我先去看了第 25 章，看到下面一句，学习了。顺便吐槽下，现在网络上好多营养、健身方面的文章，不管中文的、英文的，连卡、千卡都搞不清楚，好多文章里的“卡”其实表达的是“千卡”，当然，万恶之源是未统一的单位制，尤其是美帝的，有机会我专门发文吐槽下。

Because proteins are so important, many people have a misconception about the amount of protein necessary in the diet. The amount is actually quite small (about 50 grams/day) and can be obtained easily. A hamburger, a half chicken breast, or a fish sandwich contains the daily amount of protein needed by most people.
