Here is my gripe with insulin and protein absorbtion please add input.

Damn silverbackn, good lookin' out, it does have other minor functions. Insulin also controls the uptake of valine, leucine, and isoleucine by the muscles, which in turn helps to increase the synthesis of muscle proteins (Stryer 773). I'm not sure whether or not this increases the amount of protein you can absorb by any valuable %, but it does increase uptake of at least 3 AA's anyway. As far as I could tell though it doesn't shuttle anything but glucose, those 3 AA's it just helps other processes increase uptake, but still I stand a corrected penguin

Quality response! It does shuttle BCAA's. I'm not sure to what extent it shuttles other AA's. I know once the proteins are broken down into amino acids they are shipped to muscle cells for a little growth and repair. I don't know what the difference is between how much protein you digest and how much protein your body utilizes. It would be interesting to know.

So you guys think It would be safe to try to ingest 100g in a 2hour humalog window.Say 50grams right after shot and another 50g 1 hour from when shot was taken?

That's what I did. Actually I had 60g's of WPI right after the shot, and another 50-60g's of it at the 1hr point. Whether I used all of that or not I don't know, but I grew alright.

You must spread Karma before giving it to penguin again.

See I have these really convenient great tasting PWO orange powder that contains 60grams of carbs and 50g of protein and it is perfect because I already have used them a few times with 15ius and never went hypo from it and it only equals 120grams of carbs wich is less than 10g per iu.I take one shake right after shot and one an hour later and I am good to go with no hypo feeling at all and I get 100 grams of protein in there.

Ok I have heard from quite a few people that basically all you can absorb and use efficiently for muscle building is an average of 50 grams of protein every 3 hours or so,I am fine with this.What I am not fine with is that the same amount of protein is all that the body can absorb while adding insulin,wich makes insulin in this case pretty much useless and absolete if you can absorb the same exact amount while using it as you can naturally.So if I am taking 20 ius of humalog wich spikes at the hour and has an active time of 2 hours all the protein I can use efficiently by my body is 50 grams why would I even bother with it and not just take my shake normal with out using the slin.

Why don't you read other posts?
There is a thread about protein assimmilation that you can still find because it is not that old.
I refuse to waste my time for lazy asses.

Why dont you just STFU and kiss my ass you fucking gimp.I already read that post and wanted some more opinions that were more detailed.I actually posted on that post so before you go pissing on someones parade check wtf your spewing out your little bitch ass piehole.Didnt any1 ever tell you if you have nothing nice to say dont say it at all how in the hell are you helping this post any by posting that bullshit ignorant ass answer.

I concur. This one's about insulin, not only protein absorbtion.
