PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY: In addition to affecting the age of pubertal onset, nutrition affects a child's progression through puberty. Puberty triggers a growth spurt, which increases your daily caloric needs. Following a healthy diet helps your body grow without becoming overweight. An adolescent also needs more protein, iron, calcium, zinc, and folate during puberty for healthy growth. Menstruating girls are at an especially high risk of iron deficiency. Failing to get enough calcium or protein during puberty may damage your bone and muscle growth, which could affect your health later in life.
