I asked him where he got that from and he gave me the standard reply "many University studies." So I asked him to name one, which he couldn't. Then a sales assistant stepped in and said GNC had advised them of that. To which I went over and picked up a GNC brand protein powder that advertised 50 grams of protein per serving and asked the idiots if GNC knows you can only utilize 24 grams of protein per serving then why are they selling a product where half of the protein per serving is wasted when consumed. Fools didn't have an answer for that. Told them to ring up my item and I'll be on my way.
