how many oz's of protein should a type 2 diabetic have each day.. I've read several experts that say different things?

thanks,

    I have never heard of a specific amount. I always eat over my protein numbers here to make up for the lower carbs.

    In general I shoot for about 1 gram per lb so I'm about 100 or a little more per day. I tend to eat more fat and protein because of my reduced carb intake. If you have kidney problems you may have problems with protein so I'd ask your dr. if that is the case.
