Confusion regarding leucine
*When it is said that a given amount of leucine is needed to maximize protein synthesis does that mean each protein dosage should have that much protein at minimum (else protein synthesis is not triggered) or that much at maximum (no additional benefit to additional protein then, better to split apart into multiple doses)?
*Also is the magic leucine amount 2.2g or 3g or does it vary by body weight/ect (and if so how does one calculate it)?
