Protein in a good thing.

Btw here's some science on why more protein almost always is better.
.
The recommended minimum protein intake is 0.8 grams per kg of bodyweight per day (1 kg = 2.2 pounds), but this is to prevent a deficit and is not the amount for optimal athletic results.
.
The average person in Sweden (where we live) consumes about 1.1 g/kg/day. Athletes, however, need more for optimal results. Findings vary, but studies generally show that benefits plateau after about 1.8 g/kg/day!
.
So a person weighing 75 kg needs no more than 135 g per day. Observe that is assumes that you have eat adequate calories in your diet (enough carbohydrates and fat). For endurance athletes, optimal levels are around 1.6 g/protein/day and for strength-oriented athletes up towards 2.0 g/kg/day may be needed.
.
When in a caloric deficit, you should also be at the higher end of this range (2.2 g/kg/day) to preserve as much muscle as possible when cutting.

The high protein is always good, to gain muscle, to burn fat, to reduce appetite.
