What the multiplier means

The calculator multiplies pounds by the grams-per-pound number you choose. Pick 0.36 if you want the general-health baseline, or about 0.7 if you are training and want a higher target. Spread that total across meals. The page does not invent a brand of protein powder.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use goal weight or current weight?
Use current body weight. A target based on a weight you do not weigh yet overstates or understates the grams.
Does this replace a dietitian?
No. Kidney disease, pregnancy, and some medications change the safe range. This is the arithmetic of a common rule of thumb.
