No, it's not right. It's suppose to be between 0.8 and 1.0 grams per kilogram of body weight not per pound. This is double what is actually recommended by nutritionists.0

That seems very high. My dietitian told me 25g per meal. That site wanted 60g per meal.0

thats what I thought, no idea where there calculation came from, there must be a more accurate one on here surely.0
