MCCP?s nutritional status was categorized into two: household with chronic energy deficient (CED) mother/caregiver and/or at least one child who was stunted, and household without CED mother/caregiver and stunted child. Secondary data from the 2013 National Nutrition Survey conducted by DOST-FNRI was used for the study. Mothers/caregivers who were included in the study were non-pregnant aged 19 years and above, their children, and their household characteristics. Descriptive and analytical analysis via binomial logistic regression was done using Stata 12.1. Results showed that the HFIAS gave the highest estimated prevalence of food insecurity with 75.1% (95% CI: 73.9-76.3) while for FCS, it was 15.7% (95% CI: 14.7-16.8). The estimated proportion of households with CED mother/caregiver and/or at least one stunted child was 38.7% (95%CI: 37.5-39.9), while those households without CED mother/caregiver and stunted child was 61.3% (95% CI:60.1-62.5). Significant associations were observed after adjusting for the confounding variables. For the HFIAS indicator, food insecure households were 1.28 (95% CI: 1.09-1.48) times more likely to have a mother/caregiver with CED and/or at least one stunted child than food secure households. Food insecure households classified by the FCS indicator had 22% (95% CI: 1.01-1.35) higher chance than food secure households to have a CED mother/caregiver and/or at least one stunted child. There was a significant association between household food insecurity and occurrence of undernutrition in a household. To improve the households? nutritional status interventions that are both nutrition specific and nutrition sensitive should be implemented. More researches have to be done to identify the sensitivity and specificity of the household food security indicator in accurately identifying food insecure household. Nutrition. Nutritional status.
