"One popular myth is that only
30 g/hr of protein can be absorbed. Although this is commonly
found in both lay and some professional literature,
there is no scientific basis for this claim. It is possible that,
from a volume standpoint, patients might only realistically
consume 30 g/meal of protein during the first year."
