        abstract = {Stunting is a condition of impaired growth in toddlers due to prolonged
nutritional deficiencies. This issue is a significant global nutritional problem,
particularly in poor and developing countries, including Indonesia. This
study aims to examine the relationship between macronutrient intake, food
security at the household level, and nutrition-related knowledge on the
incidence of stunting among toddlers in the working area of Cimarga Health
Center. This study employed a cross-sectional design. The sample size
consisted of 99 toddlers from 11 villages within the Cimarga Health Center's
jurisdiction. Analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test. The findings
reveal a stunting prevalence of 34.3\% among toddlers. There is a significant
relationship between household food security (p=0.014) and the incidence
of stunting (OR=1.630; 95\% CI=1.381-1.923). However, no significant
relationships were found between energy intake (p=0.140), carbohydrate
intake (p=0.544), protein intake (p=0.607), fat intake (p=0.439), and
maternal nutrition knowledge (p=0.411) with the incidence of stunting in
toddlers in the Cimarga Health Center area. This study underscores the
importance of enhancing household food security as a primary strategy to
reduce stunting despite the lack of significant relationships between macro-
nutrient intake and maternal nutrition knowledge.},
