He was a modest man who did not like to brag. I am sure that he was proud of his sister, explains Rumen Stoyanov, a long-time Bulgarian diplomat in Brazil, a Professor of Latin American studies at Sofia University, and an acquaintance of Dilma Rousseff, her mother, and her Bulgarian half-brother.
This is just what I consider to be a good minimum daily protein intake for general health/function. 0.5-0.7 grams of protein per pound of body weight. Average healthy adult (male or female) that IS doing some form of exercise regularly or IS trying to improve their body (lose fat, build muscle, etc.). This is the minimum Iâd recommend in this case. 0.8-1 grams of protein per pound of body weight.
Assuming an individual is taking in an adequate number of calories, the recommended amount of protein for adults is about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight (1 kg = 2.2 lbs). This number changes for athletes, however. Because an athlete places a greater demand on his body when training or performing, the requirement for protein increases. Research has shown that a general recommendation of 1.5-2.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight should ensure adequate protein intake for athletes. Protein intake should consist mostly of high-quality proteins that are of animal origin (eggs, meat, fish, chicken).
