Gregory Chandler on CASEIN: Good for Bedtime

CASEIN

For bodybuilders, whey protein is typically the main protein supplement. Another type of protein supplement is casein. Casein is a much slower-digesting protein as compared to whey.

In earlier times, slow-digesting proteins, such as casein, were considered inferior after workouts because your body only has a short time window to boost recovery and muscle growth. Yet research now shows that taking casein after workouts is as effective as whey at boosting muscle growth. Whey protein and casein protein can be mixed together to get a protein blend that is both fast acting and long lasting.

In addition, taking some casein before bedtime is a good way to prevent protein breakdown during the night's sleep.
