A common myth about protein is that a diet that is high in protein can have negative health effects, like kidney damage or bone loss. Eating a diet higher in protein can support a healthy metabolism and plays an important role in muscle maintenance and preventing chronic diseases. Research shows that eating 2530 grams of protein at each meal is an idea for optimal body benefits.
