Objective:
to identify toddlers’ eating habits.
Method:
a cross-sectional study of quantitative analysis, with a sample of 808 toddlers who attended day care centers in the district of Viseu, Portugal, between November 2018 and September 2019. Data were collected using a questionnaire directed at parents.
Results:
the prevalence of children who ate six meals a day was 42.8%, and 42.5%, those who ate five meals. It was found that 2.0% of children consumed chocolates, 1.0%, desserts, and 0.4%, carbonated beverages, daily. On average, dairy product (M=5.61; SD=2.62) and meat/fish/egg (M=4.80; SD=3.57) consumption was higher than recommended, while fat (M=0.48; SD=0.40), legume (M=0.49; SD=0.45), vegetable (M=1.18; SD=0.87) and water (M=0 .51; SD=0.29) consumption was lower.
Conclusions:
there was a higher or lower consumption than recommended for some foods, highlighting the need to implement nursing intervention programs aimed at promoting healthy eating habits in toddlers and families.

Objectives:
to analyze the knowledge of nurses working in Primary Health Care Units about regional foods, food & nutritional safety.
Methods:
a cross-sectional study conducted with 71 nurses working in health care units in the city of Fortaleza, Ceará. Data were obtained through administration of two questionnaires, subsequently analyzed through statistical tests.
Results:
a satisfactory level of knowledge was found for most nurses, and it was evident that those with graduate degrees had greater knowledge about ‘regional food basics’ (p=0,014) and ‘frequency of use of regional foods’ (p=0,014); the age of the professionals had an inversely proportional relationship with the knowledge about the ‘concept of food & nutritional safety’ (p=0,009).
Conclusions:
nurses had satisfactory knowledge about the themes addressed, and professionals should be encouraged to improve their knowledge and instruct families on the importance of a diet based on regional foods.
