But in actuality your body uses it but it takes some time for it to be absorbed.

I see that everyone keeps recommending protein shakes as a supplement. I have read a lot about them but have never really incorported them into my diet.

I may start to seriously try them on regular basis now as a way to get a good meal replaement along with my 4 other meals during the day.
Kepp up the good work there man.

I kinda believed him because he is totally ripped. I guess ill keep this my secret.

I had this exact conversation with my bio chemist friend. I was worried that I was eating too much or not enought and he was telling to simply eat more of it since it takes longer to process. And if your body doesn’t requuire whatever is left at the end of the day, it disgards it

I’ve tried so much (crap) out there and found the sugars are mostly responsible for that. However once I made the switch to a quality protein as I mentioned. Gas is pretty much gone. I also take a quality probiotic which is fantastic for digestion and relaxes gas when eating mixes IE: veggies beans etc. Hope that helps bro.

Is that about as much as your body can absorb in an hour? If so, then you would never need to eat more than 240g of protein a day. Would you agree with that?

Or try a different type of protein powder-egg whites for example

Check your whey and see what the ingredients for the protein are.

Whey isolate doesn’t give me any gas. Examples I’ve had good experiences with are IsoPure or Cytosport Whey Isolate (https://www.cytosport.com/products/specialized/whey-isolate).

Eggs, milk, beans, etc, obviously can increase that, but you might know that already!

With regards to GLAD, why even bother eating 6 times a day if the effect of eating 4 times will still be the same?
