Thnak you SO much for putting the protein in your products!! I have an egg allergy so trying to get protein into my diet is tough, especially at breakfast. But your cereals not only taste good, but they also don’t get soggy – my husband’s biggest complaint about cereals. I am now trying to lose 45 pounds that I gained from taking prednisone for a lung infection that took 3 years to clear up. Your PROTEIN Calculator was eye opening. My family doctor has been telling me to join Weight Watcher’s to help me lose the weight and figure out the ratio of proteins/carbs/calories in the foods I should be eating, but WW is so expensive! Your simple, free tool showed me that I eat less than HALF the protein that I should be eating…no wonder I am having trouble losing weight!! Thanks for your online help!

I am a diabetic. I also have a diabetic disease (severe diabetic pheriphal neuropathy), that will never go away, it will, in fact, only get worse……It bums me out, alot, but I keep going..It is extremely hard to pay for my food. I am at a zero, inmcome, awaiting, disability. You calculated that, I need, 78 Grams of protein…Wow! I, can’t afford that!!

This is ridiculous. 86g is just over 3 ounces of protein per day. I eat more than that at each meal. My brain wouldn’t function if I reduced my protein intake to that level.

Yes I have purchased Kashi cereals and really do like them. They are very tasty and have NO sugar. For my protein calculation my height is not being accepted. Could you help? Thanks for your site.

Protein is the first ingredient I look for in a product.

Eating healthy and continue with weight loss.

Why can we no longer buy this in texas?

Seriously? 75 grams of protein?! That what the Kashi protein calculator calculated as my recommended daily protein intake. Kashi people, is there an error in your calculator? I am a 48 year old female, 5’5", 119 lbs, fit with good muscle tone, extremely healthy,energetic,and vegan. There is no way I come close to that intake. On some days I probably don’t even make the CDC recommended intake. CDC recommends 46 grams for adult women and comments that most people intake an excess of protein. Here the link:

Another note to Kashi people, I used to love Kashi original until I went totally vegan (its got honey). It looks like the Kashi cinnamon crumble and berry crumble might be vegan, but its not readily available everywhere. Just saying I wish they were as easy to find as the original.

I would just like to say that the product,s that i have been injesting seem to give me a better over all feeling within myself ,like the saying goes you are what you eat!!by-tim-moore.

Seems like a lot! Good to know.

wow i really should be having alot more protein than i usually av on a daily basis.

Love the original. The lower sugar helps as well as the super high fiber and protein. An ideal cereal.

Thanks. This was very helpful and great.

Glad I checked this. Just found out I only eat about half the protein I should be eating.

I’m skinny, so I get filled-up fast. I add some protein power to my GoLean Orig. Added this page to favorites. Thank you!

I will consider this a tool to sucessfully meet my weight loss and gain lean muscle goals. However, the average adult daily requirement is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. Using this formula will give me the amount of protein for an average adult. The average adult in the USA is sedentary, therefore would use this formula. For someone who is attempting to gain lean muscle mass and is exercising at least 4 to 6 times per week will need more than the average amount of protein for their individual needs. If you want to be sure check with a professional.

Love the food ideas and being a 13 year old vegetarian I need my protein!! :)

very useful!!

Wow, this was really an eye opener to how much protien I really need; and I love the food ideas!

Before you put anything into your body remember to eat Protein First, Veggies Second, Fruit Third and everything else is dead last.

Protein also helps to help preserve your lean muscle mass while you’re dieting. Protein isn’t just to build muscle, but preserve what yo do have.

Wow, that’s eye-opening. I had no idea I would need that much protein! I love that the calculator suggests Kashi foods, and other foods as well for a rounded day of eating!

Kashi cereal with a few spoons of ground flax, chopped walnuts and almonds, and milk is a good protein start for the day!!
