person0 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 14 minutes ago, Sunday21 said: You know what...I think you are right. That level of protein is ridiculous. Just looked this up: The DRI (Dietary Reference Intake) is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or 0.36 grams per pound. This amounts to: 56 grams per day for the average sedentary man. 46 grams per day for the average sedentary woman. Thank you so much for posting this, Person0. I think my nutritionist is nuts! She has insisted on this level of protein repeatedly but ...clearly nuts! You're welcome. Also, it's not that that much protein is a bad thing, especially depending on your fitness level. I sometimes have even more than 75g in a day. However, it's usually not common to eat that much protein across 3 regular balanced meals. Here is a 'yuge' info-graphic that shows more ways to get it via meat and non-meat sources alike. Sunday21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
