Whey Protein Grams per serving????
i have a big bottle of prolab/twinlab i mix up the names of pure whey and in 1 serving i lsot the scoop so i just put prob a little more than the actual serving in water or milk but is 22g of this per serving a real little or is it regular cuz needing 1.3 times ur body weight of protein a day taking 22g per serving doesnt help much even if u take it twice, or 3 times a day is this rite?? or is this just a bad brand ???

Well, it's a supplement, so it supplements your regular diet. I'm 200 lbs, so according to your requirement of 1.3 times per day, I'd need 260 grams of protein.
If I take 1 of your servings in the morning, then 1 in the afternoon or evening, and 1 before bed, that gives me 66 grams. Factor in the milk that it was in, or what not. I probably got around 100 grams just from those three servings.
That's 160 grams left.
Now figure in three regular meals. Now I'm way over the 260 grams.
That's what you need to keep in mind, it's easy to forget because you're looking at these bottles and reading contents, but a hamburger or a salad don't have a nutritional summary on them :)
