abstract
A study to Evaluate the Impact of Peanut Chikki Consumption on Enhancing the Nutritional Health status of School Children in Selected Government Schools in Bangalore. Purposive sampling led to 30 samples each in the control and experimental groups. Key findings include the predominant age group of 10-11 years, with Hindu and Christian backgrounds in the experimental and control groups, respectively. Parental education was primarily at the primary level, while the majority of parents were engaged in coolie work and had a monthly income below Rs. 3000. Post-intervention, the experimental group showed improvements in weight, hemoglobin levels, and nutritional checklist scores, supported by 't' values exceeding critical values at 0.05 significance level. Chi-square analysis revealed significant associations between post-test outcomes and demographic variables.
