Casein protein vs. "time-released" protein

[bigsahm21]

Which would be better before bed? I'm considering buying one as a pre-bed meal because I hate eating that late at night...I'm never ever hungry, and it just feels like a chore to me. Shakes would be easier.

The lady at the store I went to today said that taking straight casein would be a bad idea, and that before bed a "time-released" protein blend (a blend of whey, casein, etc.) would be more effective. Anybody have any input on the subject for me?

Whichever is cheapest.

tell the fucking idiot to take a walk and stop selling shit. Take some casein, or try cottage cheese. It's cheaper.

Casein IS a slow-releasing protein. There's a lot of wisdom in "a glass of warm milk before bed".

And will someone please get rid of that spambot posting all over the forum?

casein is time released like stated. i would use a blend during the day, and straight casein at night.

and casein is cheaper per gram of protein than cottage cheese.
