This study aims to analyze the relationship between e-commerce use, food choices, and nutritional status. Simple random sampling with proportional random sampling was chosen as the method for this research, with a subject size of 88 students from the Faculty of Health at Muhammadiyah University of Gresik. Data collection was carried out using e-commerce usage questionnaires, FFQ questionnaires, and anthropometric measurements. The Spearman correlation test was chosen to analyze the collected data.
