This is Harvard Health Publishing, they say I need about 0.8 grams of protein everyday, now, that means I would have to consume about 70 grams of protein everyday (minimum) to stay healthy, now, I live in India and don't consume that much, but I consider myself pretty healthy.
So, what's the amount one should realistically be aiming towards? If I were to take 70 grams of protein everyday, what measurable changes can I expect in my lifeπ€?
Do you eat enough in general (eg 3 meals a day, you don't feel hungry most of the time)? It's not hard to meet the basic nutritional goals by just eating what you want when you want. Protein is in everything so it'd be quite hard to be significantly deficient if you're not starving.
I eat a protein low diet, 400 grams of rice and maybe 200 grams of what and some dal (which is protein rich but I eat very less quantity of it). One egg, and this is the best case scenario and I don't think that will get me more than half of what they say I need to be healthy.
