En las últimas décadas se han acumulado evidencias sobre la importancia de una buena alimentación, especialmente en etapas de desarrollo. Durante la niñez y la adolescencia es fundamental una adecuada nutrición para alcanzar el máximo desarrollo físico e intelectual. Por lo cual el objetivo de la investigación es determinar la relación entre los hábitos alimentarios y el estado nutricional en adolescentes de 4º y 5º de secundaria de una institución Educativa Estatal del Callao. La metodología utilizada es de tipo aplicado no experimental, nivel descriptivo y de diseño correlacional. La población de estudio está conformada por 76 alumnos, los cuales llenaron un cuestionario con la finalidad de conocer sus hábitos alimentarios, además se tomó el peso y la talla para evaluar su estado nutricional según el índice de Masa Corporal (IMC). Se realizó la prueba de hipótesis por variables, obtenido como resultado para la hipótesis general un valor de -0.433 según la prueba estadística de Pearson, rechazando la H0 puesto que el valor de p = 0,000 < 0,05. Por tanto, se aprueba la hipótesis 1 demostrando que existe una relación significativa entre los hábitos alimentarios y el estado nutricional. Además podemos observar que el 68.4% de alumnos evaluado presentan hábitos alimentarios adecuados mientras que un 31.6% presentan hábitos alimentarios inadecuados, en cuando a los datos de estado nutricional pudimos observar que el 63,4% presentaban estado nutricional normal, 21.1% sobrepeso y el 10,5% obesidad.
