And with that belief, people quickly believed that the best way to build muscle and optimize protein absorption is by splitting your meals into smaller portions. Some go as far as splitting it to 10 meals per day. But is all of this splitting necessary? Or is true that your body can only use so much at a time and the rest is pooped out? Let's find out!
