One thing I've learned in my weight loss battle is that protein is important. There are many reasons for this, 1) it keeps you full longer, 2) it helps rebuild muscles, and 3) it helps maintain lean body mass.
I got an email the other day from Kashi with a link to find out how much protein I need every day based on my body. Click here to go to the page. I found out that my ideal protein is between 93 and 175 grams per day depending on how active I am that day. 93 would be on days where I am sedentary and up to 175 on days when I am very active. I would usually try to hover in the middle based on my normal activities, but rest days would go down.
What is your ideal protein amount?
