Calcium Caseinate (Casein)
Calcium Caseinate is a slow absorbing protein that provides a steady release of amino acids for muscle repair and growth. It is a biologically-unique grade of protein derived from milk, and is low in fat, lactose and sodium.
Calcium Caseinate is an especially rich source of the immune-boosting and muscle protein sparing amino acid glutamine. To be precise, it has a potent 20.5% glutamine content. It's also a great source of arginine, the well-known "growth-hormone-releasing" amino acid.
Calcium Caseinate is an ideal protein to consume immediately before sleeping at night. This is because, Calcium Caseinate digests very slowly (3-7 hours) and could almost be considered a "time-released" protein because it forms a "gel-like" substance in the gut, which slows its absorption rate. So late into the night, your muscle cells will continue to be supplied with muscle-building protein and amino acids, lessening the time your body is "fasting" and thus increasing the likelihood of prolonged muscle-building activity and improved nitrogen retention.
Many individuals will also feel "fuller" when supplementing with Calcium Caseinate, as opposed to our WPI/WPC, because of its "gelling" effect. This causes it to more slowly leave the gut (called "transit time"), thus helping the body feel fuller, longer. This effect could be ideal for those who are restricting calories.
