If you are an athlete or bodybuilder(he said means lift 2-3 hrs 5 times a week)
you should get half your weight in protein, no more.

He said too much protein is bad for you, and that increases in protein intake do not make you gain muscle, it turns into fat.

So for a 200 lb man you should only get 100g protein no more

He also said that to much protein can make you go into ketosis.

And that protein drinks and bars are bad for you b/c you do not need them b/c you will get too much protein.
