OMG my nutrition professor said the same thing today........i wanted to scream at her but then again she has had schooling in nutrition and i havent so i shut my mouth.

but her reason for having a low amount of protein ed was cuz some ppl cant handle it well and it puts stress on the kidneys or someshit like that..........but she did say that scientists stressing that more than 3-4 eggs a week is utter bullshit if your active and have enough fiber intake

So low protein makes you cute? I'd rather be rugged and handsome.

60g a day ?

May be for an anorexic teenage girl

certainly not for the average male (or female) BBer

Complete and utter non-sense. Notice how no reasoning at all is given - the author just says that "it won't be absorbed". No sources are cited. The author refers to a "study", but does not tell us anything about it - when it was done, where, by whom, what were the subjects like, etc. That guy is just pulling shit out of his ass. You might as well go to bodbuilding.com and read the articles there - same unsupported bullshit.

I got your references. Click here to be transferred.

The general rule is to get around 15-20% total energy from protein. No more is needed.

Scientific investigation into this matter has now shown us that the amount of protein one requires is dependent upon their body size and work out program.


According to their criteria, I would say most people here would fall into the upper numbers of protein intake (.7 or .8 x BW = grams of protein per day), that is only slightly less than what is usually recommended here, which is 1 gram per pound of BW.

This might work, but what most people follow here has been proven over many years and people here have the bodies to show it.

low protien makes more room for more important nutrients like carbs and fats
