30-30-30

Get 30 grams of high-quality protein, 3 times each day. Scientific studies have shown that getting 30 grams of high-quality protein, 3 times per day gives you all the necessary amino acids, in the right proportions for maintaining and building lean muscle. Lean muscle supports a healthy metabolism.
