Protein, like carbs, has 4 calories per gram. Your diet should consist of 10 to 35 percent protein, so for a 2,000-calorie diet, you'll need 50 to 175 grams of protein. Requirements of protein vary drastically depending on your activity level. If you work out regularly or are training for an athletic event, you may need the higher end of the recommendation, but if you are relatively sedentary, your protein requirements are lower.
