Whey or Casien

[mattoc12]

I currently take Casien Protein before i go to sleep. I was wondering if i should take Whey or Hydro whey instead or should I just stick to the Casien

stick with casein.


could even mix it a bit.

A blend of casein and whey would be ideal (imo).

Casein at night, whey when you wake up. Or a mix of both for night and morning.

Good information here. I'm probably gonna start a hefty debate with this, but it also states not to take whey and casein together. Here is an excerpt.

"I know what you are thinking, "Why not just mix them together and get the best of both worlds?" Well, I am one step ahead of you. Casein has a unique property, in that it coagulates in the stomach. This causes other proteins to be digested and absorbed much more slowly.

Have you ever tried to run through a vat of tar? It isn't easy by any means. You would be moving very slowly. Casein does the same thing to whey, and other proteins for that matter. Think of it as a sort of binding gel.

This simple little fact would nullify the biggest and most important attribute of whey. That is its ability to flood your system quickly with amino acid and stimulate protein synthesis."
