etween meals, animals have NO place to store the amino acids from digested protein EXCEPT as lean tissue. The body attempts to store every bit of protein that it can with or without exercise. The tissue is primarily muscle BUT it is temporary and does not affect strength. USUALLY, it is retrieved and burned while one awaits the next meal.
Not all protein can be stored. Even “complete” proteins have different amino acid proportions from that lean tissue and some fraction cannot be stored. The amino acids do not circulate for long. The liver collects them and converts them into glucose.
The construction rate is limited. If a digested protein releases amino acids more rapidly than tissue can utilize them, the overflow also becomes glucose. That is why protein supplements have been found ineffective when consumed as a snack rather than as part of a real meal.
I recently worked the numbers. The average adult male is 80 kg and requires 64 grams of protein per day. The “bro-talk” would say that is not enough protein but even the optimistic gain of two pounds per week would utilize only 38% of that protein.

Some supplements fail regardless. Whey starts out liquid and rapidly exits the stomach. It can traverse the small intestine within minutes depending on one’s hydration level. Italian research found that the first 15 grams could temporarily saturate the absorptive capacity of the small intestine with larger servings lost by overflowing into the large intestine. Since that does not get digested, one cannot even call it “excess”.
The body CAN utilize the glucose. The actual calories in muscle are only 10%–20% of the energy required to construct that muscle. The construction energy MUST come from glucose.

Glucose from elsewhere in the diet is responsible for accumulating body fat BUT NEITHER AMINO ACIDS NOR GLUCOSE ARE CONVERTED INTO FAT.
Except for fructose which MUST be converted into fat, humans are very poor at converting other nutrients into fat, especially compared to pigs. That is why we feed THEM carbs. Humans actually increase their metabolic rate in response to glucose to burn it rather than trying to store it.

The real issue is that the insulin required to metabolize glucose blocks the release of HGH from the pituitary. HGH triggers the retrieval of fat from storage for burning. Glucose does not become fat BUT inhibits the burning of existing fat even if one has just consumed it in the same meal.

∙ 12y agoThe body can generally only digest about 50 grams of protein per meal (this of course can vary from person to person, but you should not ingest more than 50 g at one time). Note that "meal" does include any protein shakes or supplements you may also take. How long it takes the body to process the protein depends on the type of protein, the form it is ingested in (shakes are absorbed much faster than food), and the individual. Excess protein will be passed through the body as waste. This could give you a bad case of diarrhea, bloating, gas, and cramping. If you are otherwise healthy, you should not see any really toxic effects other than these relatively mild side effects. However, if you are obese, elderly, or have kidney problems or Diabetes, you could seriously damage your kidneys. The kidneys work to process protein, so any protein secreted in urine is a sign that you need a trip to the doctor immediately. If you already have kidney problems, excessive protein could make the problems much worse. It is very important to drink PLENTY of water when you are ingesting high amounts of protein, even if the amount is considered a healthy amount.

∙ 9y agoExcess protein is converted to fat. This fat is stored in the adipose tissues and can be used by the body during lean times.

What it protein denaturtion?
Protein denaturation is by rendering the protein rancid. This process is by oxidation or by excessive heat. Denatured proteins are unhealthy to the body.
Have excess of protein in your body which food should you avoid eating?
Generally excessive protein levels are not due to diet.
What is the minimum daily amount of dietary carbohydrate necessary to spare body protein from excessive breakdown?
50g to 100g
What is Over production and processing of chosen protein?
Large proteins can sometimes cause overproduction top occur in the body. While protein processing is important for muscle repair, excessive amounts can be hard on the body.
Does protein powder cause any harm to the body?
No, it is not harmful unless you consume excessive amounts for years. That is assuming it is not tainted with something that can damage the liver or kidneys.Overall, protein powder is safe and works in the body like food.
Minimum daily amount of dietary carbohydrate necessary to spare body protein from excessive breakdown?
15-50 grams per day limits the body's need to break down protein and will allow protein requirements to be set lower than a diet providing essentially zero carbohydrates per day.
How is excessive protein stored in the anabolic pathway?
Fat
What is the bad effect of protein?
Excessive protein can damage the kidneys, which can only handle certain amounts of protein in the blood that they filter.
What does too much vaginal protein mean?
My daughter was given a prescription because she has excessive vaginal protein. What does this mean
Yeast smelling urine?
If your urine smells like yeast, you have an excessive amount of protein and sugar in your body. You should reduce your sugar intake and this smell will likely go away.
Why do the body need protein synthesis while the body is also synthesis protein?
why does the body need protein synthesis while the also synthesis protein?
Does protein make a child grow taller?
No. While a protein deficiency could stunt growth, excessive protein will not cause beyond normal increases in height.
