Protein is essential for re-building and building muscle, but health experts warn eating too much can pose health risks.
The current Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.
Endurance or strength athletes are recommended to take in 1.2 to 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight each day.
Consuming too much protein — over 2 grams per kilogram of body weight per day comes with risks, notes Rose-Flores, including kidney dysfunction, unwanted weight gain, and increased risk for osteoporosis, and azotemia.
