With the release of Bayou Country, Creedence became the most popular rock band in America.

Updated April 19, 2017. It's important that we eat enough protein each day to cover our body's needs. There are two ways of calculating a person's protein requirements. The standard minimum amount of daily protein recommended is .37 gram per pound of body weight (or .8 grams per kilogram of body weight). Although, your own personal needs may vary based on multiple factors including your age, activity level, and weight loss goals, let's start off easy.
Each gram of protein has four calories, so for a 2,000 calorie per day diet, that equals 75 to 100 grams of protein per day. A person who eats 1,500 calories per day would need about 55 to 75 grams per day. That's quite a spread, but you can narrow it down by basing your protein needs on your body weight. The average adult needs about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight per day. One kilogram equals 2.2 pounds, so a person who weighs 165 pounds (75kg) would need about 60 grams of protein per day. A few weight loss diets suggest upping your intake of protein, but that may not really be necessary.
