Aim for a consistently high daily protein intake, commonly around 1 gram per pound of body weight per day, with enough protein at each meal to reach roughly 30–50 grams per serving. Many recommendations also emphasize spreading protein across breakfast, lunch, and dinner rather than saving it for one meal. The main goals are to maximize muscle protein synthesis and preserve lean mass while also improving satiety, reducing overeating, and supporting body composition during dieting or recovery.
