I would like to open a thread on this and see if we can get as much opinion as possible. Possibly based on scientific evidence or personal proven experience at least.
Is there a limit how much protein the body can absorb in one day for the process of muscle synthesis and recovery together with other bodily function?
The only research I have at hand is one from Lyle Mcdonald cited in Keto Book.
Nutr Rev. 1996 Apr;54(4 Pt 2):S169-75.
Is increased dietary protein necessary or beneficial for individuals with a physically active lifestyle?
Lemon PW1.
In this research it is suggest that 1.8 gram per kg per strength athlete is sufficient.
If I recall L.Mcdonald in his UD2 suggests up to 3grams per kg lean body mass.
I am getting frustrated because I want to set-up my macros for my diet to support my next cycle. And not sure if for protein I need to use a percentage or a fixed amount based on 3g/kg. Based on my caloric requirement if I set-up macros like 50 carbs 30 pro 20 fat I can end up with more protein than needed?
What's your view?
