For red meat about 5-6gms per ounce, so about 80-96gms per pound. Chicken is around 6gms per ounce. Yes, the protein make I believe is a little different. Let's face it they are different animals and different muscle structure. IP: Logged |

It's going to vary, of course. Chesty's answers are, in general, in the ballpark, but you need to remember this: Diffrent foods have different protein "bio-availablity" which is just a big word for how much you can absorb. You wil generally absorb more from chicken than red meat, and even more from most fish....some fish over 90% Matt IP: Logged |
