    I’ve read this stated before and I don’t see how it’s true.

    • us RDA is based on weight and we’re a fat country. It looks like I’d need to eat 5 chicken breasts/day. Unless there’s a lot of hidden protein in my diet, That never happens
    • most of this is backlash against gymbro recommendation with much higher protein levels to build muscle, that’s not really evidence based. Sure the specific levels are questionable but it does makes sense that some amount more is better: maybe I need to eat 6 chicken breasts in a day if I started exercising . That also never happens
