doesnt work that away. that came from the fact that muscle protein synthesis is maxed at 30g protein. but what happens is your body slows absorption after that


When getting my undergrad I always got into heated debates about this with some of my professors. I've always thought it was garbage thinking and recently more studies have come out proving I was right. But the argument I used that would constantly win was people who ate One Meal A Day (OMAD). According to their idea a person doing OMAD couldn't possibly intake enough protein to be healthy. And even early man used to have to go days without eating.

Yeah I dont buy the max protein metabolism in one meal thing. It has never made sense to me.

In your argument, are you saying that you don’t buy that this part tells the whole story:
quote:

the fact that muscle protein synthesis is maxed at 30g protein.


And that this part explains why it’s ok and won’t yield diminished results to eat, say, 80g in a sitting as opposed to 80g spread out?:
quote:

but what happens is your body slows absorption after that and your body keeps mps high longer.


My problem is more if I eat >50g in a sitting, I’ve got the runs within the hour. Does that mean I’m not getting the whole payload of the protein I consumed in that meal?
