The need for more attention to the development of children at the age of five is based on the fact that malnutrition during this golden period is irreversible, while malnutrition can affect children's brain development. Wasting is a condition of acute malnutrition in toddlers. Body weight for height (BW / TB) is an anthropometric index that indicates the occurrence of wasting. Wasting is directly caused by inadequate nutritional intake and infectious diseases in children, while indirectly it can be influenced by socio-economic factors, parenting styles, food availability and cultural factors. This research is a quantitative study using secondary data from the 2019 Gzi Planning Program (PPG). The research design used is cross-sectional. The results of the bivariate analysis using the chi square test showed that the variables of iodized salt status, gender and iron intake were significantly associated with the incidence of wasting in children under five (p = 0.027, 0.039 and 0.013) at α = 0.05. The results of the multivariate test showed that the variables of iodized salt status and the gender of the children under five were the dominant factors in the incidence of wasting in children under five. Therefore, the government, in this case the health department, needs an integrated and multisectoral program renewal to tackle the incidence of wasting in toddlers, especially programs for toddlers
