What does the rest of your diet look like?

5 grams is the general amount. Be careful when taking to much of one particular amino acid because you can super saturate the transporters that carry the amino acids. These transporters transport 4 different amino acids at once. If there is a very high concentration of one you can cause the others to not be absorbed and could cause a deficiancy if the practice is maintained over time.

That should be fine, I think it is good practice to ingest proteins that have a broad amino acid profile.
