Each day, kids need to eat about 0.5 grams of protein for every pound (0.5 kilograms) they weigh. That's a gram for every 2 pounds (1 kilogram) you weigh. Your protein needs will grow as you get bigger, but then they will level off when you reach adult size. Adults, for instance, need about 60 grams per day.
For example, a 13-year-old girl who weighs 110 pounds needs about 47 grams of protein per day, and a 125-pound, 16-year-old girl requires about 49 grams of protein each day.he Institute of Medicine established recommended dietary allowances, or RDAs, for protein. RDAs are general requirements estimated to meet the needs of most girls in each age group. RDAs include 34 grams of protein per day for girls ages 9 to 13 and 46 grams of protein each day for teen girls ages 14 to 18.
