What is the daily food requirements of an
adolescent aged 12 – 18 years?
Breads, Cereals, Rice, Pasta, Noodles
The nutrients provided by the foods in this group
include carbohydrates, protein, fibre and a widerange of vitamins and minerals. Wholemeal orwholegrain varieties provide more fibre, vitamins and minerals.
Fruit
Fruit is a good source of vitamins. It also provides carbohydrates, especially in the edible skins. Juices belong to this group, but they have a much lower fibre content than fresh fruit.
MEAT, FISH, POULTRY, EGGS, NUTS, LEGUMES
The foods in this group are a good source of protein and iron. Within this group, red meats are a particularly good source of iron and also zinc.
Milk, Yoghurt, Cheese
The foods in this group are an excellent source of calcium; very few other foods in the Australian diet contain as much of this important nutrient.
Other Foods
They are not essential to provide the nutrients the body needs and some contain too much added fat, salt and sugars. These foods are likely to contribute large amounts of energy.
Vegetables
Vegetables and legumes are a good source of vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre and carbohydrate.

TIME TO CREATE YOUR OWN FOOD PYRAMID!Be creative and also be mindful of the daily requirements
and how much food you put in each group. For example – you wouldn’t fill half your pyramid/circle with ‘extra foods’
because the daily requirement is only 1 - 3
