Frequently asked questions

How much protein do I need per day?

General health needs about 0.8 g per kg of body weight, active people 1.2–1.6 g, and those building muscle often aim for 1.6–2.2 g per kg.

Is protein based on body weight or calories?

Protein targets are usually set per kilogram of body weight because muscle maintenance scales with body mass rather than total calorie intake.

Can I eat too much protein?

For healthy people, moderately high protein is generally safe, but very high intakes offer little extra benefit. Those with kidney issues should seek medical advice.
