how many mgs of protein?

[liquidmuscle]

my buddy says that the human body can only digest 30-35grams of protein at a time, i thought it was 50mgs?..

 

[massel]

I had heard 25mg's of protein in a 4hour period.

 

[wnt2bBeast]

so im eating 400+ for no reason?

 

[liquidmuscle]

then i have been killing myself i have been eating 50mgs about every 2-4hrs depending on how busy i am at work

I hope the body absorbs it all, because I usually ingest 50-75mg in one meal or shake.

This is an old theory left over from the 80's which by the way was never proven.
The body can easily digest at least double that and more.

There are many factors which come into play for this question...
Noone can REALLY answer this one accurately...

But for me I take in 40-50 grams per meal atleast 7 times a day

if that were true how do pro bbrs take 500-700 that they say they do, and what about 1.5 grams per pound a 250 lb guy would have to eat 375 grams per day divided by only 35 grams per serving is almost 11 meals a day,no way
thats bull shit!

Take this simplistic approach

Are you gassy throughout the day? If so you are probably taking in too much protein per meal (and not assimilating it adequately, thus producing flatulence)...If no, then try increasing your protein per meal slowly...

Its a decent gauge
