Eat smart, feel strong. Simple food tips for school days, study nights and everything in between.

Healthy Food Choices for Growing Youth

Your body is still growing, so feed it right:

  • Eat 3 proper meals every day, don't skip
  • Get plenty of protein for growth
  • Aim for at least 3 veggies (including leafy ones) and 2 fruits daily
  • Water is the best drink: go for 6 to 8 glasses a day and skip sugary sodas and energy drinks
  • Check your BMI every 3 months to track your growth

Limit sugar (under 6 teaspoons a day), salt (no more than 1 teaspoon added) and deep-fried food.
