We’ll give you a personalized protein recommendation to help you reach your goals. Rest assured, your information stays private, so you can focus on what matters: fueling your body the right way!
How Much Protein Do You Need Daily?
Your daily protein needs hinge on your weight, activity level, and fitness goals. For example, an athlete at 185 lbs needs more protein than one at 135 lbs, highlighting the importance of calculating your protein intake by body weight. If you’re looking to build muscle, you’ll need to up your intake for optimal recovery and growth.
Remember, your body can’t store protein, so timing matters! Spread your protein consumption throughout the day for best results. Use our personalized protein calculator to determine exactly how much you need.

Here’s a pro tip:
What High-Protein Foods Should You Eat?
Let’s be real, whole food sources for protein, such as meats, eggs, and nuts are the best sources. If you prefer plant-based options, consider legumes, lentils, and seeds. Your choice should align with your dietary preferences and restrictions.
At OrganiiLand, our grass-fed whey comes from cows living their best lives, roaming lush pastures and grazing freely on wild grasses and clover. These happy cows produce milk that is rich in omega-3s, CLA, vitamins A and E, essential minerals, plus essential amino acids, particularly leucine, which is crucial for muscle growth and repair. Both of OrganiiLand’s Collagen Protein & Grass-Fed Whey Protein contain a complete amino acid profile, ensuring you have enough leucine to recover post workout.

Will Protein Make Me Bulk Up?
Many people mistakenly believe that protein alone will lead to bulking. In reality, protein is essential for muscle recovery and getting you back to training, but it doesn’t cause bulking on its own. The muscle mass you develop depends primarily on your training regimen and overall diet. However, the blend we have of grass-fed whey and adaptogenic mushrooms helps your body to manage stress, enhance endurance, and support recovery. They regulate cortisol levels, boost energy, and improve focus, which enables you to train harder and recover faster.
