Question:
How many grams of protein can we absorb in one serving?

I am confused because I have read don't take in more than 15g in a sitting and also 30grams. I don't want to waist it. Does anyone know the answer? Thanks.    — Dot W. (posted on November 3, 1999)

My doctor states between 30-35 grams of protein per serving. I take the designer protein which is 17.5 and double it so I am getting 35 grams per serving. It also depends upon whether you are a proximal, medial or distal. If you are a proximal then you can absorb more than a distal can. My doctor also recommends 120 grams of protein a day for me and I am a medial. 150 grams for a distal. And I believe its a 100 grams for a proximal.
