Product type
Casein protein is a slow-digesting dairy protein derived from milk, making up about 80% of the protein content in cow's milk. It is known for its ability to form a gel or curd in the stomach, which leads to a gradual release of amino acids into the bloodstream. This property makes casein protein an ideal choice for muscle recovery and growth, particularly for athletes and bodybuilders.

When selecting casein protein, buyers should consider the protein content and purity levels, as well as any additional ingredients or flavorings. It's important to specify the desired form (e.g., micellar casein or casein hydrolysate) and any certifications, such as non-GMO or organic, if applicable. Quantities can vary based on usage, so it's advisable to request bulk pricing for larger orders.
