Why is my protein target higher than other calculators?

Most calculators use the minimum RDA. For women over 40, anabolic resistance makes it harder to maintain muscle. Our calculator uses a 2.0g/kg ratio optimized for metabolic health and muscle preservation.

How does a vegan diet affect protein needs?

Plant proteins are often less bioavailable. Our calculator adds a 10% buffer for vegan diets to ensure you get enough Leucine, the key amino acid for muscle repair.
