I know it varies each individual.
Somebody says it's only 30g.
But I saw the video Paul Dilet eating about 110g of protein at one time.

It's not 30g. That number was created out of thin air. There is some old story about it dealing with Muscle Media, I think.

I think that since it varies from person to person it is hard to put a number on it. Things like body size, gender, metabolism, and physical condition probably play roles in the body adsorbing protein. I have read different ranges from 30grams to 50 grams.

Protein cycling will also affect protein synthesis.

Proteins have a different absorbtion rate depending on what it is....there is good info about this on ProteinFactory.com.

We were just talking about this subject on the Womens' board.
