The aim of this study was to measure the theoretical knowledge of nurses on regional food and on food security, before and after training. A quasi-experimental study of before-and-after design, conducted with seven nurses working in the Family Health Strategy (FHS) located in a city in the rural area of the Ceará State, Brazil. In data collection, we used pre-test and post-test instruments before and after the training provided through the serial album. We verified that in nine of thirteen questions, nurses answered correctly both the pre-test and post-test questions. On the other hand, in four questions remaining, not all nurses got the pre-test questions right and after training, there was an increase in the number of successes in post-test questions. Thus, we conclude that the training contributed to the improvement of theoretical knowledge of nurses about regional food and food security.
