Protein guidelines

Why protein matters

Protein builds and repairs muscle, keeps you full and helps protect lean mass when you eat less.

Daily target per kg of body weight

  • General health: 0.8 g
  • Active: 1.2–1.4 g
  • Strength training: 1.6–2.2 g
  • Losing weight: 1.2–1.6 g to protect muscle

Good protein sources

  • Chicken, turkey, lean meat and fish
  • Eggs, Greek yoghurt and cottage cheese
  • Lentils, beans and chickpeas
  • Tofu, tempeh and edamame
  • Protein powder when food falls short

Good to know

Spread protein across the day: 20–40 g per meal suits most people. If you have kidney disease, check your target with your doctor.
