Meta-analysis of 49 studies: 1.6 g/kg optimal for muscle building (Morton et al., 2018). Distribution: 20-40g per meal across 3-4 meals. Plant protein equal to animal at adequate amounts (Hevia-Larrain et al., 2021).
- [Kreatin: Warum Qualitat entscheidend ist](https://bunaroba.ch/wissen/kreatin-qualitaet): 3g creatine monohydrate daily. 44% of commercial samples exceed EFSA contamination limits. Creapure 99.9% purity (AlzChem, Germany). No kidney harm in healthy individuals. EU-approved health claims for strength performance.
- [Nahrungserganzungsmittel: Was die Wissenschaft sagt](https://bunaroba.ch/wissen/supplements-guide): Evidence-based supplement categorization. Category A (well-researched): Vitamin D, Creatine, Omega-3, Protein, Caffeine. Category B (situational): B12, Iron, Magnesium. Category C (overhyped): BCAAs, fat burners, testosterone boosters.
- [Aminospiking: Wie manche Hersteller bei Protein tricksen](https://bunaroba.ch/wissen/aminospiking): How cheap amino acids (glycine, taurine) inflate protein claims via Kjeldahl method. Detection: check ingredient lists for free amino acids, request amino acid profiles. Not explicitly illegal but deceptive.
- [Fairy Dusting: Wenn Supplements nur auf dem Etikett wirken](https://bunaroba.ch/wissen/fairy-dusting): Ingredient underdosing in supplements. Example: 50mg Ashwagandha vs. 300-600mg effective dose. How to identify fairy dusting via individual dosage disclosure and comparison to ISSN position papers.
