It feels like everyone has an opinion on how much protein you should eat these days. One headline says a high protein diet is essential for weight loss and muscle growth. Another warns that too much protein could harm your health. Some plans push daily protein shakes and bars, while others say most people need far less protein than they think. So what’s actually true? How much daily protein intake do healthy adults really need for optimal health, and how does that change if your goal is to lose fat, build muscle, or simply maintain muscle mass? The answer depends on more than internet trends.

Figuring out what to eat shouldn’t feel like a pop quiz. Maybe you cook at home and crave an easy way to know how many calories or macros are in your meals.

There are many types of fasting, and the motivations behind them usually differ. Because of this, the rules can get confusing. Your friend fasts for ketosis, so she's cool with some coconut oil in her coffee in the morning. Your grandmother does the Daniel fast with her church for the new year so she can stick to vegetables and grains and maintain her fast.

When you're new to an eating routine, figuring out how to meal plan in a way that follows the guidelines of the routine, meets your nutritional needs, supports your health goals, and suits your tastes can feel like navigating a minefield.

For the seventh year in a row, the U.S. News and World Report ranked the Mediterranean diet as the most health-promoting eating routine in the world.
