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 acidic environment of the
stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be
broken-down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins.
Because of these unique "time-released" qualities, caseins are aptly described
as being anti-catabolic, or muscle-protecting, proteins.

Vanilla flavor is good...Banana Cream flavor is excellent...shake gets thick...a little less water and you have pudding! Excellent bedtime slow-release protein....
This stuff is fabulous!! Very filling, so much more than whey protein. I stay full for hours and I'm never full for hours! Very thick and rich, I'm buying all the flavors!

I had a smaller tub of the cookies & cream and it was delicious, even with water. I ordered a big tub of the banana cream, and yeah.. not so much. I wish I went with the C&C. Still have to try the others. Great casein protein though. Top notch!
