Under-nutrition is the cause for poor physical and mental development and has more burden among infants and young children aged between 6 and 23 months. Cultural practices like not providing animal source foods for infants and young child aged between 6 and 23 months were barrier for practicing proper children feeding. The aim of this study was to assess minimum acceptable diet and associated factors among children aged between 6 and 23 months in Orthodox religion during fasting season in rural area, Dembecha, Ethiopia. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted to assess Minimum Acceptable diet. Random sampling technique was applied to select 506 study participants. Interview was used to collect data on Practice of minimum acceptable diet, minimum dietary diversity, minimum meal frequency and related factors among children aged between 6 and 23 months from mothers / caregivers. About 8.6% of infants and young children aged between 6 and 23 months received minimum acceptable diet. Education status of mother(AOR = 0.22,95%CI:0.1, 0.48), involvement of mother in decision making (AOR = 0.22,95%CI:0.10,0.48), birth order of index children (AOR = 0.36,95%CI:0.14,0. 94), knowledge on feeding frequency (AOR = 0.3,95% CI:0.16,0.58), and institutional delivery (AOR = 5.13, 95%CI: 1.26, 20.80) were significantly associated with minimum acceptable diet. Minimum acceptable diet practice was low. Educational status of mother, involvement of mother in decision making, knowledge on feeding frequency and institutional delivery were significantly associated with minimum acceptable diet. This indicates that nutrition education and counseling related to infant and young child feeding practice is not addressed for all mothers. Strengthening mothers’ education on acceptable child feed practice, and working with religion leaders to increase knowledge of mothers on child feed practice are recommended.

埃塞俄比亚西北部 DEMBECHA 农村地区禁食季节 6-23 个月的正统宗教追随者儿童的最低可接受饮食摄入量
营养不足是导致身心发育不良的原因,对6至23个月的婴幼儿造成的负担更大。诸如不为 6 至 23 个月的婴幼儿提供动物源性食品等文化习俗是实施适当儿童喂养的障碍。本研究的目的是评估埃塞俄比亚登贝查农村地区禁食季节 6 至 23 个月的东正教儿童的最低可接受饮食和相关因素。进行了一项以社区为基础的横断面研究,以评估最低可接受饮食。随机抽样技术用于选择 506 名研究参与者。访谈用于收集有关最低可接受饮食、最低饮食多样性、来自母亲/照顾者的 6 至 23 个月儿童的最低进餐频率和相关因素。大约 8.6% 的 6 至 23 个月婴儿和幼儿接受了最低可接受的饮食。母亲教育状况(AOR = 0.22,95%CI:0.1,0.48),母亲参与决策(AOR = 0.22,95%CI:0.10,0.48),指标子女出生顺序(AOR = 0.36,95%) CI:0.14,0.94)、喂养频率知识 (AOR = 0.3,95% CI:0.16,0.58) 和机构分娩 (AOR = 5.13, 95%CI: 1.26, 20.80) 与最低可接受饮食显着相关. 最低可接受的饮食习惯很低。母亲的教育状况、母亲参与决策、喂养频率和机构分娩的知识与最低可接受饮食显着相关。这表明与婴幼儿喂养实践相关的营养教育和咨询并非针对所有母亲。建议加强母亲对可接受的儿童喂养做法的教育,并与宗教领袖合作,增加母亲对儿童喂养做法的了解。
