you can get the same amount of protein from eating 3 eggs, and it's way cheaper that way.
>>
>>77020371
Speed of uptake it digest rapidly and u get the Amino acids asap
It's not about anabolic windows necessarily it's about a rapid hit when you need it most rather than a slow drip
>>
>>77020376
There is also the convenience. The consistency. Probably cost too, and I know they got expensive I haven't don't the numbers but per gram of protein it's gotta be way more affordable them eating an equivalent of eggs or beef
>>
>>77020371
They're scared of fat in eggs despite consuming mostly carbs aka the most fattening macronutrient ever, also companies shilling through influencers made everyone think they need 200g a day
>>
>>77020384
I had 700 my last day of training and 1300g carbs. Not even fucking with you. I'm literally better than all of you. My throughput is fucking retarded

>>77020371
3 eggs is like 19g of protein it's not enough
>>
>>77020371
the calories are way higher in 3 eggs than 1 scoop of protein powder. that's kind of the whole point
>>
>>77020371
It's quick and easy, that's mostly it. Also its straight protein, so the calories per gram of protein ratio is great, which helps during cuts. Matters less, but if you want fast digesting protein, for whatever reason (usually around workouts), then its hard to beat whey. And if you want something that will take hours to digest, like while you are fasted during sleep, hard to beat casein.
>>77020380
It's not cheaper than eggs, and probably not ground beef, at least in much of the U.S. Cost per gram of protein in somewhere in the highest quartile for most of the common big brands. You are paying a premium for the convenience.
>>
>>77020411
a scoop of powder is like 22g protein
>>
>>77020444

>>77020448
anon the only reason anyone supplements protein is so they can fit more protein into a calorie goal they have personally. the "lmao so what just eat eggs" thing doesn't work if you're trying to keep protein high and calories low. i'm sorry but we figured this out on this board about 16-17 years ago.

>>77020487
not true. a ton of people use protein powder just without thinking just because everyone does
>>
>>77020496
>not true because *dumb retard shit*
anon, protein powder has more protein, and less calories than the equivalent of 3 eggs calorie for calorie. these are called MACRO NUTRIENTS. this isn't going to change because some people use protein powder differently. please read the sticky and then kindly kill yourself. thanks

>but anon, why would you eat 3 eggs when you can have 2 ounces of ribeye steak and get the same amount of protein?
Retarded fucking logic, if you can't figure it out then you're a hopeless faggot.

You dumbass, your body can only absorb around 20g protein per serving of food before it gets pooped out.

>>77020371
It’s quick and easy and can be mixed with other things. Eggs are just eggs.
>>
>>77020376
That's not really how the body works
Your liver works the speed it works queuing up what you're digesting and working through it at the speed it synthesizes
That's why everyone has a hard limit around 0.8g of protein per pound of lean body mass
>>
>>77020371
I'm not sure 3 eggs actually is cheaper than two scoops of protein powder. Whey is pretty cheap. Egg prices are pretty variable. I do eat eggs every day though.

Also, eggs have a more rounded macro profile, whereas protein powder is basically pure protein. If you already have enough fat in your diet, powder is more calorie efficient.

Lie number one.
You need 4 eggs to match one scoop in protein content.

>and it's way cheaper that way
Lie number two.
3 eggs are already more expensive than 1 scoop.

While eggs have great calorie/protein ratio for a food, they're still heavily outclassed by powder which can basically give you 30g of protein in 150 cal. Not to mention powder is faster to absorb, faster to prepare, faster to clean up. It's more convenient in all categories.

Eggs win in terms of other nutrition benefits however - consume both, knowing what they offer.

Costco protein cost (U.S., typical prices)

Eggs (24 large, ~$5):
144 g protein total ~3.5¢ per g

ON Gold Standard Whey (5.64 lb, ~$64.99):
1,920 g protein total ~3.4¢ per g


Bottom line: Protein cost is essentially the same; whey is marginally cheaper per gram.

Czech prices
Cheapest protein powder I could find 6kg - $106
One 25g scoop has around 17g of protein
So one scoop - $0.40
30 eggs - $7.22(on sale)-$11.75(not on sale)
4 eggs - $0.96 - $1.53
1kg of chicken breast $5.30(on sale)- $10.60(not on sale)
74g of raw chicken breast has approximately 17g of protein
74g of chicken breast - $0.39-$0.78
So protein powder is cheaper

When you eat protein, the amino acids linger in your body for hours and slowly get used up. They don't just magically disappear. I've done plenty of workouts fasted in the morning because the protein I had for dinner is still being processed.

a mix of convenience and inability to consume too much food
to get the same amount of daily protein I need I'd have to eat 12 eggs and a liter of milk on top of what I already eat which would in turn put me in a caloric surplus requiring more exercise
I simply don't have the desire to eat more nor the time to exercise more than I already do.

