Was wondering as far as protein requirements,i know we need(for muscle growth)-at least 1.5-2grams per pound,so my question is if for example a persons LBM is 220lbs. he would need about 440grams a day,now splitting it into meals,lets say at least 7 a day it would come out to at least 60grams or more per meal.as far as i know,the body(on average)can digest anywhere between 30-35 maybe 40grams(depends on the individual)of protein per meal.also dont forget the fact that some of the proteins are from foods that takes the body several hours to digest-so can anyone explain that to me?-THANKS.
