Defisiensi seng dan vitamin C mempengaruhi kejadian tonsilitis terkait fungsi dalam sistem imun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan asupan seng dan vitamin C dengan kejadian tonsilitis pada balita. Metode : Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian case control. Subjek balita usia 2-5 tahun sebanyak 50 subjek terdiri dari 25 subjek kasus dan 25 subjek kontrol diambil dengan teknik consecutive sampling. Penentuan subjek mengalami tonsilitis atau tidak dilakukan dengan diagnosis dokter melalui pemeriksaan tonsil. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi riwayat asupan seng dan vitamin C diambil menggunakan Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQFFQ), identitas subjek dan orangtua/pengasuh, data hygiene mulut, dan data kebiasaan makan dengan wawancara langsung. Analisis data dengan uji Chi-square, Fisher’s Exact, Mann Whitney, dan Independent T.Hasil : Status gizi subjek sebagian besar tergolong normal berdasarkan BB/TB, BB/U, maupun TB/U. Sebanyak 56% subjek kelompok kasus memiliki kebiasaan makan yang berisiko dan 100% subjek pada kelompok kasus memiliki hygiene mulut yang kurang baik. Subjek kasus memiliki riwayat asupan seng yang kurang sebanyak 52% dan riwayat asupan vitamin C yang kurang sebanyak 80%. Riwayat asupan seng memiliki hubungan dengan kejadian tonsilitis (p<0,05), sedangkan riwayat asupan vitamin C tidak terdapat hubungan dengan kejadian tonsilitis (p>0,05).Kesimpulan : Risiko tonsilitis pada subjek dengan riwayat asupan seng kurang dari kebutuhan 4,3 kali lebih besar dibandingkan subjek dengan riwayat asupan seng cukup.
