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.

Directions: Use ON 100% Casein Protein Gold Standard first thing in the morning, immediately before bed, in place of small meals, and/or any other time when delayed protein absorption is desired. Consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day from a combination of high protein foods and supplements, to encourage a positive nitrogen balance.
