During adolescence, what is the recommended daily oil intake in teaspoons?

• A. 5-6 tsp
• B. 3-4 tsp
• C. 4-5 tsp
• D. 6-7 tsp

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is how much fat in the form of oil teens should include daily. Oils are a dense energy source and provide essential fatty acids, so knowing a specific teaspoon amount helps teens meet their energy and nutrient needs without overdoing calories. For adolescence, about 5 to 6 teaspoons of oil per day is recommended. This range supports growth and daily energy needs while keeping fat intake in balance with other nutrients. Using a variety of healthy oils (like olive or canola) and spreading them across meals helps reach this amount naturally. The other ranges are either a bit too low to meet typical teen requirements or slightly higher than what many guidelines suggest for daily intake.
