    I am always over on protein and fiber, which I think is a good thing. If you are eating like an extremely high amount I would be worried but I don't think that you are. MFC sets it low, I believe 15% percent of your calorie intake is set for protein. I would be more worried about going over on carbs, sugar & fats. Protein helps you build muscle and stay full for longer :)

    Mine is always in the red also. Honestly i dont really pay attention to it bc as long as it's lean protein that you're eating (which you are) i don't see it as a problem. I would rather have more protein in my diet since i am going to the gym several times a week working out doing cardio and weights.

    USA/China Study. Debunked indeed. Each to his own.
