How Much Protein Should Women Over 30 Eat?

If you're a woman over 30 who wants to build lean muscle, lose body fat, and feel stronger, a great goal is to eat 0.7–1.0 grams of protein per pound of your body weight each day. Preferably try to get 1.0 gram for 1lb of body weight.

For example:

• Weight 130 lb → 90–130 g of protein per day
• Weight 150 lb → 105–150 g of protein per day
• Weight 170 lb → 120–170 g of protein per day
