Protein right before going to sleep...

[JMRQ]

Hey guys I'm curious how efficiently whey/chicken/beef or basically a protein is broken down into amino-acids before you go to bed

Is there a certain amount of time you should give the protein to breaking down ??

I want there to be as much L-Arginine as possible for maximum HGH release, so what should I do ???

And I hope this won't make me fat at all...

Pre-bed you would want a slow digesting protein such as casein or a blend which is primarily casein and other slow digesting proteins. This would give your body a sustained supply of the amino acids and nutrients it needs to repair those muscles.

Cottage and/or PB before bed.

 

[Rattbones]

COTTAGE CHEESE IS FUCKING GROSS !!!

I've got some Casein protein to use...

Cottage cheese kicks ass ,especially when you throw some fruit into it.

lol, I don't know if cottage cheese kicks ass, but yeah, I add blueberries to help get it down.

I agree with all the posts who suggested casein, including simply eating cottage cheese

 

[cavtrooper96]

Try mixing in sugar free apple sauce to get it down. I do mine just the cottage chz I love it!!!

If you really want protein before bed Ive got some you might like! J/K!

 

[Buzzard]

I love cottage cheese... That's God's food.

Are the amino's still effective for building muscle, EVEN WHILE YOU'RE SLEEPING THO ???

 

[Marat]

Yes. You're significantly overestimating the rate at which amino acids are absorbed after a meal.

 

[HeavyBomber]

Turkey.

 

[charlieDxtreme]

cottage cheese skim milk mixed with whey.

To be honest, a lot of people over analyzed what to eat. Enjoy what you eat. Not saying to go eat ice cream and fried chicken prior to going to bed but why not eat a 10 oz steak with some veggies before bed?

Grilled steak KNOCKS the dick down on cottage cheese with PB

beef is not easily digestible and causes problems with getting/staying alseep in some. generally it's best to consume easily digestible foods/proteins before sleep because of this. cottage cheese has a much higher BV than beef also

Any animal meat stakes time to digest.. So chicken , steak turkey would be fine pre bed. Hit the daily macros ! And your set!

don't over think things. if you goal is to gain, then eat ! if your goal is to get leaner then cut back on the foods. Do you supplement with L-Arginine ?

 

[braveand]

1) Casein
2) Whey + healty fat (will increase digestion time of whey)
3) Cottage cheese + healty fat (same reasons)

I have noticed that proteins plus digestive enzymes (just prior) really provide some vivid dreams for me. This could be just the placebo effect manifesting but there is a conjectured correlation between dream intensity reports and growth hormone release.

"food for thought"

P.S. I don't know if cottage cheese kicks ass but it seems to taste like ass - how anyone can stomach it I do not know

Yeah I take L-Arginine AKG and Pyroglutamate too, plus then I take GABA for increased HGH release

 

[ParadiseCup]

are you taking it on an empty stomach prior to bed ? how long from your last meal are you taking the L-Arginine ?

I hear it all the time, but for me it's eggs. I freaking hate eggs!!! I can down 2cups of cottage cheese or Greek yogurt like it's nothing, but it takes me an hour to eat 8 boiled eggs.

Mmmmm. Good eats. Peaches is my favorite. Pineapple too

scramble the 8 egg whites up and put on some low fat cheese

Do you guys like cheesecake and/or choc. cheesecake? If you do, I gotta cottage cheese recipe that doesn't taste like cottage cheese and will confuse you as to how can something taste so good AND be great for you.

This x 100000000

yes. a large amount of recovery and muscle building occurs while you sleep.

What is your reasoning behind taking L-arginine pre bed?
