How Much Protein Can Your Body Absorb Per Meal?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2017
- Another one of the ongoing myths in the fitness industry is that your body can only absorb a certain amount of protein per meal. The most popular belief is that you can only absorb 30 grams. And with that belief, people quickly believed that the best way to build muscle and optimize protein absorption is by splitting your meals into smaller portions. Some go as far as splitting it to 10 meals per day. But is all of this splitting necessary? Or is true that your body can only use so much at a time and the rest is pooped out? Let's find out!

@Onur G.
Stay off the steroids, mate. You come off as a fucking rabid loon.
Whatever it takes
Right babe?
Answer: Your body absorbs as much protein as you eat, even if its 250g in one meal
Are you sure bro? I only take 2 meals and 50gm protein per meal
@@mannyblackstar But the excess turns into sugar and consequently into visceral fat, or is used for energy.
250g that's eppic
Thanks
Then u may grow 1kg per 4 days🏃 Astagfirullah❤️
Man I love this guy he puts it so straightforward and easy to understand
Not for me I dont understand English much 🙃

The only protein I need is from Tiege Hanley.
Oh wait, this is PictureFit? Not Alpham?..
damnit.
Ian Cox Served with a side-order of Pete & Pedro
Ian Cox hahahaha how about the 5th watches from jose bruh?
I put tiege hanley in my soda and it became a protein shake.

imagine how complicated our lives would be of all these myths were true
Yes
Mine Is tired of only eating 30 g a meal to waste food don't know if this is a myth
Now I can finally chug down my favorite protein shake without feeling guilty
“Higher MPS with more protein in one setting than dividing it”
Oooh.
“...in elderly women”
Oh...
I remember reading (but for the life of me cannot refind) an article summarising a journal article, where the results suggested that the 30g limit was related to how quickly a protein shake will move through your digestive tract with NO OTHER stomach contents and that time taken was what limited how much could be absorbed. As opposed to eating a steak, which requires more time in the digestive system because it is made of much more complex molecules, and hence you can "absorb more of it" because it will stay in your system a lot longer?
Thanks bro, and here I was always wondering if it were smarter to spread out my protein heavy meals to increase gains. Which is harder when you have a job and busy time schedules
Great one!! Love the debunking myths videos, keep it up!
Will do and thanks!
Most bodybuilders would have nowhere as much muscle if we could only absorb 30g of protein per meal.
thanks for busting this myth. Now I can finally feast in peace without worrying about some absorption limit
Awesome!
@@PictureFit bro is it real? Can I have 50gm of protein in 1 meal?
@@mannyblackstar yes!! Stop fucking overcomplicate everything
@@mannyblackstar You can have 300 in one meal
@@Crusher888 over 9000?
Amazing content mate! Finally someone is putting out proper fitness/nutrition content
4:28 is what you came here for. The first 4 mins is explaining
Jake Rees feel like kissing you.
I love the explaining part, learning something is cool but also understanding the mechanics and reasons behind it... is priceless!
Is your attention span so low you need a time marker on a 5 min video? Anyone can just tell you information. It really should be in your interest to know where they got that information. Preferably the scientific evidence behind it since this is something that can impact or adversely affect your health goals.
Jake Rees i love the explaining part. learning something is cool, but also understanding the active process and reasons behind it......is very amusing.
Carbs have a protein sparing effect, i.e if you have protein in isolation...most of it will be diverted for energy needs, with carbs and fats in the picture they manage the energy dynamics while the amino acids can be relatively free to be used for muscle building. :) The only decent thing I learnt from my biochem nutrition 101.
Also an important fact is protein transport. If you have unbalanced amount of individual proteins (leucine, tyrosine, etc), as found in protein powders, there will be competition for receptors and you may not get a complete protein profile. That's why real food is better, they already have the balanced amounts and competition is not as high.
This is by far the best, most informative channel I've found on the science of getting fit. Not only good job but great job! I definitely subscribed 👍🏻
Awesome, thanks!
Been waiting for this one! Thanks!
Great video! Could you consider doing one about water intake? Really curious about that subject.
Thank you so much this was needed! I'm gonna watch it first!
