The reports of protein have 9 pages and 73 references in 2010 edition and 14 pages and 119 references in 2015 edition, respectively.
Although upper limit of protein intake is not set in 2010 edition, it’s preferred that protein intake is less than 2.0 g/kg/d in adult.
It is focused on severity of disease in 2015 edition. If protein-energy ratio was greater than 20 % energy, the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, the incidence of cancer, bone loss and the increase of BMI would develop. Then it should be noted that protein-energy ratio should not be more than 20 % energy.
Estimated Average Requirement of indispensable amino acids (essential amino acids) has been described for only adult in 2010 edition and they have been described not only for adult but also for child and infant in 2015 edition, respectively.

The recommended amount is based on the proteins maintain the required amount from nitrogen balance experiment, corrected in the digestibility of daily meal mixed protein, used to calculate the reference value of the Estimated Average Requirement calculation and is calculated the recommended amount by the addition of interindividual variability.
Recommended amount of protein (g/d) is product of Estimated Average Requirement and Recommended amount calculated coefficient. The Estimated Average Requirement is product of Reference value of the Estimated Average Requirement Calculation (g/kg/d) and reference weight (kg). Reference value of the Estimated Average Requirement calculation is obtained by dividing protein maintain the required amount (g/kg/d) by the digestibility.
Recommended amount calculated coefficient is 1.25. The digestibility is 0.9.
Adult
The proteins maintain the required amount of adult, that has been determined from the average of 17 studies examined the nitrogen balance maintenance dose of animal protein, is 0.65 g/kg/d, divided it by the digestibility 0.9, Reference value of the Estimated Average Requirement Calculation is obtained as 0.72 g/kg/d.
Elderly
Estimated Average Requirement of protein of elderly, that have been calculated from the pooled analysis using 144 data nitrogen balance of 60 subjects of five studies, is 0.85 g/kg/d (corrected by the digestibility).
Child
The reference value for calculation of Estimated Average Requirement in child the sum of the required amount of protein maintenance and the amount of protein accumulation. The Estimated Average Requirement is the product of the reference value for calculation of Estimated Average Requirement and reference weight. The recommended amount is the product of the Estimated Average Requirement and recommended amount calculation coefficient 1.25. The required amount of protein maintain is 0.67 g/kg/d.
Estimated Average Requirement and recommended amount of protein about child is following table. Predictive equation following is correct in 2015 edition, although predictive equation of 2010 edition is wrong.

Then I’d like to describe about basis of computation depend on such age groups as adult, child, infant, pregnant and lactation.
Adult
EER in adult is obtained by multiplying BMR, it’s obtained by BMRV multiplied by RW, by physical activity level (PAL). I’d like to describe about PAL at last.
If BMI is less than 30, basal metabolic rate for Japanese is obtained by following equation, the function of age, gender, height and weight.
Child
EER in child is obtained by BMR multiplied by PAL and adding energy storage (ES). PAL in child is obtained by systematic review based on 24 studies in 2010 edition and 35 studies in 2015 edition, respectively.
Infant
EER in infant is obtained by adding total energy expenditure (TEE) to ES. TEE in infant is obtained by regression equation that has only weight as one independent variable according to FAO/WHO/UNU.
TEE in breastfed infant is obtained by following equation.
TEE in formula-fed infant is obtained by following equation.
Energy storage is the additional energy for increasing tissue in growing infant and child. Energy storage is as following table.

Pregnant
EER in pregnant is obtained by following equation. It’s assumed that weight gain at 9 months is 11 kg. Additional energy in pregnant is 50 kcal/d in early gestation, 250 kcal/d in mid gestation and 450 kcal/d in late gestation, respectively.
Lactation
EER in lactation is obtained by following equation. Additional energy in lactation is 350 kcal/d. Energy content of human milk is 663 kcal/L.
Physical Activity Level
Physical activity level (PAL) is an index of physical activity obtained by daily energy consumption divided by BMR. PAL is directly observed by doubly-labeled water method. A hydrogen atom is usually a proton with one atomic weight and an oxgen atom is 16 atomic weight, respectively. Stable isotope of them are deuterium with 2 atomic weight and heavy oxygen with 17 or 18 atomic weight, respectively. Doubly labeled water method is that titrate the ratio of excretion to urine of the heavy oxygen and deuterium. It’s the most accurate method.
Physical activity level in 2015 edition is as following table. The population was divided into 3 groups according to 25 percentile and 75 percentile, sorted in ascending order, I, II and III. The representative value of each groups are 1.50, 1.75 2.00, respectively.

Physical activity level in 2010 edition is as following table.
Physical Activity Level according to age group in 2010 edition (Unisex)
A simple closed curve is a curve which does not intersect itself anywhere. Mathematically, a curve in the plane is defined by the parametric equations where and are single-valued and continuous in an interval . If and , the curve is said to be closed. If and only when (except in the special case where and ), the curve is closed and does not intersect itself and so is a simple closed curve. We shall also assume, unless otherwise stated, that and are piecewise differentiable in .
If a plane region has the property that any closed curve in it can be continuously shrunk to a point without leaving the region, then the region is called simply-connected, otherwise it is called multiply-connected.
As the parameter varies from to , the plane curve is described in a certain sense or direction. For curves in the plane, we arbitrarily describe this direction as positive or negative according as a person traversing the curve in this direction with his head pointing in the positive direction has the region enclosed by the curve always toward his left or right respectively. If we look down upon a simple closed curve in the plane, this amounts to saying that traversal of the curve in the counterclockwise direction is taken as positive while traversal in the clockwise direction is taken as negative.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the minimal energy in awake. The basal metabolism reference value and the predictive equations of National Institute of Health and Nutrition are reliable in Japanese and the predictive equations of Schofield and FAO/WHO/UNU are internationally common, respectively.
Curiously, the result was too small when I assigned weight and height into predictive equation of FAO/WHO/UNU in the age group of 18-29 year-old female. Although I have obtained the original article and reviewed the contents, I could not find the predictive equations. They seem to calculate BMR from Schofield’s predictive equations.
Predictive equations for BMR (upper: male, lower: female)
