I think 0.8g per kg is just fine. The big issue with American diet is too much sugar, not enough fiber, from eating highly processed foods.

- Kirby64 3y agoWhat does fiber have to do with protein intake? They're essentially unrelated, besides fiber and protein both being high satiety (fiber being essentially infinite satiety to calories).
- bratwurst3000 3y agoBetter retention of protein so also a better resorption.
- Kirby64 3y agoWhat do you mean? Pretty much all calories are readily absorbed outside of extreme levels of excess.
- Synaesthesia 3y agoNothing, but there is no RDA for fiber, and the FDA also doesn't say that people shouldn't have too much sugar/refined starch, which they really should.
