Guys...how much protein is too much protein? I've been reading articles of people saying that high protein diets are dangerous for the body and dehydrating! I have about average 120g-130g a day? Is that alright?

Probably a bit higher than you need - but as long as you are properly hydrated, do not have a pre-existing kidney problem, and it is not causing you to be too low on fats as well as other micronutrients - then it is fine.0
