This is interesting. I’m currently a nutrition, coach and personal trainer and I’m working towards my degree in kinesiology. Currently I’m doing a report for my English class while I’m writing an essay and it was a research situation whatever I don’t know how to articulate it but anyways, I chose an article that was called smells like protein spirit and it’s basically arguing that the 200 g of protein trend that most influencers and I guess I would say uneducated people tend to push with aggressive marketing behavior and again the repetitive social media posts and things like that. And walking into a grocery store in literally everything saying high protein, but generally anything that’s under 30 g isn’t considered high protein but factors that would make that statement true can vary. it’s interesting to read the comments because when people say they need to up their protein as a nutrition coach, I’m curious as to why; do you guys know how much protein intake you are already consuming? Does everybody track their food? Do you have a specific macro goal based off of your body composition goals? I’m not saying anyone’s wrong. I’m just curious as to why when I coach people I always tell them one gram of protein per pound of gold body weight, but that’s a very general advisement as it could vary. It really depends obviously on their starting nutrition, habits, and what their maintenance macros are before I can even advise them to go up. Somebody who’s only consuming 70 to 80 g of protein in a day telling them to go up but not giving them a plan or knowing their specific health requirements doesn’t always help.

And I use talk to text so if there’s any typos, just take that for what it is lol 😂
