Common Questions: Powering Up with Protein

How much protein do I really need every day?

It depends on how active you are! According to **Harvard** and the **USDA**, sedentary adults need about 0.8g per kg of body weight, but if you’re active or an athlete, you might need closer to 1.2g to 2.0g. For most men, that’s about 56g, and for women, it’s roughly 46g daily.

Can a high-protein diet help with weight loss?

Yes! Clinical studies reviewed by the **Mayo Clinic** show that protein increases your feeling of fullness and helps preserve muscle while you lose fat. It also gives your metabolism a slight natural boost since your body works harder to digest protein than fats or carbs.

What are the best plant-based protein sources?

There are so many! We love using quinoa, tofu, tempeh, and lentils. A great tip we follow at home is combining grains and legumes—like rice and beans—to create a “complete” protein that gives you everything your body needs, just like meat does.
