Casein Slow Release

Casein protein is a type of protein found in milk and dairy products. It accounts for about 80 percent of the total protein content in cow's milk. Casein is a complete protein, i.e. it contains all the essential amino acids needed for growth, repair and maintenance of the body. Casein protein is known for its slow digestion, which means it allows prolonged release of amino acids into the bloodstream for a longer period of time than other sources of protein, such as whey protein. This property of slow release makes casein protein very popular among athletes, bodybuilders, and people who want to support muscle building and muscle growth, especially with prolonged food abandonment, e.g. Overnight or while fasting. The slow digestion of the casein protein is attributed to its structure, which forms a jelly-like substance in the stomach. This jelly-like consistency slows the emptying of the stomach, which leads to a gradual release of amino acids into the bloodstream. This makes casein an ideal source of protein before bedtime or as a meal substitute if a constant protein intake is desired. In addition to its slow release, casein proteins are associated with other potential benefits. It is considered a rich source of calcium, which is important for bone health. Casein can also have a positive effect on satiety, promoting satiety and potentially helping with weight control.
