    Have your last shake consisting of a casein protein and some healthy fats such as fish oil within 30 minutes of going to sleep.

    The only advice I ever received about eating before bed was when it came to carbs. No carbs, simple or complex 4 hours before bed. The idea was that you want the body burn your fat while sleeping not the sugars from carbs.

    Never heard anything about protein though.
