Frequently Asked Questions
Research supports 0.7-1.0g of protein per pound of bodyweight for muscle building. The upper end (1g/lb) is appropriate for those in a calorie deficit trying to preserve or build muscle while losing fat.
Healthy adults can generally handle high protein intakes without issues. However, extremely high intakes (above 1.5g/lb) offer no additional muscle-building benefit and may replace other important nutrients.
