Protein absorption from foods with 30g of protein:

Egg White: 5g (25g undigested)
Whey Protein: 5g (25g undigested)
Soy: 5g (25g undigested)
Meat: 10g (20g undigested)
Whole Egg: 15g (15g undigested)

Whole eggs are by far the best source of protein.

Re: Undigested

That raises an interesting question.

How much of the protein on food labels is undigested?

On most food labels, 60-65 grams of protein equal 100% of the Minimum Daily Requirement.

Two or three ounces of amino acids per day is all we need to survive?

That sounds crazy.
