How much protein do you need?

This is actually a surprisingly hot topic considering that human protein consumption has been studied extensively for decades. The USDA has suggested an RDA of .8 grams of protein per kilo of body weight. Plant-based protein powder is one option many people consider when working out how to best meet their protein needs. Other countries and research organizations use slightly higher or lower numbers as their RDA. Some groups argue for a higher baseline RDA based on certain research results. And not surprisingly other studies have concluded the opposite. What should we do? Let’s look at what is universally agreed on.

How to Get Enough Protein on a Plant-Based Diet

Here are the factors that are generally agreed on for calculating ideal protein intake:

  • Your age
  • Your gender
  • Your genetics
  • Your activity level (epigenetics)
  • The sources of your protein (epigenetics)
  • If you have a specific goal to build more muscle mass

The USDA recommends that an adult eats approximately .8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight on average. But again, this varies a bit depending on the above factors. Recommendations for women are even more nuanced due to addition factors such as monthly cycle and whether a women is pregnant or lactating.

Since there are 2.2 pounds per kilogram, the recommended amounts of protein for adults is .36 grams of protein per pound of body weight. For example a female that weighs 150 pound would have a protein RDA calculation as follows:

150 x .36 = 54 grams of protein on average per day. This translates into ounces as follows.

54g/28.35= 1.9 oz of protein per day for an adult that weighs 150 lbs.

There is significant debate on this topic, so it’s fair to assume that there is approximately a 20-30% variation from person to person depending on the factors that apply to you. If you weigh 150 lbs, then you could feel comfortable with a protein consumption range of 1.5 ounces to 2.5 ounces of pure protein (100% protein) per day.

Note: In the above calculations that refer to “pure protein” which would be 100% protein, it’s essential to remember that there is no such thing as 100% protein found in nature, or in stores. The closest you can get to 100% would be protein powders that are 80% pure protein such as Sprouted Brown Rice Protein.

Remember: It’s the Amino Stack Effect That Counts.

It’s actually impossible to do an accurate calculation on your daily protein intake when you’re eating a normal diet that includes a variety of foods. Why? Because even foods we don’t normally think of as “protein foods” such as veggies, actually contain good quantities of amino acids. And remember that it’s amino acids that your body is using not this handy word, “protein”. Remember, “protein” is simply a word we normal people use so we don’t have to say, ” 9 essential amino acids that we must consume.”

Your body uses Amino Acids every moment, not “Protein.”

Allow us to get technical for a moment here. Chemists and Biologists use the word “protein” for any combination of Amino Acids, and there are hundreds of “proteins” found in nature. Why? Because amino acids are the building blocks of all life forms. So these multitudes of amino acid chains that are labeled “proteins” create everything from insects, birds, plants and animals.

Eating More Plant Protein for Weight Loss.

Some studies have shown measurable benefits from increased protein consumption as a helpful component in a weight loss program. But only to a certain point. And they discovered that when looking more closely at the data, the researchers realized that the increased protein was more effective for weight loss if the increase in protein directly replaced consumption of sugar and refined carbohydrates as opposed to simply eating more protein without reducing at least some of the sugars and refined carbs.

Can I eat too much protein?

Yes. But this topic is not black and white. It depends on a whole host of factors that range from age, activity level, gender, sources of protein and genetics. It’s typically agreed that you are in more danger of eating too much protein if the protein sources include beef and pork due to all the unhelpful “anti-nutrients” that come along with these heavy meats; and, because all meats are completely missing any of the other essential nutrients such as dietary fiber, phyto-nutrients, and many vitamins and minerals that are found in abundance in plant-based food.

What Others Are Saying About 30G:

“So far I’m liking this better than all the other straight-up protein powders that I’ve tried. Sometimes I like to add this 30g powder to their Cacao Plus powder roughly 50-50 for the taste aspects and all the other good nutrition stuff in Cacao Plus.” Daveed L.

“I’ve always loved Sarvaa products. I have used their Cacao Plus for years. This is because I started feeling like I needed more protein in my meal replacement so I thought, “Maybe it’s time to try a new product”. I tried 2 very popular products that were not Sarvaa. These products claimed to be “clean”. The way my body immediately responded to these products was very negative.

I started examining the ingredients of these other brands a little more closely and I started to see Xanthum Gum, Guar Gum, Synthetic sweeteners and very poor quality of vitamin added. All of this while still claiming to be of the highest, clean quality. Then I returned to Sarvaa to request a higher protein powder be added to their products and *lo-and-behold* they had already created one! I tried it and I’m hooked! It’s just what I was looking for! I just add a scoop to my Cacao Plus and it creates a protein-packed, very clean smoothie that my body absorbs and processes easily and properly. I very much appreciate the EXTREME QUALITY of this product and its ingredients. I’m so grateful to have this product available. Thanks Sarvaa!” Melissa M.

“I’ve been lucky to be one of the ‘behind the scenes’ testers of 30g for the last year, and I’m hooked. I’m an average athlete so I can’t speak to the efficacy of 30g for someone who is competing in ultra high level athletic events. However, I can say that this has definitely improved my performance in terms of my overall energy and my strength. And I’m happy to report that this easy protein is saving me some time and money since it’s easy to add to everything from shakes to oatmeal. It’s got a very neutral flavor that I really appreciate.”  David V.
