What to Eat. Most teens need five to ten servings of grains or starchy foods per day, two to three servings of fruit, three to five servings of meat or other protein-rich foods, two to three servings of vegetables, four to five servings of dairy and two to four servings of fat each day.
Most teen girls need about 1.2 milligrams of vitamin B6 per day, which you can get in about two bananas or a single serving of 100-percent fortified cereal. Other foods rich in B6 include beans, nuts, fish and spinach. Vitamin B12 helps your body produce red blood cells and aids in nerve-cell function.
