[quote=Anonymous]My 12 year old is big, 97th %ile for height, and gearing up for a growth spurt. He's also incredibly active, getting up on his own to run before school, playing two sports at a high level, and choosing things like basketball at the park whenever he has down time. So, not surprisingly, he eats a ton, and particularly craves food with protein. But, I feel like so many kinds of protein have some kind of warning about consuming too much. Eggs, red meat -- cholesterol Soy -- estrogen Fish -- mercury Protein powder -- processing etc . . . To complicate things, we've got nut allergies in our house. He eats them away from home, but we don't cook with them at home, eat them in the car, etc . . . If you have a kid eating thousands of calories a day, and wanting a lot of protein, what are you serving them? Can you give me a sample day's diet? [/quote]
