How Much Protein Should I Eat

By Dierra Pierra

Thanks to rise of whey protein, extra protein consumption has become very popular. Bodybuilders have been taking extra protein for a long time now but it was never really this easy and painless to get so much protein into your system at will. But that begs the question, what quantity of protein should we eat each day? The answer depends on your body mass and diet but it can still be calculated easily.

A lot of excess protein can also ruin your appetite and disrupt your digestive system. Extra protein doesnt have any real side effects but you can cause some damage to your kidneys when you do so in order to avoid this happening, drink a lot of excess water which should help them deal with the extra protein in your system.

If i was to workout regularly, how much protein should i eat?

In order to find out how much protein you need, just calculate it based on your recommended calorie intake for the day. The story is different if you workout at least three times a week and are trying to build muscle mass. In that case just simply consume 1g of protein for 1lb of your body mass. So a person who is 135lb should consume about 135g of protein each day.

How much should i eat if im just dieting?

As mentioned before, just stick to the 35% mark of your daily intake. If you are on a 1500 calorie diet for example, then you need to have roughly 550 calories from protein. For person on a 1500 calorie diet, that is simply just over a hundred grams of protein.
