A member asked:
Would it be safe for a teen to be burning 1000 calories a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: A 14 year old is probably burning more than 2000 depending on activity level. Check with your pediatrician about the child's position on growth chart and how active/slothful they are. If they are morbidly obese then diet should be considered.
