epc317 13 Posted August 30, 2013 My NUT requires 70-90 grams per day. (I shoot for at least 80) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michbrecc 31 Posted August 30, 2013 It depends on hight and weight, I am 5'3 and 180 now, and they told me 60-80 daily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lsu2868 708 Posted August 30, 2013 Minimum 60 grams, but 75 to 85 is better. There are alot of ways to help get it while on the road. Protein Bars and shakes as well as things like turkey and tuna...lots of Protein in those. Good luck on your surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