Great video as always. Keep up the good work.
The more you fatigue, tear and destroy muscle fibres, the more protein your body needs to repair and grow that muscle, thus allowing for more protein absorption and synthesis, so guys train big and lots THEN eat big and lots!!!
Great video Jeff!! As always.
Really good video I've been fighting with people about this . They keep on saying have only 30 grams of protein.
Thank you for listing your sources! I Love this channel.
Always! :)
Everytime i think you will run out of things to talk about, you keep coming up with great videos. Thanks for your effort making this.
Man, I love these no one actually knows answers.
This is great and all, I love the channel, but out of all the things, I have on thing unclear to me... what and how exactly should I exercise. I mean, I know what is good and bad as I've seen every tip from your channel, but what kind of exercises should I do and how shoudl I grouop them and scedule them, throughout my day and my week. I would love to see an animation on that topic. And btw it would be also good if you can explain the difference between exercises about building muscle strenght and building muscle durability. Thank you in advance.
Let me guess: It depends..
This time no
not funny anymore
Eden Mardix While we're being all critical, *: it
Thanks Roval
Its getting pretty old.
Yay! You finally answered my question! Thanks!
This episode sponsored by: Depends.
Nice video as always ! 🙌
What a helpful and informative video!
Excellent keep it up!
Could you do a video on binge eating? Your videos are very concise and informative, if I need quick info I always check here lol
Holy shit, was that an absolute answer?
My favorite natty bro Richard potato said I should consume 3g/lb of protein daily
Best channel ever thank you so much 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Can you do a video on the suffecient protein intake per day? Some say 2g/kg some say 2.2g/kg and even 1g/kg. I've been training for about 8 months now but my gainz are slow so i'd like to know if it's the daily protein intake thats falling short? Thx guy keep going.
This is such a fantastic channel.
Thanks!
This channel deserves more publicity
Thanks!
I love this video , everything is clear now about protein . Thanks
Glad to help!
Awesome video
I think protein synthesis and utilization is way more higher during an intermittent fast. HGH and Testosterone levels peak around 14-20hrs in a fasted state. Insulin levels will be high when a big meal is introduced but a big meal introduced in a fasted state also activates Glucagon.
The reason why Glucagon overrides Insulin is because of the Fat conversion to glucose. The breakdown happens is almost instantaneous. If you compare that to Insulin/Glucoeogenesis that requires approximately 3hrs+ for protein to move from the stomach to the small intestine to the large then to the colon and rectum.
Also having a high protein diet and glucagon utilization is the only way to develop the Type 3 Glycolytic super muscle fiber. Boxers and sprinters are the only athletes thought to have these type of muscle fibers.
Perfectly-timed recommendation
Hey picture fit. I love your vids and I though you should do something about this important topic. Is it safe to consume protein powder? What about other supplements? Recently where I live, in Illinois I heard about a female bodybuilder who had died, and the first blame was the protein powder. Could you please make a video about this in the future? I've been working out and I believe protein powder (whey to be specific) has helped supplement my diet and boost my gains. I'm just worried now. I ONLY take this one type of supplement and don't mix any others. I hope you can find this inspirational and help clear some doubts or reveal the truth if it's safe to consume protein powder. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work!!!
Awesome vid again! Gonna give your other social a follow.
Awesome, thanks!
I really enjoyed the fact that PictureFit did not go, "straight bro science" on this one. He's usually straight to the facts/research and puts out an extremely un-bias opinion. Well done Sir.
Cool stuff , what is your opinion on the What the Health documentary?
You are amazing boss. Love ur guidelines. ;D
Thanks!
I like that everybody who's watching his videos is convinced by his content and not by his impressive physique. 👍
Wdym?
PictureFit you are waayyy more better than Jeff Nepard in explaining things ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you
Great video! Could you do one on BCAA and EAA please?
perhaps do another video on how much you should be aiming for daily? (if you havnt already)
great video my bro, thanks
Already have!
its comprehensive on the top of that you reach IF make this vid so useful especially for me
I was low-key waiting for him to say it depends
"IT DEPENDS ? "
Very much appreciated
I love PictureFit channel 😊👍
love your videos ... pls keep posting !
