Protein timing matters — and more isn’t always better. 🍗💪
Research shows that 30–40g of protein per meal is the sweet spot for maximizing muscle protein synthesis — the process your body uses to repair, recover and build lean muscle mass.
Eating far more protein in a single sitting doesn’t dramatically increase this effect — your body can only use so much for building muscle at one time.
Instead, spreading your protein intake evenly across meals helps with:
✅ Muscle building & recovery
✅ Metabolism support
✅ Fat loss & appetite control
Practical tips for high-protein meals:
🥚 Include quality protein sources at each meal — chicken, fish, eggs, lean beef, Greek yogurt, tofu, or a plant-based protein powder.
🥩 Aim for 30–40g of protein per main meal — breakfast, lunch & dinner.
🥗 Pair your protein with healthy carbs and fats for balanced energy and better nutrient absorption.
Bottom line:
It’s not just how much protein you eat — it’s how you spread it across your day to build lean muscle, lose fat, and fuel recovery.
