3. the RDA for total protein is 800 mg/kg/day;
Over here we have 15% of energy intake as protein as a thumb rule. Used in most countries outside US.
In animals, like cat and dogs, diet of less than 10% energy intake means problems because too little cysteine in diet giving to little GSH and taurine production. Adding 0.02% g/g of taurine alleviates the problems. And also rise GSH since then cysteine will not be used for taurine production, but only proteins and GSH. (Cystein dioxygenase is then tuned down or turned off)

I have some problems with recovery after exercise. I wonder if there are some particular amino acids that would be the most helpful. Creatine? Any other tips?
