Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the
stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be
broken-down into their amino acid sub components than whey and other proteins.
Because of these unique "time-released" qualities, caseins are aptly described
as being anti-catabolic, or muscle-protecting, proteins.
Suggested Use:
Use 100% Casein Protein first thing in the morning, immediately before bed, in
place of small meals, and/or any other time when delayed protein absorption is
desired. To encourage a positive nitrogen balance, consume approximately 1 gram
of protein per pound of body weight per day from a combination of high protein
foods and supplements. For even better results, consume your daily protein
allotment over several small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
