Which type of protein is best in the morning, Whey, Casein or other protein?

[G.D.]

your body needs protein first thing in the morn after long night sleep etc..whey is fast acting/get into your system quicker...

Maybe, but since you are catabolic wouldn't casein or a mix be better since whey is not anti-catabolic?

take whey if you can, but it's not wrong if you go with casein instead of it (if you're out of whey or something)

take casein theres no need for whey.. its fast acting so unless you plan to workout not long after you wake up your just giving your body a rush of protein where as if you take the casein last a good while.. if im correct its due to the casein turning into a gel in the stomach and as it is digested little by little you get it over a period of time instead of all in a instant...

i have a scoop of whey with 6 oz's of water right when i wake up. i jsut feel better getting some protein in me right when i wake up. after downing that, i make a real meal with solid food. i cant have a shake for breakfast. jsut doesnt fill me up enough. give me a real breakfast.

As long as you eat I don't think it matters. It's only a few minutes difference (correct me if I am wrong) between whey and casein to start getting into your system, same with oats vs. sugar, oats only take a few mintues longer. I would rather eat something that will fill me up then a protein shake, the reason I use whey for after workout (instead of eating a chicken breast for instance) is because of convenience of being able to put it plus oat bran into a shaker bottle and take it to the gym with me.
