A Teenager’s Nutritional Needs Calories A surge in appetite around the age of ten in girls and twelve in boys foreshadows the growth spurt of puberty. How much of a surge? Let's just say that Mom and Dad might want to oil the hinges on the refrigerator door and start stockpiling a small cache of their own favorite snacks underneath the bed. Calories are the measurement used to express the energy delivered by food. The body demands more calories during early adolescence than at any other time of life.
•Boys require an average of 2,800 calories per day. •Girls require an average of 2,200 calories per day. •Typically, the ravenous hunger starts to wane once a child has stopped growing, though not always. Kids who are big and tall or who participate in physical activity will still need increased amounts of energy into late adolescence. During middle and late adolescence, girls eat roughly 25% fewer calories per day than boys do; consequently, they are more likely to be deficient in vitamins and minerals.
What is healthy eating? Eating healthy is an important part of a healthy lifestyle and is something that should be taught at a young age. The following are some general guidelines for helping your adolescent eat healthy. It is important to discuss your adolescent's diet with his or her health care provider before making any dietary changes or placing your adolescent on a diet. Discuss the following healthy eating recommendations with your adolescent to ensure he or she is following a healthy eating plan:
•Eat 3 meals a day, with healthy snacks. •Increase fiber in the diet and decrease the use of salt. •Drink water. Try to avoid drinks that are high in sugar. Fruit juice can have a lot of calories, so limit your adolescent's intake. Whole fruit is always a better choice. •Eat balanced meals. •When cooking for your adolescent, try to bake or broil instead of fry. •Make sure your adolescent watches (and decreases, if necessary) his or her sugar intake. •Eat fruit or vegetables for a snack. •Decrease the use of butter and heavy gravies. •Eat more chicken and fish. Limit red meat intake, and choose lean cuts when possible.
