Improper dietary restrictions or dieting can indeed have effect on growth and development especially when essential nutrients and minerals are deficient. However, teenager can be allowed to undergo weight reduction methods like dieting if needed to maintain ideal body weight. It is important to determine first the Body Mass Index (BMI) to determine nutritional need category e.g. underweight, overweight, or obese. It is advisable to consult a physician or dietician to plan an individualized diet for the teenager’s needs.
