drop_it_like_a_squat

More eggs, more chicken, more tuna.

Seriously, though. Why not try protein shakes if you struggle to get your protein in w/ "normal" foods?
Other than that: Salmon, cheese, just google high protein foods.

. 35 fat.

MOAR!

Matt_Wild

have 5-6 meals with 35-40g of protein in them. Very easily done. I normally have 6-7 meals with 50-60g per meal. Again, easily done.

bakermanus

Have 0.5 kg chicken and you already have over 100g. Some tuna and more egg white. It is really easy to get 200g protein from food. You should avoid protein powders if it is possible. Eat food and you'll be fine.

Quark and fat free Cottage Cheese are good with berries.

Dude, you are asking for disease in the future...the Body can only metabolize about 26 grams of "protein" per day...the rest is undigestable and sitting around waiting for bad stuff to happen in your future, like having a nice looking body and in 20 yrs getting your "balls" fried from prostate cancer...To much "protein" does it do a Body good?!

26 grams per day? where did you hear this rubbish ?

It might not be healthy if you are not lifting, bu t the dude who eats 5-6 meals with 35-40g of protein in them is for sure lifting.

^ Ignore this incorrect, fictional advice, unless the OP can provide peer-reviewed scientific studies (NOT crackpot vegan propaganda) to prove that the body is incapable of metabolizing over 26g of protein per day.

If you're unable to fulfill your protein needs through whole foods, supplement with protein powder/shakes.

iceqieen

Chicken, eggs, milk products, any kind of fish and meat really.. even my oatmeal has some protein in it :P

You could aim for at least two chicken breasts pr day and some eggs and cheese to go with.. or add protein powder, pretend its chocolate milk

Why? Protein powders are food

You can consume 200grams per day, but not necessary.

Another misconception is that "the more protein you eat, the more muscle you will gain." This is not true. After you have reached your dietary protein requirements, any further protein consumption will be stored as fat or encourage several other undesirable side effects. Excess protein can cause kidney stress. When you eat or drink excessive amounts of protein, your kidneys must work harder to process the protein. Excess protein intake can lead to dehydration as well since your body and kidneys require more water to process the protein. Over time, eating too much protein could predispose you to osteoporosis because excess protein causes calcium to excreted through the urine. A calcium deficiency can cause weak bones and promote osteoporosis.

1) Please define/quantify "excessive amounts of protein".

2) Please explain how protein is stored as fat when the body is operating in a caloric deficit.

Sounds like more vegan propaganda to me. Also, quoting Livestrong as an authority is about as reliable as Wikipedia. I see no references to peer-reviewed studies in that article.

@Dr. AnvilHead,

Where is your peer-reviewed article supporting that eating 200 grams of protein (any type) per day is healthy for individuals and doesnt lead to chronic illnesses at some point down the road?

Look forward to it.

mperrott2205

Chicken, Tuna, Turkey, Nuts, Peanut butter. Just eat more meals a day if you can't do it in the usual 2 or 3 meals a day.

Also, drinking a protein shake will help.

Protein is overrated. try to get about 0.7g/ lb lean mass and ur good to go

There is a lot of sense in this. In my opinion every grams of protein over 1.2 g/LB is waste. You will not gain more muscle if you eat 300-400 grams.(Unless you are on the juice) Thats a different board game.

"any further protein consumption will be stored as fat" it is true when you are bulking. If you are cutting it will be used as energy.
"Excess protein intake can lead to dehydration as well since your body and kidneys require more water to process the protein"
This is true as well, but hey! We all know why we drink more water in the first place.

Show me where I ever mentioned 200 grams (or any specific amount, for that matter) of protein, except in directly quoting you.

Look forward to it.

And again, in case you missed the questions the first time around:

1) Please define/quantify "excessive amounts of protein".

2) Please explain how protein is stored as fat when the body is operating in a caloric deficit.

Look forward to it.

[ETA:] Oh, and btw...protein can be utilized for processes other than MPS. Hint: Google 'gluconeogenesis'. You're welcome.

good video on protien watch it Myths About Protein

ohoh can I peerreview.. I mean I am a peer of a random online person.. right^

You can consume 200grams per day, but not necessary.

ok so you are saying its ok to eat 200g of protein.. if the choice is 200g of protein or 150g protein and 50g more of carbs f ex I would choose the protein as that is less likely to be sugery sweets based...

Another misconception is that "the more protein you eat, the more muscle you will gain." This is not true.

