responds to per-meal protein dose rather than daily total, and plateaus around 30–40 g in most adults. Three to four evenly spaced feedings therefore stimulate more synthesis than the common pattern of a light breakfast and a 70 g protein dinner. This matters most after 50, when 'anabolic resistance' raises the per-meal threshold, and it pairs directly with the 1.6–2.2 g/kg daily protein target.
