The standard method used by nutritionists to estimate our minimum daily protein requirement is:
your weight in pounds x .037 = the grams of protien you should have daily.
In your case: 190 x .037 = 70.3 grams.
Also, do you need help working out wher eto get the protein . There are many sources, you can google it, or email me -
The same as a meat eater. Good sources are beans, nuts, and broccoli
