cottagge cheese or egg whites

[nicks75]

which is the better food for protein?

 

[fufu]

They are both great!

Alot of people eat cottage cheese before going to bed because it contains casein protein which is slow-digesting.

I have both as part of my breakfast, but yeah a lot of people here have cottage cheese at night...

 

[atherjen]

either is good! both are slow digesting proteins.

I am cutting right now (pre comp) and have egg whites before bed.

 

[nicks75]

Thanks for the replys all, I have been eating both every day but after seeing your replys I will cut the cottage cheese and up the servings of egg whites since I am also cutting.

No, they're not pointless for you, you just need to make sure your calories and macros are in check.

Eating at night is a-okay even on a cut provided your calories are accounted for. Even better, is, if you are on a hypocaloric diet, have some carbs at night (blasphemy, I know).... it's protein sparring.
