Well, what problems would you actually see if you were not digesting your protein completely? I would imagine gas being one sign, but I can't say for sure.
I would also imagine the person's metabolic type would play a large role here. Someone that's made to eat lots of carbs (a carb type) probably would have a harder time eating huge amounts of protein than a protein metbolic type would. I've eaten 500+g of protein and over 600g of fat as well with no problems. I would imagine this could potentially overload a carb type's digestive system.
But either way...that's a lot of protein to eat

That would seem to indicate a severe lack of protein digestion if it's that gross
But I would imagine that before that threshold you aren't totally digesting your protein. The more subtle such as gas, perhaps, might be an indicator that your digestion isn't going well.
I do wonder how the percentage of protein digested changes as you increase the number. It might be something like 200g 99%, 300g 95%, 400g 90%, 500g 80%, 600g 75%. I'm just guessing, though. Any thoughts on that?
