How much protein does a 12 year old girl need every day?

Answer 1

70-100 grams, since she is, or soon will be, a "growing teenager" in puberty. Once mature, she can flourish on about 50 gm. / day, unless she does heavy athletics or weight-training.

One ounce of protein is 28 grams. Meat is about 25% protein. Milk about 10%. A glass (8oz.) of milk is 9 grams of protein. Eggs have 6 gms each. A three ounce portion of meat, fish or fowl is about 20-25 grams. Brewers Yeast is 50% protein.

Besides meats and dairy, one can get high - quality protein from nuts, beans, brown rice, peas, wheat germ, and other foods. For nonmeat sources, it is needed to mix 2 or 3 different food sources, to make up a complete array of the necessary amino acids.

Answer 2

almost 3 cups of milk a day
