Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable directly before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day and night time.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 protein sources. Because of their unique time-released traits, caseins are aptly described as anti-catabolic or muscle-protecting proteins.Casein protein is ideal for use in between meals and before bed. Casein protein is sometimes known as "night time" protein because it's ideal to have just before you go to bed.100% Casein Protein Product Highlights: 24 g Instantized Blend of Slow-Digesting Casein-Based Proteins Rich in Highly Anti-Catabolic Micellar Casein Over 9 g of BCAAs, Glutamine, and Glutamine Precursors per Scoop Only 3-4 g of Carbs per serving AMINOGEN EnhancedServing Size: 1 Heaping Scoop (32g)Servings Per Container: 29 Amount Per Serving Amt %DV Calories 120 Calories From Fat 5 Total Fat 0.5g 1% Saturated Fat 0g 0% Cholesterol 10mg 3% Sodium 45mg 2% Total Carbohydrate 4g 1% Dietary Fiber 1g 4% Sugars 1g Protein 24g Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 0% Calcium 50% Iron 2% Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) Tryptophan 292mg Valine 1609mg Threonine 1039mg Isoleucine 1312mg Leucine 2129mg Lysine 1822mg Phenylalanine 1144mg Methionine 644mg Conditionally Essential Amino Acids (CAAs) Arginine 866mg Cystine 79mg Tyrosine 846mg Histidine 688mg Proline 2421mg Glutamine & Precursors 4950mg Nonessential Amino Acids (NAAs) Aspartic Acid 1589mg Serine 1396mg Glycine 510mg Alanine 664mg * % Daily Value is based on a 2,000 calorie diet.

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.
