How much protein to consume

Superpain Posts: 7 Joined: 2003/03/20	2003/03/23, 05:30 PM I know that when excersing the average person should consume 1 gram for every pound....How much protein should be consumed in a serving without wasting any? For ex. a 45 gram protein shake...Will some of the protein go to waste...Thanks

He told me to cut that in half and take 2 separate shakes with 25 grams a piece9(my protein shake calls for 2 scoops) -------------- Pain is weakness leaving the body
