Ok, I know someone has to know the answer to this.
Today, after work, on my way to the gym, I stopped by the Vitamin World store out where I work (outlet mall eww!). I was pricing their Designer Whey, as well as muscle-tech bars.
While looking at the bars, I told the lady how, IF I got the bars, I'd have to get the 35g protein bars, instead of the 25g bars. She told me that it's pointless to get more b/c your body can only absorb 25g at a time, and that it's a big scam that all these companies are playing on everyone. Especially myoplex she said. She said all these companies tell you "our shakes/bars have 40g protein per serving" etc. and that since your body can't deal with that much protein, you're basically just wasting your money. Now, as of now, I'm not really believing her, why?
1. Because she's fat. And why would I listen to someone who is out of shape? That's my first rule as far as training and anything of the sort go. Don't listen to people who aren't someone physically active!
2. She's ugly. And ugly people want to prevent us good-looking people from looking even better. Rat Bastards!
3. Money. Maybe she's motivated by it. Maybe she gets commission on the otehr bars or the Vitamin World product which only has 17g per serving.
But, I feel "better safe than sorry". So I'm asking you all...is there ANY truth to this!?!?!?! God I hope not! Thanks!
