However, this is too much protein for any woman to consume, including very active women. According to the Institute of Medicine, women should consume at least 46 grams of protein every day. Individualized needs are based on a womanâs total calorie intake. Harvard Medical School suggests women consume about 15 percent of their daily calories from protein; since protein provides 4 calories per gram, this is about 75 grams of protein per day for women consuming 2,000-calorie diets.
The average adult needs about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight a day, which comes out to roughly 56 grams of protein a day for men and 46 for women, according to the Institutes of Medicine. But despite protein showing up on more and more food labels, weâre already getting way more than our 46 or 56 grams.
