    I think it is actually hard to get too much protein. Like kidney damage levels of protein.

    Every man and his dong has a different recommendation but the more common ones are things like .8 per lb or 1g per lb lean body mass

    140 looks fine to me, not too high or too low, but I guess it also depends on how active you are.

    Unless your doctor tells you otherwise because you have some medical issue, you're good to to! Here, I'll just leave this video here for you to check out. It's got lots of great points form someone who got their PhD in nutritional science in protein metabolism.
