The average intake of carbohydrates respondents in NTB 128.84g (±53.44) and in NTT 141.02g (±74.61). There were no significant differences energy intake and macro-nutrients in elementary school age children based on education level of parents in NTB and NTT (p≥0.05). We should do intensive counseling and programmed of nutriton balanced diet and the importance things is breakfast for school children. Keywords: Energy Intake, Macronutrients, Level of Education AbstrakDi provinsi NTB terdapat 12.4% dan 11% anak sekolah dasar mengalami gizi kurang dan gizi buruk, serta di NTT sekitar 5.3% dan 6%. Permasalahan pendidikan di wilayah NTB dan NTT masih cukup tinggi yaitu buta huruf, sekitar 419.991 jiwa dan 370.710 jiwa.Menganalisa perbandingan asupan zat gizi makro berdasarkan tingkat pendidikan orang tua di provinsi NTB dan NTT.Data yang digunakan merupakan data sekunder RISKESDAS 2010 dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 886 responden untuk provinsi NTB dan 1064 responden untuk provinsi NTT.
