Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard® 100% Casein Protein delivers 24 grams of premium micellar casein protein per serving to support muscle recovery, maintenance, and growth during extended periods without food. Because micellar casein digests significantly slower than whey protein, it provides a sustained release of amino acids over several hours, making it an ideal choice before bedtime or between meals.
Each serving supplies 9 grams of naturally occurring essential amino acids (EAAs) along with magnesium and zinc to support active lifestyles and recovery goals. With a rich, satisfying texture, easy mixability, and great taste, Gold Standard® 100% Casein is a convenient way to keep high-quality protein available when your body needs it most.
Slow Digestion Rate: Unlike whey protein, micellar casein forms a gel-like structure in the stomach that digests gradually, allowing for a slower release of amino acids.
Extended Amino Acid Delivery: Helps provide nutritional support during times when eating is not possible or practical, such as overnight or between meals.
Ideal Before Bed: One of the most popular protein options for nighttime use due to its prolonged digestion profile.
