This question is based on the episodes Protein and Skeletal Muscle: The Keys to Longevity with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Gabrielle Lyon: How to Exercise & Eat for Optimal Health & Longevity, and 864: The Max Amount of Protein You Should Eat Per Meal, How Aging Affects Metabolism & Weight, as well as the clips Protein Consumption Insights and Protein Myths Debunked featuring Peter Attia and Luc van Loon.
I am a third-year dietetics student studying to get my master's and sit for the RD exam, and I am continuing to hear professors suggest that the adequate protein amount is 0.8g/kg of body weight, which is far lower than what you and other professionals have suggested for muscle maintenance, growth, and longevity. Why is this continuing to be taught? How do I find other reliable sources who reinforce the idea that more protein is needed for longevity, muscle maintenance, and growth?
