Protein: Benefits, Food Sources and How Much You Need
Nutrition Fact
Protein contributes to the maintenance and growth of normal bones and muscle mass.
Nutrition Description
Protein is important because it is a crucial macronutrient that supports the growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues, produces enzymes and hormones, supports immune function, and provides energy, making it essential for overall health and well-being. It's found in a wide range of everyday foods, and most adults have a specific daily amount to aim for.
Food Sources
Protein is found in both animal and plant foods, including meat, fish, eggs, dairy, beans, lentils and nuts. Plant-based sources like pea protein, hemp protein and rice protein are especially useful for anyone following a vegan or vegetarian diet, or looking to boost their intake with a convenient powder.
How Much You Need Per Day
The EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) for protein is 50g per day for the average adult, though individual needs vary depending on activity level, age and goals. Athletes and those looking to build or maintain muscle mass often require more than the standard NRV.