Egg prices are back down (mostly). Inflation drove them up with everything else, but the big spike was due to avian flu, which led to a lot of flocks getting culled, so less supply for the same demand. That's done and over with, so prices have reverted back closer to norms.
Anyway, it really depends on where you live, where you get groceries and what exactly you are buying. At HEB in Texas, its nearer the middle than it used to be, at least compared to the cheaper options for any given item. If you only buy overpriced free range grass fed and finished ultra super organic shit, then yeah, whey is cheaper.

Lazy

I fear protein powder is fake news. There are constantly exposes on how its all full of heavy metals, and nitogen spiking (false protein reads) and cake batter and even if its not, do all those sweeteners and emulsifiers and binders fuck up their digestibility? I know that "whey" is nighly digestible, but does that mean that "chocloate ice cream brownie batter cake flavored Isoprotein whey mix from YoBro! Nutrition" is highly digestible? it also has no additional nutrition (vitamins, minerals and shit), just protein, so can the protein even be utilized in the absnee of (for example) naturally occuring B6 that is bound to every other natural protein source in the work (or whatever)?

Just eat the eggs. They sell canned chicken - its like canned tuna but better tasting. Eat that. Buy pre-made burger patties and cook the whole package, then put two patties in a plastic bag w some sold. Boom, mobile protein, about 50 grams of pure beef.

Protein powders are gay
>>
If you are trying to build a high quality physique, spend the extra dollar for real food. This Jewey penny pinching is madness. Especially because the manufacturers probably add 20% less protein (as allowed by law) and 20% more sugars (also allowed by law) tham what the label shows.

You cant "hack" the body.

You sure?
>>
>>77024846
If you have to worry about the cost of 3 eggs you have bigger problems in your life than your protein intake.
>>
>>77024859
Ok? The point I'm trying to make is that I'm pretty sure a scoop of protein powder is not more expensive than 3 eggs. Say you pay about $5 for 12 eggs, that's $1.25 for 3 eggs. If you pay $50 for a kg of protein powder with 40 scoops, that's still only $1.25 per scoop, and you're getting more protein for a scoop than you are for 3 eggs. Usually, you can find 2kg tubs of protein powder on special for about $50 or $60 if you know where to look, so that's twice as cheap as eating 3 eggs. I think you might be retarded.

The point is that you're obviously poor if you have to compare egg prices to whey prices in order to come to a decision which you would like to consume.

Imagine saving $0.75 or even less being a big deal for you. That's sad and you should prioritize getting out of your current financial situation over building muscle and skip on protein all together.

It isn't though. There's around 800ish grams of protein in a 1 kg tub of protein powder, If we assume 7 g of protein one egg, that's 114 eggs. Where do you live where 114 of even the shittiest cage, grain fed eggs are way cheaper than the shittiest 1 kg tub of no name protein powder?

3 eggs are not necessarily cheaper than whey, it's about the same cost. Also I don't want to eat 3 eggs every day.

Does anyone else get really sleepy after taking whey? Even just one scoop seems to send me to sleep. I don't get this from other dairy products or from beef protein powder.

Convenience and it's quicker digesting

eggs are good but they raise blood cholesterol and have become expensive. i can still buy 5kg grass fed whey for $90. i take 3 scoops, mix with water and drink, half the protein for the day done in 1 minute. can you buy 700 large eggs for $90? can you eat and clean up 12 eggs in 1 minute? few foods are cheaper protein sources than whey and none are more convenient

Post the brand/product you use. It could be a number of different suspected ingredients.

Way cheaper? Really? I though protein powder was pretty much the cheapest form of protein these days.

I have never heard anything more reddit, but that's ok, it was actually a hecking strawman, because being Chinese isn't an insult unless you're hecking racist, the point is with that mentality you'll slide straight to chopping the paws off dogs and blending kittens, like a Chinese.

Why
>>
>>77020371
because it's a lot easier to mix a scoop of protein into a drink than to cook eggs.

My breakfast today was a scoop of protein power and creatine in water. Took 30 seconds to make and drink. It lets me quickly go back to what I do most of time, feeling despair.

What's stopping you from eating 3 eggs + a scoop of whey? It's a supplement not a meal replacement dumbass

How is 3 eggs cheaper than a scoop of protein powder? Also protein powder gets digested much quicker and doesn't make you feel full. I eat 4 eggs a day, and drink a protein shake twice. I cba to eat like 12 eggs every single day, that's just retarded.
>>77020522
First of all, it's 30g
Second of all, it's for the median normalfag
Third of all, it refers to protein that is used for muscle building. The extra protein is not shat out, at worst it gets turned into fat or carbs

It's HSN (hsnstore.eu) Evobasic whey, the strawberry version. Ingredients are these:
>Whey protein concentrate from milk, natural flavourings, colouring (beetroot red), sodium chloride, acidulant (citric acid), sweetener (sucralose), lactase (100000 ALU/g, from Aspergillus oryzae).
That "natural flavourings" looks suspicious. Could that be what's causing sleepiness? Seems like a strange reaction to a flavouring.
>>
>drink milk
>like oatmeal
>want a quick meal replacement occassionally
>find a way to put all those uneaten veggies in a blender
all good ways to incorporate powder into your normal routine, it increases your intake and you wont have to rely on eating endless eggs for it.

