nutrition for teen athletes

Question
Mr DeHart. I hope you don't cross me off since I asked a question a few months ago. What daily nutritional requirements are necessary for a teen male to have in order to prevent and combat injury during intense track training? My son tends to complain weekly about this and that aggravation. I want him to fuel his body properly as the season progresses to counteract what is taking toll on his body. I don't know if he's getting the levels of protein and other essential vitamins needed. I thought I'd ask you because it didn't seem that I had an expert in the diet/nutrition category that would have this first hand knowledge.

Thanks,
Kim
