The best thing about this protein craze is almost everyone gets enough anyways and the body excretes excess protein so the cheapest and easiest way to get extra protein is to drink a gymbro's piss.
Its sterile and I like the taste.
I know this is all jokes, but just to stop the perpetual piss is sterile thing, it's absolutely not sterile
Somehow bladder infections are a thing and people think your piss pouch can be simultaneously infected and sterile.
Yeah, a lot of people suffer from bladder infections. Would increase their life quality if it was indeed sterile.
Do people actually believe that?
Yup. I've heard people say this growing up. I also saw it on tv on a medical show. The doctor was operating on someone and pissed and when people looked at him in shock. He just said "What? It's sterile. It's just pee." Or some shit like that.
People will believe anything if you repeat it long enough.
Yeah probably
That's because almost everyone eats too much (bad) stuff.
If you are on a cut, you have to select your food wisely in order to get enough protein while still maintaining the cut.
Also, it is wiser to eat too much protein than limit your gains due to a shortage in protein. Imagine working out and not getting the additional reward for the additional set because you eat too little protein.
That’s why you should drink the piss bro.
I know you're joking but urine should not contain any protein in a healthy body.
So you choose option #2? 😂
I did the math recently and I think that in order to hit what the WHO considers the minimum safe protein for my weight, I would have to eat WAY more, like twice what I typically do.
This may be a vegan-specific problem.
It's not a vegan problem. It's a food selection problem.
I'm vegan and I eat plenty of protein. More than most non vegans
It's a vegan problem in that it can be a problem for vegans, not that it's a problem for all vegans.
Sure. It can be a problem for anyone, including vegans. Vegan does not save you from bad food choices
Beans and lentils are your friend.
If you’re older this is not true. Near all of the older people i know need protein supplemented.
This is so disingenuous, technically yes we do our bodies automatically shit off the cravings when we get enough.
but that protein is in such low concentration in the food we eat that we are forced to eat 15X the carbs we eat to get the proper protein.
that's why McDonald's with their nipple sized beef works so well it gives you just enough protein to make you think it is healthy and you have to order 15X the amount you need.
if you eat something with higher concentration of protein you won't need the extra carbs your brain doesn't know to stop eating not to mention the transfat and sodium and no fiber that comes with the bread.
Not to say this bar is that, it looks like it's loaded with sugar aswell but proper protein powder is not.
Come on drink the piss bro.
That's another thing the Gym bros absolutely should be eating the protein, even in excess.
when your body is growing muscle it needs to know it has a readily available supply of protein, the body won't grow muscle if it thinks it cannot get enough resources to grow it.
and the extra protein isn't simply pissed out it is burned for energy, the exact type of energy you need for lifting weights unlike carbs that take time to digest and build muscle while you sleep the extra protein goes into the energy you need for lifting the weights.
You make a surprisingly salient point, sir
My doc says I need to build muscle mass to fix my shoulder and protein helps so I'm one of the few who needs it and I don't really buy into the craze.
I know you think you're trying to make piss-drinking happen, but it's not going to happen.
I’ve read this stated before and I don’t see how it’s true.
There is literature supporting this should be your ideal body weight rather then total weight for obese people (i.e. based on your non-fat mass)
A complicating factor is the guidelines are calibrated for people eating poorly digested non-complete proteins, must labels for protein are based on crude protein - a rough nitrogen estimate, not actual amino acid measurements. If your eating 100g of beef protein vs 100g of wheat protein you are getting very different levels of meaningful protein.
Only the nitrogen is excreted. The body converts the rest into glucose then fat. So the excess protein in everything is literally making us fatter and more unhealthy!
Protein itself doesn't spike insulin significantly, making it very difficult to gain fat on protein alone. A protein only meal wont drive weight gain. 1 - it's very satiating so its hard to over eat (especially if the protein is combined with fat i.e. a fatty cut of meat). 2 - Even huge boluses of protein when people force feeding themselves don't spike glucose.
What is driving weight gain is many people are consuming excessive amounts of carbohydrates, which spike insulin for 2-4 hours, which puts the fat cells in storage only mode. If someone is eating carb heavy proteins to hit their RDA, yes they will gain weight, but that isn't the fault of protein.
Update: as a illustration of this, its known that if someone only eats lean meat exclusively they will die, this is called rabbit starvation, documented all the way back to the Roman Spanish campaigns. What they don't do is get fat!
