The best thing about this protein craze is almost everyone gets enough anyways and the body excretes excess protein so the cheapest and easiest way to get extra protein is to drink a gymbro's piss.

Its sterile and I like the taste.

[–] zer0hour@lemmy.world 46 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I know this is all jokes, but just to stop the perpetual piss is sterile thing, it's absolutely not sterile

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 10 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, a lot of people suffer from bladder infections. Would increase their life quality if it was indeed sterile.

I know you're joking but urine should not contain any protein in a healthy body.

[–] areakode@riskeratspizza.com 23 points 2 weeks ago

So you choose option #2? 😂

[–] toiletobserver@lemmy.world 27 points 2 weeks ago

You make a surprisingly salient point, sir

[–] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 2 weeks ago (12 children)

I did the math recently and I think that in order to hit what the WHO considers the minimum safe protein for my weight, I would have to eat WAY more, like twice what I typically do.

This may be a vegan-specific problem.

[–] jumponboard@lemmy.world 27 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It's not a vegan problem. It's a food selection problem.

I'm vegan and I eat plenty of protein. More than most non vegans

If you’re older this is not true. Near all of the older people i know need protein supplemented.

[–] Apytele@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

🤣 I do it to keep weight on so what puzzles me is people who drink protein drinks to lose weight. My diet plan is pretty simple (it's just a basic hierarchy of choices):

  • eat the option with the most fiber
  • that being equal, eat the option with the most protein
  • THAT being equal, eat the thing with the highest polyunsaturated fat
  • after that, eat the thing that tastes best and has the least uncomplicated carbohydrates
  • eat the thing with the least trans fat

I usually don't even get past #2 and very rarely past 3.

[–] Damarus@feddit.org 18 points 2 weeks ago (11 children)

Protein makes you sated much more quickly than carbs, so a protein rich diet compliments losing weight.

Only the nitrogen is excreted. The body converts the rest into glucose then fat. So the excess protein in everything is literally making us fatter and more unhealthy!

My doc says I need to build muscle mass to fix my shoulder and protein helps so I'm one of the few who needs it and I don't really buy into the craze.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 2 weeks ago

I know you think you're trying to make piss-drinking happen, but it's not going to happen.

This. The actual tool is dead simple, just a plastic bar with a magnet and a couple of little plastic nubbins to help line it up in the right place.

...It's also only $15 on Amazon, so it should pay for itself pretty quickly

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 37 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just steal one on your way out.

[–] Themosthighstrange@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

just shopslifted it from amazon, now im eating good on protien bars

[–] turtlesareneat@piefed.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago

Bezos hates this one simple trick

[–] Greg@lemmy.ca 47 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If you ate protein bars you could just smash them open with your hands, at least that's how I understand protein works 🤔

They open them at the register for you. Like how they remove those ink tags from clothing.

ICP wrote a song about it. Nobody knows how they work though.

Ya and you can easily buy the tool for them on eBay or a normal strong magnet if you know it’s needed.

[–] istdaslol@feddit.org 26 points 2 weeks ago

I think LPL has a video in these. All you need is a strong magnet to operate the latching mechanism from the outside

[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago

The actual tool uses two magnets to unlock the mechanism and allow you to slide the tab.

On the wider ones, the heel of your shoe to the center top of the clear plastic will cause it to bow and open up.

I wonder how expensive those containers are in order to offset the loss

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Like a dollar or less in bulk.

Are they really that expensive?

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

I imagine it has more to do with money density, e.g. dollars per cubic inch. If you sold gold bars, making them huge limits the amount that someone can sneak out under their trenchcoat.

[–] webp@mander.xyz 10 points 2 weeks ago

They seek to keep us weak

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 10 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

People on GLP-1s need to eat more protein. Because of this, everything now has added protein which has caused the price of whey protein to rise dramatically.

Those bars are probably anywhere from $2-4 each, so they're targets for theft.

They use magnet to open the latch.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago

The weirder thing is how much these cost.

Tool called hammer 🔨👀
