Casein Protein Powder
Whilst it is beneficial to restrain from meals or snacks immediately before bed, this can leave your muscles without the nutrition they need. Micellar Casein is designed to release overnight protein for up to 7 hours to stop your body from going into starvation mode while you sleep. Left without bedtime protein, it is possible that your body will break down valuable muscle tissue for energy, undoing all your hard work. Casein can refuel your muscles while you sleep by providing vital Branched Chain Amino Acids that synthesise muscle tissue and contribute to repair, maintenance and growth of muscle mass.
Flavours & Ingredients
Casein protein powder comes in a choice of 3 tasty flavours. You can order either chocolate, strawberry or vanilla to find your favourite. It contains 4.3g of naturally occurring glutamine per serving. Glutamic acid is vital for building proteins and amino acids in the body. The powder also has an added digestive enzyme blend that helps to increase nutrient absorption in the body, ultimately providing you with more energy. Casein has minimal fat and carbohydrate content to effectively complement a calorie-controlled diet or weight management programme.
How to prepare
To make a pre-bedtime shake, simply take 2 scoops of powder (approximately 30g) with 500ml of water or milk in your Applied Nutrition shaker. Mix it well and consume just before bedtime for optimum results. Whilst the slow release protein is a perfect addition to your sleep routine, you can also take it between meals between 2 and 3 times a day.
Each container holds 900g of Casein protein powder, which equates to 30 servings. The powder is gluten-free to cater to different dietary restrictions.
