Intro

Today, I’m going to reveal 10 surprising foods that are very high in protein?

But first, what is protein?

Protein is a vital nutrient that plays a crucial role in building, repairing, and maintaining tissues in your body. It is made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Consuming an adequate amount of protein ensures that your body has the necessary resources to repair damaged tissues and support growth, especially during periods of development, recovery from illness, or physical training.

RDA

The recommended daily allowance for protein intake in adults is about 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. So, for a 70kg adult (someone who is 154 pounds), this would be approximately 56 grams of protein per day.

It should be noted that there are approximately 26 to 30 grams of protein in ribeye or sirloin steak, a skinless, boneless chicken breast or thigh and a centre cut pork loin or pork chop.
