Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that sports nutrition position statements recommend about 1.4 to 2.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day for physically active adults?

Yes. An International Society of Sports Nutrition position stand states that an overall daily protein intake of 1.4-2.0 g/kg body weight/day is sufficient for most exercising individuals, and a second ISSN position stand cites that same 1.4-2.0 g/kg range.
