PROTEIN...& HOW MUCH DOES YOUR BODY CONSUME IN ONE SITTING???

Hello Nutritionist!
Someone just brought it to my attention that, your body will only absorb 35 grams of protein in one sitting! I make these double scoop protein drinks every morning (46 gr) to get more than 1/2 of my daily allowance in one take!!!  Is there a certain amount that is just wasted if you go over that #????
Please let me know, I'm more than curious! And I think people would love to know the facts.... also, is there some site I can go to to get my daily vitamin requirements? I'd love to know that too!
thanx

Penny, Thanks for posting this question.  I was told this by a presenter at a weight loss  conference that I went to in Colorado Springs and I believe the presenter was an OH one.  I drink two protein drinks a day with about 30 grams each.  Hugs, Sue

Thanks so much Sue for questioning my other post! I never would have thought of this in a million years....
I'm sure other people out there would love to know also!
Don't you just LOVE this site? It is sooooooo informative!!!

This was discussed previously. I am going to give you this link. Check it out & see if that answers all of your questions about protein absorption. As far as vitamins go - I don't know of a site.  There are going to be variations in what supplements you need based on your surgery.  Most on-line resources are only for the usual RDIs. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/nutrition/a,messageboard/a ction,replies/board_id,5389/cat_id,4989/topic_id,3394039/pag e,1/#26434839

Hello Danielle,
Yes, yes yes.....all my questions were answered! Now I can lay this protein biz to rest....
thank-you sooooooo much!
You know, this site has made leaps and bounds and progressing every day..
I was thinking maybe there should be a FACTS & MYTHS PAGE just as a reference for us newbies!!!!
Maybe you could chat it up with your co-workers......
I think it would be much appreciated here and oh so helpful too!
thanx again Danielle (your my new best friend)

Well Penny, I'm glad you posted the question so that you could set me straight.  It is so interesting the amount of mis-information there is out there.    Thanks again, Hugs, Sue
