Why use casein instead of whey protein powder? 

When you need long lasting, slow release protein, nothing beats Casein.  Although whey protein is an ideal form of protein to consume after a workout when you want your body to replenish noutrients as quickly as possible, this isn't necessarily the case throughout the rest of the day.

The big benefit of a casein protein powder supplement is that it is digested at a much sloer rate than whey protein or egg protein powder.  This means that casein is the best type of protein to consume throughout the day.  It's also an excellent protein to consume before bedtime since it will be broken down slowly throughout the night.

As with most of Optimum Nutrition's protein powders, their 100% Casein Protein will not let you down.  It tastes excellent, mixes well, and contains top caliber ingredients for it's price.
