The Proof with Simon Hill

CHAPTER

Is 30 Grams of Protein the Optimum?

You need a constant supply of the essential amino acids to keep that cycle running. The 30 grams, the 30 grams doesn't even max protein synthesis and muscle. You don't get as big a response with additional protein, but it probably doesn't plateau until 50 or 55 or 60 grams. So I personally recommend people have 40 grams of protein at breakfast and get 55 at dinner and in lunch can be 20 or whatever you want.
