Micellar Casein, Unflavored - 1.8 lb
Micellar casein is a slowly digested, complete protein, with an excellent amino acid profile that typically has over 4,500 mg of branched-chain amino acids per 1 scoop serving. Because micellar casein thickens in the low pH of the stomach, slowing down its entry into the intestines, its amino acids are released in a sustained manner. Slower digestion ensures continuous availability of amino acids for the body.* NOW® Micellar Casein mixes easily in your favorite beverage and is an ideal choice for sustained protein support. Slow Digestion for Muscle Protection Micellar casein forms a gel-like structure in the stomach, which slows down the rate of digestion. This slow digestion leads to a gradual release of amino acids into the bloodstream, providing a steady supply of nutrients to the muscles over an extended period of time.* This sustained release of amino acids helps protect muscle tissue from breakdown, especially during periods of fasting or sleep.* Appetite Suppression Mechanism On
