07:11 Let us look at the health benefits of these recipes
07:14 Firstly, chicken, fish, eggs, mutton are all excellent sources of complete Protein
07:22 Secondly, Iron present in non-vegetarian food is easily absorbed
07:27 Iron requirements are higher in female adolescents because of menstrual blood loss
07:33 Low Iron levels can cause fatigue, pale skin and increased risk to infections
07:40 Iron is required for growth in lean muscle mass and blood cell volume
07:45 Third, fish like Mackerel, Salmon, Tuna, Cod, Herring and Sardines are good sources of Omega 3 fatty acids
07:55 Omega 3 fatty acids is needed for brain and visual development
08:00 Interestingly, only non-vegetarian food, milk and milk products contain Vitamin B-12
08:07

Vitamin B-12 is required for:red blood cell formation, energy production and neurological functioning

08:17 It also helps in healthy development of fetus during pregnancy
08:22 Also, Meat and Eggs are good sources of Zinc
08:27

Zinc is essential during adolescence for: growth,cognition and sexual maturation

08:34 Therefore, it is of utmost importance to have a well balanced meal
08:39 A combination of different non-vegetarian and vegetarian food should be included in our diet
08:47 This brings us to the end of the tutorial
