Kids’ Daily Nutrient Calculator

How much protein, iron, calcium and zinc does your child actually need each day? This calculator estimates daily requirements for children aged 4–18 using RDA guidelines from the ICMR/NIN — the same standards behind India’s national nutrition recommendations. Enter your child’s age to see their targets, then check how well their snacks measure up.

Daily Nutrient
Requirement Calculator

Nutrients are components of food considered to be essential for growth and for maintaining good health. Carbohydrate, fat, protein, water, fibre, vitamins and minerals are all nutrients.
