    Believe it or not, lol, i've been looking all over the place online, and i haven't found any substantial evidence to suggest that getting protein from whole food sources is "better" than getting it from a whey protein powder. I see the same arguments made everywhere. Anybody find any scientific evidence?

    Why protein powder is just dehydrated whey.

    Beef jerky is dehydrated beef.

    I don't see the distinction.

    Leucine in whey is much higher than many other sources.

    Animal protein in general dominates in regards to the leucine they are currently studying. I know layne is going over this info atm
