protein absorption

[krupt]

how much protein can a person absorb in a hour or like during one meal ?

 

[cubanojoe]

would that not depend on your muscle size and insulin level?

 

[Bruce Banner]

All of it.

Everything is absorbed.

oh really i thought your body could only absorb like 30 or so an hour.. sheesh now i guess ill start to taking a few scoops of protein powder each serving rather then just one.

And how does your meals look like?

 

[mike@tpcanada]

Your body will also require more protein the more demand you place on it.

Your body can't just pass the protein without digesting it unless you wrap it in a plastic bag first or have some severe problems. Don't worry too much about it.

I think what he's asking is how much can be assimilated for muscle growth... Then I think it goes back to cubanjoes answer. Amount of muscle and many different hormonal factors.

I have found that the more protein I eat, The better my gains are. I try to eat/drink as much protein as I can each day

I loose at least some calories through the tailpipe in the form of a dangerous gas.
