I've hear that you can only take in 40-50g of protein in one meal before, but are there any studies to back this up? Also, if this is true, how long after you eat does it take to reload? 1 hr, 2hrs?

Yes, there are stories to back it up, but the studies are inconclusive in my opinion, meaning that they are usually not performed on athletes or bodybuilders who need extra protein. I have found that by taking about 25 grams of protein about every 2 hours is good for gains.
