Super Plasma Absorption Rate and Dose

You didn't define them specifically as such. What I am saying is that protein subfractions are peptides - peptides are digested in the stomach to smaller oligopeptides. So practically any peptide you ingest (including protein subfractions) will most likely be digested into smaller, non-functional parts before it hits the blood stream. It is for this reason that you cannot orally ingest hormonal peptides, and I gave GH as example. Insulin would be another example.
By this logic, those protein subfractions wouldn't do you any better than any other form of protein.

Now, I am not saying that the subfractions in Super Bovine Plasma don't do you any good - I am asking how do they do you good? What makes them special so that they avoid the fate that other peptides do?

It goes back to what I said about certain peptides being able to pass through the muscular membrane that makes any particular type of peptide more viable than another.

It stands to reason that as some proteins are metabolized, like say GH for instance, that as the structure changes so does its function.

There are plenty of oligopeptides that still have a muscular affect, not all are reduced di and tri peptides that have none.

That right there is the answer I was looking for. Thank you! You've cleared it up for me.

No problem, your question forced me to do a lot of reading to re learn some bio chemistry (which I still do not have a complete grasp on) so perhaps I should be the one thanking you.
