About Casein protein powder

Casein protein powder is a high-quality dairy-derived protein sourced primarily from cow’s milk. Naturally rich in essential amino acids, it’s a complete protein that supports muscle recovery and growth. Unlike whey protein, casein digests slowly, providing a sustained release of nutrients over several hours, making it ideal for nighttime use or prolonged energy needs. It is commonly used in Western diets and fitness nutrition to enhance protein intake without adding excess calories. Low in fat and carbohydrates, casein protein powder can be an effective option for weight management and maintaining lean muscle mass. However, individuals with lactose intolerance or milk allergies should exercise caution, as it is derived from milk. Due to its thick consistency, casein works well for shakes, smoothies, and protein-packed desserts. This nutrient-dense supplement is perfect for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, or anyone seeking to optimize their protein consumption.
