how many grams of protein do i need a day
In the UK, adults are advised to eat 0.75g of protein for each kilogram they weigh, based on the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI). So if you weigh 70kg (11 stone), you should eat about 52.5g of protein a day. On average, men should eat 55g and women 45g of protein daily. Thatâs about 2 palm-sized portions of meat, fish, tofu, nuts or pulses. But most people find it very easy to eat a lot more.
