The first time I had Whitney try a casein shake with water she hated it! Casein is very thick so most people don’t like it. Try this version, we think it tastes like a milkshake!
Casein will slowly release amino acids to your muscles while whey will provide a quick shot of amino acids to your muscles. Therefore, casein is beneficial to take before bed because it will provide your muscles with a steady stream of amino acids while you sleep. You can also add flax to get a serving of healthy fat & fiber. Make sure you choose a clean protein powder!
