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

Câu hỏi thường gặp
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.
