For both teenage boys and girls, 5 to 6 tsp. of fat are recommended daily. Fat can't always be measured by the teaspoon, however, so it is easier

to think of fat in actual percentages. Teens should aim to consume about 25 percent of their calories from fat sources. An actual gram count will vary depending on how many calories you are consuming each day. For example, a healthy teenage girl should eat roughly 1,800 calories per day. Based on this calorie count, between 50 and 70 g of fat should be consumed. A healthy teenage boy may have a higher calorie intake of about 2,200 calories per day; about 61 to 86 g of fat should be consumed.
