Dymatize Elite Casein has become a very popular protein because of its slower digestion. Casein proteins in general have increased in popularity within the past couple years. Many users like to use Casein protein at night to allow for a slow release of amino acids into the bloodstream while they sleep, hopefully preventing catabolism.
Dymatize Elite Casein contains 24 grams of protein per scoop. It is a thicker consistency that most protein powders. This is what contributes to the slower digestion. The Casein protein stays in the stomach longer, allowing for a much slower absorption rate. The rate of digestion for a single scoop of Casein protein could take hours to fully digest making it ideal to take before bedtime.
