Protein Intake Calculator
How this calculator works
This calculator estimates your daily protein intake using your body weight and activity level. Different goals such as maintenance, fat loss, or muscle gain may slightly affect protein needs.
The result is shown as a range rather than an exact number, as individual requirements can vary.
Example
If you weigh 80 kg and are physically active, your estimated protein intake may fall between 95 and 115 grams per day.
Important note
This calculator provides a general estimate for informational purposes only. Individual protein needs may vary based on age, health status, and other factors.
