A member asked:

How much tofu a day is too much? would it be detrimental to my health to eat 400-800g a day?

Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Healthy Diets: A healthy diet for a man is to have 1800 to 2200 calories per day. These calories should consist of 60% proteins, 25% carbs (complex better than simple) and 15% fats. You can do the math but your tofu figure seems extreme.

My health app tells me to eat 500 fewer calories per day in order to lose at least 1 lb. per week. I incorporate cardio into my routine throughout the week, but why is 500 the magic number? The app starts out at 2100 calories. Why is 500 significant?
