It varies with body mass and physical activity. On average it has been suggested that 30-40g of protein is the maximal amount for a healthy human, averaging out to a daily intake of 150-180g. Other sources claim that no more than an egg sized volume per day. The so little protein can be tolerated as it breaks down in the liver, unable to be stored like fats or carbohydrates. The primary product is Ammonia from deamination. Of this ammonia a proportion is used to synthesise non-essential amino acids for carbohydrate derived carbon skeletons, the rest is detoxified first to Uric acid then Urea. Highly soluble and much less toxic than the other two derivatives, Urea is routinely filtered from the blood by the kidney. The simple truth is that the more protein you eat the more Urea you excrete. Diets like the Atkin's method are dangerous to the kidney as they bombard it with unnatural amounts of Urea and there have been many documented cases of Renal failure.

Is milk good for nutrient bone maintenance?
Milk from your mother when you are a baby is good for your bones. Milk from animals however has been purported not to be good for human bone maintenance. The problem with milk from animals is that they are acid forming in the human body. The body needs protein to build healthy bones. But as your body digests protein, it releases acids into the bloodstream, which the body neutralizes by drawing calcium from the bones. So too much protein from milk or meats is bad for bone maintenance as to balance the acid the human body strips calcium from the bones.
