32、d with a letter.Answer the question by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.How Much Protein Do You Really Need A The marketing is tempting:Get stronger muscles and healthier bodies with minimal effort by adding protein powder to your morning shake or juice drink.Or grab a protein bar
33、at lunch or for a quick snack.Today,you can find protein supplements everywhereonline or at the pharmacy,grocery store or health food store.They come in powders,pills and more than$12 billion in sales this year,the industry is booming and,according to the market research company,Grand View Research,

38、 protein.Each egg gives you 7 grams,the cheese gives you about 6 grams and the orangeabout 2 grams.Add a lunch of chicken,rice and broccoli,and you are already over the recommended 50 grams.“You can get enough protein and meet the RDA before you even get to dinner,”says Pipitone.D So if its so easy
39、to get your protein in food,why add more in the form of powders,snack bars or a boost at your local juice bar No need to,says Pipitone because,in fact,most of us already get enough protein in our diet.“Whole foods are always the best option rather than adding supplements,”she says,noting the FDA doe
