healthy food isn't determined by your age but by the food. Since there are 1000s of good foods I'm not going to begin to list them. Most are common knowedge anyway:

Chips = bad

Tuna = good

A healthy meal contains many of the components of a generally healthy diet. A healthy meal is moderate in added fats (no more than 20 grams per meal) salt (no more than 500mg. per meal) and sugars (preferably 0g, but up to 30g). A healthy meal will have lean protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Healthy meals help provide the daily servings you need from each component in the food pyramid: 3 servings whole grains, 5-8 servings veggies, 3-5 servings fruits, 3-4 servings low-fat/no-fat dairy.

Your healthy meals might differ, depending on your health, budget, etc. For example, my meals include many orange fruits and omega-3s because those improve lung function and I have asthma. This is a sample, healthy menu:

Breakfast

Breakfast should contribute a hefty portion to your daily fiber needs. This meal has nearly 20g. Breakfast also needs healthy fat and protein, which the peanut butter and milk happily supply.

1 med. apple, halved, topped w/

2 tbsp peanut butter

1 cp. skim milk

1/2 cp bran cereal

Lunch

Lunch needs to be able to get you all the way to dinner (you may need a snack, still). And should include fiber, lean protein, and healthy fat. The meat supplies both protein and fat. The vegetables and fruit provide fiber. Lunch is also a good place to start racking up your vegetable count. This meal has three servings of vegetables.

1 cp baby carrots

2 stalk celery

1 cp. skim milk

3 oz lean meat (chicken, pork, etc) rolled into whole wheat tortilla

1 med pear, banana, or 1 cp. strawberries

Dinner

Dinner is similar to lunch. Some say your dinner should be small and breakfast should be large, but I personally prefer a big dinner because it keeps me from getting the munchies in the middle of the night. Dinner is the perfect time to round up your vegetable and fiber intake. This meal has five servings of vegetables and about 15g or fiber. The beans provide the protein in this meal, as well as the skim milk.

Vegetable soup w/

1/8 cp onion

1 tbsp garlic powder or two crushed cloves

1/2 cp no-salt canned petite tomatoes

1/2 cp black or kidney beans

1/2 cp asparagus

1 cp. skim milk

1 slice whole wheat toast

Snack

Snack should help you round out your whole grain, fruit, or vegetable servings for the day. It may help with rounding out your dairy servings, too.

1 med. persimmon or other med. fruit
