Today we’re going to talk about casein protein, which is a different form of protein than you’re probably used to. So is casein protein better than others? And what are the benefits of casein protein? You read it below.
What Does Casein Protein Do?
Casein is a protein derived from the solids of cow’s milk. Casein is affected by the stomach’s acidic environment, making it slow to digest and making amino acids available to your muscles for a long period of time.
What does casein do to your body?
Without protein, no muscle growth. Because casein takes longer for your body to absorb, casein protein is a good evening snack to keep your muscle building going all night.

Which is better, whey or casein protein?
It’s not that one is necessarily better than the other. Whey protein, or whey protein, digests quickly and casein protein takes longer to be digested and absorbed. Both proteins are rich in amino acids, but whey is considered ‘better’ for muscle building, while casein is more useful for preventing muscle breakdown. If you combine both proteins, so the whey during the day and the casein before bed, you have the ultimate combo.
What does casein protein contain?
There are shakes and powders with casein protein, but as we wrote, casein comes from cow’s milk. Milk, quark or yogurt are therefore also great as a snack before going to sleep. Do you not eat dairy products? Soy drink or protein powder based on soy or peas offer a solution.
