    Casein

    I will be doing more research on the topic, but Id like to hear from you ladies first

    I was told by a female nutritionist that I should not be taking casein as it is recommended for men. however , i have been noticing many women on this site take it before bed?

    Any personal experiences you would care to share?

    Casein is fine for women.Did the "nutritionist" say why she thinks is ok for men but not women?

    Casein

    I love casein. Why was it said to be for men only? I take a scoop for bed and it keeps me from waking up hungry really early in the morning. I think you should try it, and see how it works for you. I like ON 100% Casein Protein. Either the supreme chocolate or the creamy vanilla..I tried the banana, and it was wretched, haha...good luck though!
    "I embrace my desire to
    feel the rhythm, to feel connected
    enough to step aside and weep like a widow
    to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
    to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
    to swing on the spiral
    of our divinity and still be a human."

    Why would it be only for men? It is only a protein. That is kinda strange. I use ON Bananas and Cream and ON Chocolate before I go to sleep. Id be curious on why she would say that? Unless she really doesnt know what it is.

    Casein is the major protein in milk and cheese, so there is no reason why a woman can't take it.

    Thumbs up

    I use ON casein with a teaspoon of peanut butter before bed and I dont wake up in the middle of the night hungry for a protein shake. Also, if you only add about a cup of water, it is so thick and you can eat it with a spoon like pudding. yum, yum
