Dr. Fung says, "moderate" protein these days. Well, how much is that? I don't like figuring out macros.
There is a calculator for that. A rule of thumb is: if carbs go down make up with protein. I aim for 88g / day -- more and I feel a little dried out.

Also the source seems to have more impact, especially as you age. I swear by Body Fortress Whey Protein powder shakes made with 50% or less cream. Or just 1/4 - 1/2 cup powder whipped with very cold cream to make like an chocolate ice cream.
