Government resources and nutrition experts offer guidelines to help you determine how much protein you should take in. The Institute of Medicine estimates that, on the average, men should get about 56 grams of protein per day and that women should get about 46 grams. It adds that your body breaks down dietary proteins to amino acids.
Sedentary people need about 0.36 grams of protein per 1 pound of body weight. If you donât work out regularly, you fall into the sedentary category for protein intake. According to the University of California, Los Angeles, sedentary people need about 0.36 grams of protein per 1 pound of body weight per day. This is the approximate amount of protein that will help you maintain your bodyâs current muscle mass. As an example, a 150 pound person would need 54 grams of protein per day. This varies depending upon your sex and age, so consult your doctor for a more precise figure.
