I take 40g of protein in addition to my current diet. The type of protein I take is from Whey. The only advantage of taking the Whey suppliment is concentration of the protein without the added deficiencies of eating more meats. I could get 40g from a food source however I don't necessarily want to get everything else that comes from it.

Whey protein is easier to digest and contains higher levels of amino-acids (22 in total I believe) all without the calories and toxins of animal protein foods.

Yes, there are plenty of ways to increase protein from eating naturally from low-fat, non-red meats. Chicken and Fish are excellent choices.


EDIT: The proteins are wasted if you do not give you body a chance to use them. You have to have a good workout program to go by in order to maximize the effectiveness of the added suppliment.

EDIT x2: Fellas, I'm in the field and currently on a shower-run. I would love to continue this convo, but may not get to for another week. I will be coming out of the field 13MAY04 and in the mean-time will try to hook-up with the TacSAT fellas and get a slot for internet connection (its good to be commo =P). Thanks for the debate, everyone has good points.
