• Optimum tion - 100% Casein Gold Standard Natural Protein Chocolate Creme - 2 lbs. (909 g) Optimum tion 100% Casein Gold Standard Natural Chocolate Creme Protein is slow-acting and aminogen enhanced. Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day. Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the ic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken-down into their amino subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of their unique time-released qualities, caseins are aptly described as anti-catabolic or muscle-protecting proteins. Beyond the Basics Natural Flavors, Sweeteners, or Synthetic Colors Loaded with Micellar Casein 24 grams of time-released protein per serving Contains Aminogen diegestive enzymes to enhance utilization Nearly 5 grams of BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine). Nearly 5 grams of Glutamine & Glutamine Precursors in every scoop The Bigger Picture of Casein Rapid protein use is desirable immediately before and after exercise to help refuel recovering muscles, but delayed digestion and absorption may be more beneficial at other times - including bedtime when your body typically goes for hours without food. Casein proteins are sensitive and thicken in the stomach. Because of this, it can take more than twice as long for Optimum tion's Gold Standard 100% Casein to be broken down into its amino subcomponents than other proteins. By using only premium micellar casein, they've created a protein formula that's truly time-released. About Optimum tion Optimum tion, Inc.
