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.

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.
