These are general guidelines. For personalized advice, consult a healthcare professional or registered dietitian.
Worked Examples
Example 1: Sedentary 70kg Person
Calculation: 70 kg × 0.8 = 56 grams
This person should aim for about 56 grams of protein per day.
Example 2: Very Active 85kg Person
Calculation: 85 kg × 1.5 = 127.5 grams
This active individual should aim for about 127.5 grams of protein per day.
