Ok. Ive been thinking about this for a while. Ive heard it talked about on here before by a newbie " Can you inject protein", and never gave it much thought. Now that I think about it, what would happen if you did?? I'm pretty sure the protein would have to be soluble in oil. Like, I think if you just took a big scoop of whey and threw it in some sterile oil, I think it would make a big mess with clumping and seperation. I dont think it would dissolve. Would your muscle absorb this?? Or would it just be stuck there and be a big lump? Would your body reject it?? Ive also wondered, Lets say you stuck it in your upper quad. Now, if your muscle could actually absorb this, would the whole muscle absorb it, or would just the INDIVIDUAL fibers in the muscle that it touched absorb it? Or would the whole muscle uptake it? If just the individual fibers that the mixture touched absorbed it, it would be very difficult to get your body looking even. Anyone have any thoughts on this?? Flame away if need be, but I think Ive thought out the specifics of this question to get some decent answers. Any thoughts??? ------------------     | ||

good idea.......but dont think it will happen anytime soon! protein is made up of long chains of amino acids.....and for u to get any decent amount of protein in an injection the mixture would be very very thick.........or about a litre in volume......so unless u fancy intecting the equivalent of wallpaper paste into your body......stick to eating protein....it aint that much hard work.. | ||

Yeah im pretty sure it would be thick. But I dont think it would be any liter of fluid. Im not saying like injecting a serving of whey.Not Like 22 grams of protein ( there isnt that much in there anyway ). Just small amounts. Maybe over the long term it would be beneficial. Isnt alot of protein you intake destroyed or flushed out by digestion? So if the muscle would uptake the injection, this would skip the waste in digestion?? If it works, could you then inject however much you wanted into the muscle and saturate it?? Man, that would be strange, saturate your leg with protein. Anyone else have thoughts?? ------------------ | ||

maybe you could just put a zippered pouch onto your belly and every two hours just throw a whole chicken in there!!!! | ||

Your body cannot use whole protein peptides to build muscle. It has to break the protein you eat into single amino acids which it then uses to build tissue, enzymes, etc. There are no proteases in the blood to break down the long strands of peptides into their respective amino acids. |
