Is it ok to eat 96 grams protein at once?

Do not exceed 6 500 mg tabs a day. Watch the potency on bromelain too. I wouldn't exceed 3000 GDU's a day.

Wouldn't you think that the whole your body can only absorb so much protein in one sitting apply only to shakes? If your eating solid chicken as protein I would think its getting slowly broken down and absorbed throughout digestion process, so its not exactly "in one sitting".

Good point, hopefully thats true.

I literally just finished 16oz of ground beef covered with a cup of shredded sharp cheddar and 4 slices of toasted whole wheat bread. Finished about 30 mintes ago. I'm already getting hunger pains. I think your fine bro.
Again it depends on your size and how used to it you are. After a week or so you will get acustom to it. As long as you are eating 6-8 meals a day and not a couple big ones.

Im not big 5'10" 185, just trying to get used to eating a lot of protein so when I cycle the habits are already there.

No, I heard only 30 grams goes down. But you can check from a nutrition expert after getting your blood tested and stuff. They usually check your metabolism, etc and you'd get the best answer.
everyone's different.

Not true. If so i would have to eat 10 meals a day and still only get 300 grams.
I shoot for no less than 60 grams per sitting. I have up to 100 post workout. But I am also 270 lbs and used to eating alot. I had aroound 16oz of chicken 2 hours ago and I feel like I am starving to death right now.

Here's the thing.

Hunger pains just means your stomach has finished breaking down the food and moving it to the next step of digestion process. Its in the intestines that the majority of the absorption occurs. So lets say your meal above had 100g of protein total.

In the stomach the acids and digestive juices break this down into a more usable form (this is where the bromelain is most useful)

Next the food moves to the intestines where your body starts to absorb all the nutrients that it broke down. You body isn't going to absorb everything which is why most researchers guess 40g-60g of protein per meal. So of that 100g you might only absorb 55g or 60g, it will vary per meal

I keep most of my meals between 25g-40g protein and almost never go over 60g.

I've done high protein before (taking in over 60g per meal) and for the most part my ass smell like rotten eggs when doing so. Taking in smaller quantities of protein more frequently I have zero to no gas and the gas I do have smells nothing like rotten sulfurous eggs; its more like broccoli cause I eat a ton of broccoli.

The extra macro's, not just protein, will just be shit out.

I blame the gas on the eggs bro. I eat a ton of broccoli but if I don't have eggs that day the gas aint bad. If I do...well then the kids run away from me.

I dont eat eggs or vegtables. I also dont get rotten egg gas. I do know what your talking about. But I dont get it from large food amounts.
