Optimum Nutrition Casein

Optimum Nutrition are one of the most well recognised brands in the sports supplement industry and have offered a consistently high level of quality since their inception. It is unsurprising then that Optimum Nutrition Casein is one of the top selling products on Cheap Discount Supplements. But why do people opt to use Casein protein over it counter parts and what benefits does Optimum Nutrition Casein hold over other supplement products, particularlry when building muscle?

Optimum Nutrition Casein Benefits

Optimum Nutrition Casein is a high quality source of time relase protein with minimal carbs/sugars, making it ideal intra-sleep recovery. The two types of protein typically used by sports industry experts are whey and casein. Whey protein represents a very fast release of protein into your blood stream, making it ideal post workout when your body is particulary protein staved. Whey would be less than ideal before bed however as it is absorbed so quickly it would leave you protein deficient through the night. Enter Optimum Nutrition Casein. Casein protein releases its protein source gradually over a period of around 6 hours, as it is complex enough for your body to need time to break it down. This provides you with a sustained energy source of protein whilst you sleep which prevents you from slipping into a catabolic state whilst resting. Optimum Nutrition casein is therefore essential for any body hoping to avoid muscle waste and optimize growth/development.

Optimum Nutrition Whey would be ideal and would allow options with your diet plan. The ability to choose how quickly your body absorbs protein is a major benefit. Other great products to stack are Optimum Nutritions vitamin blends such as Optimen, Glutamines and Creatine. many Bodybuilder will benefit from the high quality and fair price of the entire Optimum Nutrition range, the Optimum Nutrition Casein really is just one amoungst man standout supplements.
