Optimum Nutrition Casein

[powerhungry1]

Question,

I recently purchased this protein for the first time because I read that it metabolizes slowly. I didn't realize it was mean to be taken before bed for slow release while sleeping, but I have been using it during the day anyway (and occasionally at bed).

What I have found is that it works well for me before going to the gym to minimize hunger over the duration of my workout (which usually starts with 1000 calories of cardio before heading off to the weights).

Has anyone else had positive experiences using casein at times other than bed?

I used to use Syntha six which is a blend of 6 types of protein. I used mainly post-workout and before bed-time and occasionaly in the early morning sometimes where i overslept and didn't have time for proper breakfast, It works up pretty good. Same effects with you.

I've only used Optimum Whey protein, but I love it. I just mix it with milk to get a blend with another form of protein.
