Casein Protein Powder

[Big Smoothy]

OK,

Another protein Whey conundrum, as the only place I can buy it is out of stock. Last time I bought Soy until the Whey arrived.

Now the Whey is sold out for a couple weeks, so I bought the only altnernative possible:

Casein protein shake.

"Platinum tri-celle Casein" by the "On" company.

Serving size is one "heaping" scoop:

30 grams of protein.
12.5 gms of essential amino acids
200 mg L-Theanine

Calories: 150

Sodium 11% of daily allowance at 270 mg
Potassium 7%
Carbs, 4 gm
Sugars, 2g
Cholesterol 10% at 30 mg

I know Casein is a slow metabolizing protein, best taken before bed (iircc).

This is all I can get.

What is your take on this?


Thanks.

its good. slower absorbing and slightly less bcaa's per serving then whey, but a hell of a lot better then soy protein.

Just bought some myself and got it in yesterday, pretty good tasting, a little "powdery", didn't make me wake up at 3 am cramping or having to piss either. Night 1 I liked it.
