez Socarrá, Alicia Aguilar Martínez, Fabián González Rivas, Laura Esquius de la Zarza and Cristina Vaqué Crusellas. To find out the type of diet that university students have, the Kidmed survey will be carried out. A bivariate analysis will be carried out to evaluate, through the Chi-square test, the degree of association of the variables studied, with a confidence level (CI) of 95%. A p value ≤ 0.05 will be considered significant. Results: 286 medical students from all cycles were included in the study, with an average age of 21.71 years (SD = 0.1). The level of nutritional knowledge in the Human Medicine students was: 21.65% of the total obtained a low score, 59.44% obtained a medium score and 18.88% obtained a high score. Regarding the diet that Human Medicine students eat: 34.27% have a very low quality diet, 56.64% have the need to improve their eating pattern and 9.09% have an optimal diet. In the bivariate analysis, it was found that the level of knowledge about eating is associated with a healthy diet (p <0.01). In the multivariate analysis carried out, it was found that a high knowledge about nutrition increases by 2.02 ((p <0.01) RPa 2.02 CI = 1.49-2.74) times the prevalence ratio of an optimal diet when adjusted for sex. Conclusion: The level of knowledge in medical students about nutrition is medium and is associated with the type of diet they eat
