Casein protein is a milk-based product known for digesting slowly enabling you to stay satiated longer and inhibiting muscular breakdown. The Bodybuilding.com Signature 100% Casein provides 25 grams of protein, 3 grams of carbohydrate, 1 gram of fat, and 0 grams of sugar per 33 gram scoop. While whey protein starts breaking down in the stomach, casein protein tends to bypass the stomach and digests slowly in the small intestine [1]. Athletes will take advantage of this slower absorption rate by consuming it multiple hours before a workout, during long stretches between meals, or before sleeping in order to limit muscular breakdown. Although some individuals are worried that a late night feeding may disrupt their bodies natural fat breakdown during sleep, studies have shown that consumption of casein before bed didn’t have that effect [2].
