A protein per meal calculator determines the optimal protein amount per meal to maximise muscle protein synthesis (MPS). Research suggests the body can effectively use around 20–40g of protein per meal for muscle building.

공식

protein_g_per_meal = daily_target / number_of_meals; daily_target = weight_kg × 1.6-2.2
daily_g
Daily protein (g) — Total daily protein target
meals
Number of meals (meals) — How many eating occasions per day
per_meal
Per meal (g) — Protein distributed across meals

단계별 가이드

  1. 1Daily protein target ≈ 1.6–2.2g per kg body weight for muscle building
  2. 2Per meal = Daily target ÷ number of meals
  3. 3MPS stimulation plateaus around 20–40g per meal for most people
  4. 4Leucine threshold (~3g) must be reached to trigger MPS

자주 묻는 질문

How much protein do I need daily?

Athletes: 1.6–2.2 g per kg of body weight. Sedentary: 0.8 g/kg. 70 kg person: 112–154 g/day for training.

Why divide across meals?

Muscle protein synthesis maxes out around 20–40 g per meal. More frequent, moderate protein meals optimise muscle building.

What are good protein sources?

Animal: meat, fish, dairy, eggs. Plant: beans, lentils, tofu, nuts. Mix to meet targets.
