ive seen from some articles stating that it is wise to keep our protein intake for a maximum of 40 grams per meal as this is the limit the body can process the protein efficiently..... but wad if i wanna bulk up my size??? i think this isnt enough to fulfill my needs....

How big are you? That's 240 g a day.

Of course, I'm assuming you're eating 6 times a day. You obviously must be since you're bulking, right?

This type of arbitory figure for protein absorption is rediculous - it depends on so many things - your lean mass, your age, your gender, your activity level, your hormone levels, your physiological state, your intestines, what else you ate that meal....

Do you really think a 98 pound female can digest and utlise the same amount of protein as a 220 pound juiced male?