Will do!
Is there anyway i could deactivate my strength because my strength is cuzing me to feel overwhelmed
Finally a source I trust!
Make a video on Ahwagandha and tribulus whether it increases testo or not
what happens if we train the same muscle everyday get bigger or smaller ???
You should do a video on the Thermogenic effect of food and another on the NEAT ;)
damn good channel man
Could you make a video about exercising for example twice a day? Because I like to exercise in the morning after I woke up, like a short 10 min. workout to start the day. And normally I have football later the day, or after I finish work I do a more intensive workout at home.
I don't know if that is good, but the professional football players exercise more than twice a day and much harder. I know I am not a professional, but I want to push myself as good as I can.
I eat round about 1800 calories a day (male, 19, 177cm, 81 kg, but I was at 78kg before my holidays) and want to eat like 2200 calories on rest days or "reload days". I eat a lot of protein and carbs, but cut on my fats to get the deficit I want (50g of fat a day max.)
That was a lot of information, but maybe you or the community can help me, because I would like to continue working out twice a day for 4-5 days a week. On one day I will have my football match and the others are for rest. I don't want to overtrain.
I am looking forward to here from you guys.
wonderful video...
You should make a video on that famous '21 day fast' (or whatever it was). =)
28 day water fast by TheProGamerJay
Much needed
Thank you, finally!
Can you please do a video that compares exercise plans such as bro splits to other exercise plans like push pull legs?
Fluid Meal (Protein Shake) Maximum of Absorption is reached faster -> "No" breakdown Needed
Opposite: Meat, Fish etc. The Body Needs 2-6h to Break Down the Food
->50-60g or more are No Problem
If You eat all the Food isolated
It
Depends
Hi I have a question how important is the meal/diet the next day after hitting the gym?
Nice video
your videos are so awesome
Thanks!
Cool video info on protein. Makes sense. Train harder and you have to consume more protein to build muscle. Thanks.
I’ve seen a video saying that (for some people) you can eat too much protein so that the stomach can’t break it down, and it passes I to the intestines where bacteria feed on it and convert it into gas. Would that affect protein absorption efficiency?
Hey PictureFit, could you make a video about the effect of cinnamon please? Supposedly increasing insulin sensitivity, reducing cholesterol and so on...
Please make a video on how much protein per day can be absorbed.
Usually it says 2g/kg bodyweight, but I have read studies that claim up to 3,5g/kg to increase mps more
Big fan of your videos! Can you make a video about genetic limitations?
I like that you mention CCK :D
Im taking 1 scoop of protein. Which is probably not enough. I just started working out again after a long time. Im going finish my first whey protein box which probably has another 10 scoops worth in it. Im trying to lose the belly fat which isnt much. Probably 5 to 10 pounds. Should i put 2+ scoops of protein in my shake next time? I dont eat alot of high protein foods. Ill have 3 egg whites 10am and than eat something at 2pm and thats it for the whole day.
Hey you should do a video on how to get lean or shred since you already did on how to build muscle!
Finally he posted
Wtf man,when i have a question about something you upload a video about it the next day.Happened 3 times now lol.Great video man
Haha, awesome. And thanks!
Man oh man do I love this channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey PictureFit, I'm a fan. I've watched all your videos and I like them all. I have been wondering which exercises should I do. I'm 18 recently graduated and I'd like to start fresh! I have no idea what to do at the Gym! Please help, thanks in advance.
King Ayman start with compound excercises. Lots of videos on UA-cam about it
Is fruits good ? How much and when can a person best eat them.
Same question for lactose
PictureFit video is getting deeper and deeper, but people like me can only 'digest' 30g of it.
Ok then so if your training what is the max amount of protein your body can use?
I do exercises every days, how much grams of proteins I need to consume per day if I want my muscle grow up?
U answered my comment)) thanks good info
Thank You!
So we don't have to spread out our meals in a day and just make sure our daily protein intake is at around 2g of protein per kg of bodyweight?
How long should i workout in the gym? People say only from 45-60 minutes.. after that muscles will start breakin down or fatigue..
