Free tool · GLP-1 protein

Your daily protein on a GLP-1, worked out.

Enter your weight and get the daily protein range the 2025 GLP-1 nutrition advisory gives for weight loss.

Your weight

Range: 1.2–1.6 g per kg of body weight a day, from the 2025 joint advisory on nutrition for GLP-1 therapy.1 A 49-study analysis found no extra muscle gain from protein past about 1.6 g/kg.2 The sports-nutrition society starts its range higher, at 1.4,3 so we show where both agree.

Why it matters

Protein is one half. Strength training is the other.

The same advisory pairs protein with strength training at least 3 times a week, to help hold on to muscle while the weight comes off.1

Take this calculator. It is yours.

If you are a dietitian, a clinic, a gym or a trainer and this would help the people you look after, put it straight on your page. No account, no key, no charge, and nothing you or they enter is stored or sent anywhere. All we ask is that the credit line stays on it.

Works on any site. It resizes to the space you give it, and on a phone it drops to one column. If you would rather have it a different height or want one of the other free tools embedded, email Brad and he will sort it.
