Hi guys
I'm a newbie to these boards but have already learnt more in the last two nights than in the last 6 years I have been into the supplement thing.
First of all I would like to say to all those guys who put people like me on the right track - TO KEEP IT UP!!
Anyway, what my question is is, what well known protein powder is best to take before bed? I live in the UK and cannot seem to find a protein source made up of casein, I have been using EAS Simply Whey and always felt this was adequate for nightime use, it is frustrating not having access to the Protein Factory as well as other US sites.
I would appreciate anyone that has ideas on the matter.
Cheers

for casein just drink Milk. Simple as that. Mix a couple scoops of whey in a glass of milk and have at it. IMO one of the best things you can take before bed is a meal replacement. Metrx, Dorian Yates, etc. They all blend multiple protien sources and have a nice nutritional content to get you through the night.

Paco, i work afternoon shift and looking for a snack when i get home. how long would you wait to go to bed after this last shake? i was thinking something like 6 or 8 egg whites, cottage cheese, some no-fat milk and maybe a little whey but i'm going to try and have the whey after training only.i'm an endomorph with a sluggish metabolism and cutting at the moment and with my shift i do most of my eating during the second half of the day. thanks.Richie

Do not eat anything that has calcium for about 2 hrs before you take your ZMA. If you are not sure about calcium content in the food then just don't eat anything for 2 hours before you take ZMA. Some people may say 1.5 hrs is sufficient. I would say 2 hrs window is good enough following a big meal (dinner).
Take your zma. Wait for 45 minutes. It will mostly be absorbed by then. Eat what you like after that.
