i've heard the same thing.  from vitalady, i think. 30 grams of protein in 1 hr is all the body can absorb.
even though i usually type "double protein coffee" on this thread,  I am only using 1 1/2 scoops of champion pure whey stack powder.  1 1/2 scoops = 34 grams of protein. i do this amount in 16 - 20 oz of coffee.
i guess typing "double" is easier than typing "1/12 scoops protein powder coffee"

The amount of protein absorb is somewhat controversial. That being said, I do a double scoop protein shake because, for me, it tastes better than with 1 and 1/2 scoops.

I try to keep my shakes around 30 grams but have them 4 times a day to make sure I'm getting at least 100 grams of good absorbable protein in. Vitalady saw a study pre-Internet that she trusts about the 30 gram business and I trust her.

Noreen, your bites always sound so good. Someday, maybe, I'll be in maintenance mode.

lol  I love staying busy at work but it's hard to take my calcium and iron batches if it's too busy. Rock on, Noreen!
