Objective: to determine the association between anemia and diet diversity in children 6 to 23 months of age, according to ENDES, Peru 2015 - 2016. Materials and methods: we conducted a cross-sectional analytical study applying a secondary analysis of the Demographic Survey and Family Health (ENDES) 2015 and 2016, which included all children 6 to 23 months of age who were measured hemoglobin. Anemia was considered when hemoglobin values were lower than 11g / dL and it was considered “diverse diet“ for those children who received 4 or more food groups during the day before the interview. A descriptive analysis was also performed, the bivariate and multivariate analysis was performed by testing generalized linear models of the Poisson family to calculate the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (RPa) with their respective 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). ). For the data analysis, STATA 12 was used. Results: 13 545 children were included, of which 51.27% were boys. The average age was 12.76 ± 5.15 months. 57.02% had anemia and 74.90% had a diverse diet. No association was found between anemia and diet diversity; however, anemia was lower in boys (RPa: 0.90; 95% CI: 0.84-0.96), younger (RPa: 0.97; 95% CI: 0.97-0, 98), and greater wealth (Intermediate quintile; RPa: 0.89; 95% CI: 0.80-0.98; Fourth quintile; RPa: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.70-0.89; Upper quintile; RPa: 0.60; 95% CI: 0.51-0.70); and it was higher in children with short stature for age (RPa: 1.11; 95% CI: 1.01-1.22) Conclusion: there is a high prevalence of anemia in children aged 6 to 23 months. No significant association was found between anemia and diet diversity, but with other sociodemographic and clinical variables.
