There are many reasons to eat healthy as a teenager. One main reason is that your body is still developing and growing. By eating healthy and making wise decisions your body will grow into its full potential.
If you want to be a lean or muscular teenager you should begin lifting weights as you reach this age. This muscle development should begin at this age because when you are a teen your body has growth spurts. During theses growth spurts lifting weights will enable your muscles to grow faster than if you begin to lift when you are older.
Another thing that is important is to consider your diet while you are lifting weights. During this time you want to be eating substantial amounts of carbohydrates and a lot of protein. The carbohydrates will help you because they will give you energy so that you can lift longer without getting tired. You should also be aware of your hydration while working out. It is necessary to take in enough fluids to sustain your body's health.

This is a pretty good post for why teens should eat healthy. I think that you should add examples of the types of proteins and carbohydrates that are the best for teens to eat so they know what foods are good for them. Also, I think you might have to add a URL if you got your information from a website. If it's there my bad, I didn't see it.
