Description

Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Casein Protein is the protein formula that sets the standard for slow digesting protein support. If you run out of amino acids in your bloodstream and have a lack of protein in your muscles, your body can start breaking down muscle proteins to fuel itself. Casein Protein can make the real difference and allow you to take your training to the next level. Casein Protein can take up to 7 hours to digest, which is just about as long as the average person sleeps every night, and that makes it the perfect solution to avoid protein breakdown and amino acid oxidation during your sleeping period. Faster digesting protein is desirable immediately before and after exercise to help refuel recovering muscles, but slow digestion and absorption may be more beneficial at other times - including bedtime when your body typically goes for hours without food. Casein proteins are acid sensitive and thicken in the stomach. Compared to some other proteins, it can take more than twice as long for Gold Standard 100% Casein to be broken down into its amino acid subcomponents.

Benefits:

Enhances muscle size, strength & recovery

24 grams of protein to help build and maintain muscle

Slow-digesting protein for overnight muscle recovery

BCAAs supports endurance and recovery

How To Use:

Mix a scoop of the powder into 8 to 14 fluid ounces of cold water or milk using a shaker cup.

For best results, mix up your shake 30 to 60 minutes after your workout, before bed, or use as an anytime snack.

For healthy adults, consume enough protein to meet your daily protein requirements with a combination of high protein foods and protein supplements throughout the day as part of a balanced diet and exercise program.

Consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day through a combination of high protein foods and supplements.
