Your body needs protein to function, the exact amount you needs varies based on a number of factors (eg: you need more if you want to build muscle). Don’t believe the “1g” number someone pulled out of their ass, it’s more complicated than that, but your diet should consist primarily of: Proteins, Carbohydrates, and Fats.
