The aim of this study is to analyze the correlation of somatotype with obesity parameter and to analyze the correlation of nutrition intake with somatotype. This study was an observational with cross sectional design. The study subject was 64 women aged 25-40 years in Semarang, chosen by using random sampling method. The studied variable were somatotype, waist circumference, BMI (Body Mass Index) and nutrition intake. Nutritional intake was measured using Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ). The data was analyzed by using Pearson Product Moment and Rank Spearman. Most subjects had a body type of endomorphic (75%) with highest sub category was mesomorphic-endomorph (59.4%). Subjects who had nutritional status of overweight were 50% and 51,6% had central obesity. The value of endomorph, mesomorph and ectomorph was related to BMI and waist circumference. There was positive correlation between energy intake and endomorph value. In contrast, there was negative correlation between energy intake and ectomorph value. The higher endomorph and mesomorph value and the lower ectomorph value, the higher waist circumference and BMI. The higher energy intake, the higher endomorph and the lower ectomorph value.
