Why Protein Matters

Protein isn't just about building muscle. It's the foundation of countless bodily functions, from hormone production to immune system support. Getting enough quality protein helps maintain steady energy levels and supports your body's natural repair processes.

On a ketogenic diet, adequate protein becomes even more crucial as your body adapts to using fat for fuel while preserving lean muscle mass.

Individual Variation

These calculations provide a starting point, but your optimal intake might differ. Factors like training intensity, recovery needs, age, and individual metabolism all play a role in determining your true protein requirements.

Pay attention to how you feel, your energy levels, and your body's response. That's the best guide for fine-tuning your protein intake.
