You’ll also find a lot of people who say to eat 1g protein/lb body weight or at least of LBM.

No doubt. But the numbers are all over the place. I have seen .6/lb to way more. It depends on the study and there is a lot more to it. Like how much can you really absorb at one time.

You presented it as a dietary fact. He should be eating 200g of protein a day, just like he should be drinking so much water. Its not that way. It's a good hack, if he can manage it, plus afford it.

You can eat whatever you want. I hope you are eating other stuff too.
