It really depends on their weight.  On average it's about 15-16 grams per day.  Or between .50g and .60g per pound of body weight until they reach 4 years of age.

Firstly, stop being a twelve year old girl.  Secondly, protein, foo', protein.  Meat, cheese, milk, nuts, beans, and thirdly, anything nutrient dense.  Think whole grain bagels, not cheetos.

You should be getting 1.5 - 2 grams of protein per lb of bodyweight.  Protein consumption should be all day long with about 2.5 hours in between meals.  Pre and post workout meals should be the most important.  Drink plenty of water in conjunction with eating frequently throughout the day.

Growing kids are like bottomless pits, especially during growth spurts or if they're into energetic activities.  Assuming that they are not overweight or underweight, but just active children, I'd try things with lots of fiber and bulk... like light popcorn, bananas, apples, pears, whole grain crackers (even graham crackers), lowfat cheese (like string cheese or 2% cheese cubes), lowfat yogurt (GoGurt tubes frozen and eaten like a push-up pop is great!)\n\nLimit anything with a lot of sugar vs bulk (like grapes or oranges or juices - even natural sugars will make them feel hungry again in a short while) and have them drinking lots of water with snacks because sometimes thirst feels like hunger, especially to children.  Could be they're really just thirsty!\n\nCelery with peanut butter is another good choice... it's filling... or baby carrots with lowfat ranch dressing to dip them into.  My mom used to give me a baggie of celery and carrot sticks and send me outside to play - lol  Just remember that the longer it takes to digest something, the longer it will "stick with them"   :)\n\n(Obviously I attacked the snack time issue - lol  I'm assuming they're eating three healthy normal meals each day from what you said...)    :)

Hello. My six-year old daughter has PKU. \n\n1) Women can and are encouraged to breastfeed. They do not have to follow any diet for themselves. It is one area regarding a baby with PKU that my wife and I were relieved to discover.\n\n2) Phenylalenine tolerance varies from patient to patient. My daughter can tolerate four to five grams of protien per day. This is roughly equivalent to a teaspoon of peanut butter. Many kids can tolerate even less. Pasta and most wheat-based foods must be cautiously monitored due to the high amounts of gluten, which contain protien. The diet is regulated by a special dietary formula drink that 'screens out' phenylalenine, but is fortified with the remaining amino acids. There are phe-free foods which we must purchase, to replace our noodles in her diet. \n\n3) When she was first born, we took her to the only place in the state with extensive knowledge of PKU every month for six months. Then it went to every two months for six months. It gradually decreased, and now we have a visit every six months or so. We do have to monitor her blood by sending in samples weekly.\n\nHope this was helpful!

I am under weight for almost 20 pounds and the doctor told me to drink Ensure twice a day and have regular meals (whatever you want to eat) 4 times a day. You should drink the ensure like at 4 pm and before bed.

It really depends on your child, her activity level, her current weight and height.  On average, girls who are about 8 years old need around 2000 calories a day.  The best person to answer this question with certainty is your pediatrician who will know your child best.  These sites should help you.

Depends on how protein you get in your diet. Try to get as much as needed from the food you eat, then supplement with a protein shake or two during the day.

Depends on the age really..if you can handle something like Pedialyte (for kids really) then that's good for you.  Typically I sip 7up or Sprite and eat crackers, very few crackers..slowly.

Consume about a gram of protein per pound of body weight. Get protein from mostly natural sources but it is OK to have a protein shake or two during the day. The key is to get quality protein throughout the day and especially after you workout. I drink a protein shake from ABB called Extreme Body RTD 50. It taste great to me and has 50 grams of protein. Here is a link to some reviews on the ABB protein shake (five different favors now):\n\nhttp://www.nicemuscle.com/extreme-body-shake-81438.htm

Your 4½-month-old baby should be eating about every 2-3 hours during the day and 1-2 feedings during the night.   Your baby should be drinking milk until 6 months old - remember, God gave you your breasts for a reason.

There are other sources of protein. Just be sure you eat cheese and milk and beans. You'll probably live a long and healthy life.