1. You're not going to get a dozen good quality eggs for $2.
2. It doesnt specify anything about the whey powder they're using. Is it a high-carb bulking one? There's no way a scoop of high protein, low carb protein powder has a lower protein to calorie ratio than eggs. Also, what brand did they use, why did it cost thay much.
3. Youre more likely to find tubs of protein powder on special for sale prices than you are with eggs, and a tub of protein powder lasts longer than a dozen eggs which gives you more time to wait for the next sale, so they haven't taken real world economics into account.
>>
>>77032597
that chart is bullshit because they compare an expensive whey brand to the cheapest eggs and also disregard protein quality (bioavailability, amino profile) leading to ridiculous claims like oats being good protein source

but you need to learn to read charts. are you blind?

That's a table not a chart, and I read it correctly.

It's my table, which I made for own purposes. First off, as I said when I posted it:
>it really depends on where you live, where you get groceries and what exactly you are buying.
As for y'all's points
>1. You're not going to get a dozen good quality eggs for $2.
That's literally the price I pay for Grade A. Buying AA eggs is a waste of money, only difference with A is A can have some appearance defects. And I don't buy organic because its a rip off 95% of the time.
>It doesnt specify anything about the whey powder they're using....There's no way a scoop of high protein, low carb protein powder has a lower protein to calorie ratio than eggs. Also, what brand did they use, why did it cost thay much.
The brand is ON (Optimum Nutrition), literally first column. That's how much that 3.9 lb tub costs everywhere give or take a few dollars. And the cal/g protein is saying that for every 5 calories, the protein powder has 1g of protein. Versus the eggs have 11.7 calories per gram of protein.
>3. Youre more likely to find tubs of protein powder on special for sale prices than you are with eggs
I've never seen it on sale, more power to you if you do
>bullshit because they compare an expensive whey brand to the cheapest eggs
For the most part, eggs are eggs, milk is milk, chicken is chicken. The unregulated supplement industry has a bad reputation for selling shit. It's worth paying more for brands that are widely accepted as (relatively) honest/good quality. That aside, see my earlier point about it depends on what you buy. Show me cheap protein powder, I'll bet its dogshit quality, but if I'm wrong great, I love spending less.
>disregard protein quality (bioavailability, amino profile) leading to ridiculous claims like oats being good protein source
Again, this was made for me. I know what has good bioavailability and what does not. This was only about cost. And oats are shit just for the calorie/protein ratio alone. But they do have *some* protein.
>>
You guys know you can crack a raw egg or two *into* your protein shake right? It's not either or, you can have both
>>
>>77032810
>For the most part, eggs are eggs, milk is milk, chicken is chicken.
But thats wrong. A stressed animal produces a lower quality product. Animals in shit conditions have poor quality meat/eggs/milk. Buying cheap shit is a waste of money because youre not actually benefiting from it like you would from a quality product.

chart
noun
noun: chart; plural noun: charts

a sheet of information in the form of a table, graph, or diagram.

not just blind but esl too
>>
>>77032841
This is what charts look like. Data points presented in a table form are used to create charts, but the table is not a chart, it's a table. A table is not considered a chart, because you aren't charting anything, you're just presenting raw data. Hope that helps.

>>77032837
>A stressed animal produces a lower quality product.
Sure, I'll give you that. But the difference in 'low' versus 'high' quality eggs is a lot less than in protein powder that is what it says it is versus protein powder that is half cut with god knows what. That's just a natural consequence of a heavily regulated food industry compared to a virtually unregulated supplement industry.
That "protein powder is bad because heavy metals" article everyone here always throws around? All the powders that had high levels of heavy metals were off-brand shit you've never heard of. The major, well-known brands like ON did not have the same problem.
Actually this study
>https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10047994/
Seems to suggest that grass-fed vs grain-fed beef had essentially the same protein digestibility. The grass-fed had slightly better fats, and less fat, but the amount of protein content was close enough to not matter.
So for the purposes of protein quality for beef, it may not matter. And since this is 4chan, I'll just go ahead and extrapolate that broadly and say it probably doesn't matter much for any other animal protein.

I've put about as much effort as I care to into addressing criticisms of my table, so I guess I'll just take your word on that. I'll assume since no other rebuttals were offered, everything else I said was accepted as reasonable.
At the end of the day, everyone just has to do their own calculations on cost based on what they typically buy, if it's something they give a shit about. Or not, makes no difference to me.
