Teens

Energy requirements rise in adolescence due to rapid growth and hormonal fluctuations.
Teenagers undergo significant body changes, with boys developing more muscle mass and girls gaining more body fat.
These unique changes necessitate specific energy needs.
A balanced diet full of carbohydrates, proteins, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals can meet these needs.
Sufficient intake of both macronutrients and micronutrients is critical for optimal growth, cognitive function, and physical performance in teenagers.
