Check with your supervising health professionals for direction on how much protein you should have in your diet a day. PROTEIN CALCULATOR Click here to discover how much protein you need daily When you eat foods that contain protein, they get broken down into basic units, called amino acids. Think of them as building blocks \u2013 like legos. These building blocks form muscles, blood cells, and the heart, brain and hormones and glands.. Proteins are needed to build our immune system.\u00a0 To put it simply, without adequate protein you would fall apart and be as weak as water and very ill. Break up your intake throughout the day. [Do not eat all at once!] Example: based on 60 grams a day. 20 grams between breakfast and mid AM snack. 20 grams between lunch and mid pm snack 20 grams for dinner.
