Protein calculator

Many people search protein alone before they care about full macros. This tool shows a general adult baseline near the DRI-style 0.8 g/kg/day and a higher band that tracks typical sports-nutrition practice for resistance training and performance goals (not individualised medical advice).

Sources in plain language

U.S.–style adult protein reference intakes cluster near 0.8 g/kg/day for general adequacy. Sports nutrition reviews often cite roughly 1.4–2.0 g/kg/day for many people doing serious resistance training, depending on phase, total calories, and protein quality. Your lab markers, kidney history, and clinician guidance still come first.
