“Consuming 150 grams of protein per day for 30 days will improve muscle growth and fitness outcomes for gym enthusiasts.”

Evidence Summary

Some evidence supports this, but findings are inconsistent or limited in scope.

Higher protein intake can support muscle protein synthesis, but the optimal amount varies by individual factors such as body weight, activity level, and total caloric intake; 150 g may be excessive for many and offers no clear advantage over lower, adequately distributed doses.
