    My protien shake I take in the am has Whey and Casin in it because they guy said it was "slow to digest" so I wouldnt be sooo freaking hungery right after breakfast.
    I think it works.. holds me over for a good extra couple hours!

    Casein protein is the slowest digesting protein and is great if you want to fuel your muscles for longer periods of time. Casein powder is thicker than that of whey because obviously if it is thicker it takes longer for our stomach/intestines to digest it.

    I take a casein shake right before bed, I know most people will say shouldn't eat before bed blah blah blah. But by doing this I noticed that my body doesn't go in to that epic "starvation mode" while I sleep and continues to burn (metabolically) all night and feeds my muscles.

    One last thing...you should purchase your supplements online...you usually save 40-60% off of GNC prices. They feed off people who don't know any better.

    I've tried that and it doesn't work. By the time I get home get dinner its 8pm. I do my work outs in evening before bed, which probably doesn't help. Drank a shake last night....it was so thick compared to whet
    Gonna give it a week and see if I can adjust to it. I didn't wake up hungry though...but I was pretty tired last night to. Lol

    Yeah casein is much thicker than whey, it needs to be. My favorite brand is Optimum Nutrition casein protein, they have good flavors like Chocolate cake batter. Best part is 1g of sugar per serving!
