Optimum's Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein is a natural slow-digesting anti-catabolic micellar protein that gives you the edge you need to surpass your fitness goals. Though fast protein use is desirable immediately before and after exercise to reinvigorate tired muscles, all other times it's delayed digestion and absorption that your body draws its strength from.
Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein Features:
- Zero artificial flavors, sweeteners or synthetic colors
- Tons of micellar casein
- 24 grams of time-released protein per serving
- Nearly 5 grams of BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine, and valine)
- Nearly 5 grams of glutamine precursors in every scoop
- Contains aminogen digestive enzymes to enhance the utilization
Casein
Casein proteins are known to thicken once in the stomach, which means that it can take more than twice as long for Optimum's Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein to break down into its amino acid subcomponents. This revolutionary product also uses only premium micellar caseins to create a time-released protein, setting itself apart from all the other similar products on the market.