And goes inline with "muscle weighs more than fat" right? Those who are trying to reach a certain minimum of protein pr day are doing so to be sure to have enough for muscle growth/retention.. I dont think anyone thinks it works like spinat for that sailor cartoon character..

After you have reached your dietary protein requirements,

No definition of dietary requirements.. those can range from 50g to 200g or even more depending on lifestyle and size of the person.

any further protein consumption will be stored as fat or encourage several other undesirable side effects.

Protein can also be broken down into energy if the person is eating at a deficit and the body determines it doesnt have any fat/carbs left, I read somewhere on the internet (that is the standard of resources for this discussion right?)

Excess protein can cause kidney stress. When you eat or drink excessive amounts of protein, your kidneys must work harder to process the protein.

How much protein would you need to consume for that to be an issue though? And wouldnt it depend on what else your kidneys are hard at work with? I mean if I drink a beer or three, do I need to lower my protein intake for the day?

Excess protein intake can lead to dehydration as well since your body and kidneys require more water to process the protein.

Dehydration is solved with hydration.. wonder why people always say "drink lots of water!" hmmm... just look at the colour of your pee, or you know.. drink more liquid to feel hydrated.

Over time, eating too much protein could predispose you to osteoporosis because excess protein causes calcium to excreted through the urine. A calcium deficiency can cause weak bones and promote osteoporosis.

Hmm or make sure you are getting enough calcium? Just a thought.. and again, what is "too much"? You start your comment with saying "not necessary" but end it with warning about what is "too much" and completely forget to define where the line is between "too much" and "more than enough".. because those two statements are not equal.

You appear to think that it is peer reviewed "fact" that eating to 200 grams of protein per day [without knowing anything about the individual!] is healthy.

You were unhappy with live strong reference, which is fine with me.

My question remains unanswered, and I challenge the premise of this Topic.

Since you seem to be an expert with fact based knowledge, then i respectfully repeat my question to you:

Where is your peer-reviewed article supporting that eating 200 grams of protein (any type) per day is healthy for individuals and doesnt lead to CHRONIC illnesses at some point down the road?

Once we can have a framework of how much protein per day is acceptable given various parameters for the individual in question, then perhaps we can arrive at the answers to your questions in due course.

Show me where I said that. Quote if for me. Go ahead, I'll wait.

I never directly addressed the OP's question. I never made any specific recommendation as to protein intake for him. I have no idea what his stats/goals are, and know better than to make a blanket recommendation for macronutrient composition based upon what little information he provided in the OP. I simply stated that some advice being given to him was incorrect and lacked a factual basis (yours included).

My question remains unanswered, and I challenge the premise of this Topic.

Well then, there's at least one thing we agree upon. I don't know that 200g of protein is an optimal intake level for the OP either. In fact, I think his whole macro distribution looks whacked and doesn't even add up to the calorie intake he lists (which, in itself, may or may not be appropriate for him and his goals). What I was specifically refuting was the protein scaremongering being dispensed by you and another poster - neither of which was backed by science.

Dude, you are asking for disease in the future...the Body can only metabolize about 26 grams of "protein" per day...the rest is undigestable and sitting around waiting for bad stuff to happen in your future, like having a nice looking body and in 20 yrs getting your "balls" fried from prostate cancer...To much "protein" does it do a Body good?!

I suspect you may be confused a little. If you take protein supplement in the form of a processed shake etc then it's processed form means that less of the protein is bio-available and therefore you will not get your grammes of protein that are listed, you will absorb some of those and your body will not absorb the rest, but it will not "store it" merely pass it as a harmless waste product.

I did double-check your assertion briefly in the academic literature (I am currently researching for a PhD and have access to lots of resources) however there is no research that suggests what you have said. The body will simply take what it wants pass what it does not want to keep as a waste product. With food there are always lots of urban myths around that have begun with fragments of half truths (such as this one where a human body will not absorb all of a protein shake but will bin some of it) and then interpret this information inaccurately and pass it on as truth. This may well be one of them.

Your body has a phenomenal capacity for storing fat and sugars (by converting them and storing them as fat, if unused) but it doesn't store up old protein.

Re: the original post. Fish is a great lean protein and a can of tuna has a huge amount of protein, lesser so but still great is cottage cheese but generally lean fish is always a good one. How about smoked salmon and scrambled eggs for breakfast (you could make it egg whites only and keep the cals and fat down but retain the protein); or kippers.

that is a lot of protein and your body probably won't use all of it. It won't hurt you but it will be wasted and passed out however it won't ultimately do you any harm particularly if you are eating plenty of vegetables and fibre in the remainder of your diet.
