Nutrition??!


Question: Nutrition!?!?
I have to find out the nutritional needs for the different stages of life: infancy (boys and girls), teens (boys and girls), adults (men and women), pregnancy, and older adults (men and women)!. I need to guide on what each sex should eat in each stage!. I am having problems finding this because I dont' want big wordy pages, I just need the basics on what they should and shouldn't eat and why!.

Any help on what sites provide just this would be great! ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
well I dont know much about infants but I can help you with teens and adults!.

Teens-Need lots of calcium to support there growing bones!.
STay away from processessd foods because they develop bad habits and is the number 1 cause of obesity
Fruits and veggies preferably 3-6 servings daily
Whole grain breads or whole wheat

Adults-Fiber for women 25 grams and men 38 grams, helps with healthy digestion and regularity
fruits and veggies 4-8 servings
Whole grain and whole wheat bread(no nutritional value in white breads)
4 servings of calcuium(as you get older the calcium becomes less absorbed by the body so more is needed to prevent osteoporosis!.

Pregnancy- need to stay away from caffeine/alchohol
Sorry, I really dont know any more but hope I helped somewhat:)Www@Answer-Health@Com
