The objective was to determine the expenditure on food consumption outside the home (GCAH) and how much it represents of family income, in households with children under five years (HCN<5A) and households with elderly adults (HCAM) - 2017. The research design used was cross-sectional, descriptive, and quantitative, based on the aggregation and analysis of data obtained from the National Household Survey (ENAHO) 2017. The result shows that GCAFH in HCN<5A is S/ 3280.40, representing 8.29% of their income, and in HCAM it is S/ 2407.80, representing 6.83% of their income. It was concluded that GCAFH is higher in HCN<5A. In the case of households with the highest expenditure, these are the ones that do not have elderly adults in the household composition. It is necessary to control the quality of food sold outside the home, so that those who buy and consume have a healthy food option.

The care of people is carried out in permanent interaction, and the scientific knowledge of nursing professionals who directly express the educational and supervision strategies to the person in need of care is essential. The efficiency and effectiveness of its functions depends on this, both in the human aspect and in compliance with the procedures to be carried out with the patient and family. TB alters the quality of life of users. Likewise, when diagnosed it represents great changes in their lifestyle for the user: a costly increase in economic spending and psychological changes, as well as for the family and the State. Furthermore, users require special care regarding TB, as they are considered a labile and risk group, so it is essential to safeguard their full well-being. It is vitally important to determine the level of self-care practices in patients receiving treatment against tuberculosis. The study will help lay the foundations for future research, with the results obtained we will be able to identify what or which areas we must reinforce during patient education, likewise during treatment supervision it will allow us to focus on the precise care that helps to have success of the treatment and with the contributions provided, reduce abandonment rates.
