Sure is, mix it with some fat to slow down absorption or use a cassein shake. I use cottage cheese mixed with flax oil or nuts

I'd say whatever amount you need to hit Protein Grams = body weight lbs. What I'd do anyway.
Keep an open mind, but not so open that your brain falls out.

Your standard 20 - 30g is fine, so long as your meeting your daily requirements.Originally Posted by ShortnStacked
(Obviously the higher the better - as long as its in water)
