Protein Portions: Is 30 Grams the Limit?

So many people promote as fact that 30 grams of protein is the body's upper limit for utilizing this muscle building macronutrient in one serving - any more and it becomes waste or is converted to fat. Try as I might to research this topic, I have never been able to find conclusive evidence that says yes or no to the 30 gram rule.

Therefore, I promote an individualized approach to protein consumption - because: would a 220lbs male gym bunny require the same amount muscle repairing amino acids as his 115lbs female counterpart? Probably not.

Keeping that in mind, studies have provided guidelines that remain intact through dozens of academic books. For the endurance training athlete (ie runners and such), an intake of 1.2 grams per pound of body weight is recommended; should consume 1.8 grams per pound of body weight. 

From this standard, measure yourself accordingly. For instance, at 210lbs, I am scientifically told to consume 378 grams (210 x 1.8 = 378) of protein a day; split over the course of 6 meals (63 grams/meal) and I have easily doubled the supposed 30 gram standard...

...and my excess protein consumption has NOT converted to fat - just massive surges of intestinal power.
