I cant see why that would be the case,if so why would the drs. Tell us to get 40-60 grams per day?

[enigmachik 403]

She means in one sitting. You can still get way more than that per day, you just have to break it up. Get 20 grams now, 20 more grams in a few hours, 20 more grams a few hours after that etc...

I asked my nutritionist and this is a myth. If you eat the right types of Protein, your body will breakdown and absorb all of it.
