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.
Daily Requirements for Adolescents and Adult Women. For most healthy individuals, protein should make up about 10 to 35 percent of the daily caloric intake, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Adolescent girls, ages 14 through 18, and adult women need 46 grams of protein per day. Pregnant women must increase their protein intake to both properly support fetal growth and fulfill their own daily requirements. The American Pregnancy Association recommends 75 to 100 grams of protein per day for pregnant women. This requirement decreases to about 71 grams of protein daily for breastfeeding women, according to the University of Illinois McKinley Health Center.
