Chicken breast, and Turkey Breast have the most protein, at 27gr per 3 oz. Beef comes in around 25-26gr per 3 oz. and Filet mignon at 23gr 3 oz.
Fish and seafood has about 7gr of protein per 1 oz. If you eat any soy products, then you are in luck! Soybeans pack 41gr. of protein in 4 oz. Check out some veggie burgers in the supermarkets, I like them and they are a great source of protein with little fat! Around 15% of your diet should consist of protein, and that's not all that much. You get your energy from carbs, and if you eat too much protein, what isnt' used up will go DIRECTLY TO FAT. Good luck! (carbs are used first, protein goes to where your body needs it the most first , cuts, infections etc. )-L
