If I were you I'd stick with the 1 g per pound of bw. I've heard all kinds of stuff about much some people consume 1.5, 1.8, 2 or even 3 grams by some pros. Who knows if their really benefitting from all that protein consumption. I dont know that 3g will benefit any more than 1g, just like you said the body can only process so much.
1 gram of protein is a good solid safe rule of thumb. It's OK if you go a little over, maybe 165-200. -
Scroll down and look at the thread in this forum "muscle Myths."
This should answer your question.Comment

i just eat aorund 30-50 grams of protein per day, with eating 6-8 meals a day. I take 3 shakes a day now. Im probably getting 250-300 grams everyday. I weigh 220.
Just eat the right foods bro and ur all set and done. Avoid the bad fats, take some good fats in like nuts, fish and flax oil, etc. Avoid all sugars, candies, ice cream, stuff like that.Comment
