Casein Protein is a "slow" digesting protein that has anti-catabolic effects. About 80% of the protein in milk is casein protein. Casein also contains high amounts of lactose and should probably be avoided if you are lactose intolerant. Its use as a supplement will dramatically reduce the rate of protein breakdown within your muscles. If the rate of breakdown is less than the rate of protein synthesis you will see increases in muscle growth.
When consumed Casein Protein clots in the stomach digesting over a long period of time and acting as a "protector" to your muscles during times when you may have to go a while without food. This is generally while you sleep at night. The best time to take any casein supplement is right before bed. Because of its slow release rate casein should not be used immediately following your workout when you want as much protein as possible, in your system, at that moment.
Whey Protein Creatine
You should also not mix casein and whey proteins. Because of casein's ability to clot it acts as a "traffic jam" to whey ingested at the same time defeating the purpose of rapid whey supplementation. So to get the best use out of casein protein supplements:
Do Not take casein immediately after your workout. Do Not mix casein and whey protein supplements. Do take casein right before going to sleep for the night to protect your muscles. Do take casein if you plan on not ingesting any food or working out for more than four hours.
