Depends on how big you are

>supplement
>necessary
in your case finishing primary school is necessary

>>38921987
not at all if you have a proper diet. i get about 190g with just food.

it makes gaining easier if you're not the kind of person who wants to have 6 meals a day

Not.. shit is bad for digestion. You lose more nutrients than it's worth
>Eat 6 egg whites
>A cup of nuts
>Chipotle burrito with tofu
>Fish and sweet potatoe
>rice and chicken
>Protein pack steamed veggies
There's an easy guideline
You'll be better off

If i consumed that much protein i would spray some serious diarrhea. Do you eat probiotic yogurt?

Not him, but I also get about 200g with just food and my stools are solid. The protein sources are whole eggs, milk, oatz, breast chicken, lean meat, beans, brown rice and turkey sausages. Every meal has between 25 and 35 grams of protein in them, and I fill every one of them with some sort of vegetable/fruit. You get enough fiber from the rice and the veggies and since you're not eating prepackaged stuff (well, you shouldn't) your shit should be good

Also water
The only thing that made me feel bloated and made my stool loose was GOMAD. I only take a cup of milk a day now.

It's a supplement, overall it's just a very convenient way of getting ~25g of protein without filling yourself too much

I have a can of the cheapest shit for when im in a hurry or wanna down a milkshake (milk, whey, banana). 1 pot lasts me months. I dont really like the way i digest it tho, so i dont think ill buy another one.

Lots of fibrous vegetables and at least a gallon of water a day. My poop is thick, solid, tight.

This. I have two meals a day and then my protein shake plus protein bar when I'm cutting.

If you're anabolic then kinda. Otherwise you can easily get .6 - .8 g / lb of bodyweight from real food
