- The recommended daily allowance (RDA) is 0.8g per kg of body weight for sedentary adults
- Athletes and active individuals need significantly more protein than sedentary people
- Protein needs increase during pregnancy, breastfeeding, injury recovery, and aging
- Spreading protein intake evenly across meals improves absorption and muscle synthesis
- Both animal and plant sources can meet protein requirements when properly planned
- Excess protein is not stored as muscle — your body converts it to energy or fat
- Older adults need more protein per kg to prevent age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia)
ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਨਜ਼ਰਅੰਦਾਜ਼ ਕਰੋਗੇ ਤਾਂ ਕੀ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ?

- Very high protein intake over long periods may strain kidneys in those with pre-existing conditions
ਸਮਾਰਟ ਸੁਝਾਅ

- Aim for 20-40g of protein per meal to maximize muscle protein synthesis
- Combine plant proteins (beans + rice) to get all essential amino acids
- Consume protein within 1-2 hours after exercise for optimal recovery
