1 Leon, for Paleo eaters, how is Whey protein different than Egg protein? I've been buying the more expensive egg protein but I'm not sure it matters.

2 Most people do fine on whey protein.  The trouble is finding it without any added weirdness.

The bigger problem though, is liquid food.  Shakes and that sort of thing bypass a lot of the body's innate ability to determine how much it has eaten.  Same thing with fruit juice, smoothies, pop, etc.  The only time humans are supposed to take in calories that way is infancy, and then it's okay that you don't get satiated because you need a huge energy surplus.

3 I knew you'd have a reasoned, scientific take on it. Thank you.
