In the contemporary times, teenager fitness is something that has become a serious cause of concern for the society. Teenagers are not really living a healthy lifestyle. Earlier, people used to follow the idea of 'early to bed and early to rise.' But, now our youngsters neither go early to bed, nor do they wake up early in the morning.
In the name of adopting healthy eating habits, teens prefer eating fad foods that virtually have no nutritional value. They always get lured into trying unhealthy foodstuff, ignoring the fact that they are harmful for their body. |

Here are some teen lifestyle tips: |
Food
- You should eat
plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, as they are important
sources of vitamins and minerals.
- Milk and other
dairy products like meat, fish, eggs etc should be consumed only
in moderate quantities.
- Fats should not be
taken in large quantities, but then that does not mean, you don’t
need to eat fats, but what is required is to restrict your
consumption to smaller quantities.
- Sugary foodstuff
like cakes, biscuits, sweets, soft drinks, and ice cream can become
a cause of tooth decay; so restrict your consumption to smaller
quantities.
- In a nutshell, your
total food intake per day should be such that 50% of the calories
should come from complex carbohydrates such as cereals, rice and
bread. About one third contribution should come from milk and other
dairy products and the rest from fats.

Exercise:
It is very essential for each one of us to do some sort of physical
activity. Pursuing sports is not only a great hobby, but also a
fabulous way to keep in shape. But teens tend to skip on this
important aspect of their life, so as to hang out with friends. This
is the point, from where youngsters deflect from their path of
leading a healthy lifestyle. |

Sleep:
Having a sound sleep goes a long way in maintaining your overall
fitness. In fact proper sleep is one of the main beauty secrets
of celebrities. If you have a healthy sleep, it shows on your
face in the form of glow. Lack of proper sleep is likely to
cause irritability and the scope of mood swings increases |
