    Objective: To check if there is a relationship between HAs and EN of Venezuelan migrants from a Motorcycle Taxi Transport Company in Lima Cercado, 2022. Material and method: The present study was descriptive, correlational, quantitative, cross-sectional and non-experimental, with a sample of 40 people from 18 to 59 years of age. The following instruments were used: a) A Questionnaire on Eating Habits and b) Nutritional Assessment Tables and Scales. Results: 60% of participants, aged 18 to 59, had inadequate HAs and 40% had adequate HAs. According to BMI, 30% had a normal NE. 35% were overweight, 25% obese and 10% thin. Conclusions: There is a greater proportion (60%) of inadequate HAs in Venezuelan migrants. Only 40% had adequate HAs. The evaluation of NE by BMI revealed that 30% of respondents had a normal NE. 35% were overweight, 25% obese and 10% thin. Overweight and obesity of 60% were due to malnutrition due to excess food intake. Thinness, malnutrition due to defect in food consumption. The difference between overweight and obesity (60%) and normal NE (30%) resided in the inadequate HAs adopted by migrants. There is a direct and significant correlation at the level of 0.01 (Bilateral) between the HAs and the EN of Venezuelan migrants from a Motorcycle Taxi Transport Company in Lima Cercado, 2022.
