| 100% Casein Protein Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day.
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 subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of their unique time-released qualities, caseins are aptly described as 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.
