Review: good value - Happy with the quality of the protein powder. plus i actually enjoy the taste. would recommend
Review: Functionality and flavor are both good - I have specific health needs that require a high-protein, low-calorie diet, and this protein powder works perfectly as a breakfast meal replacement. I typically mix one scoop with 12 oz of 2% Fairlife milk and 8 oz of cold brew, which totals around 40 grams of protein. On its own, it provides 22 grams of protein per serving, making it easy to use multiple times a day to meet macro goals, even with just water. The flavor isn’t too sweet, and it adds a nice richness without a chalky texture. It also keeps me full from breakfast until my 1:00 PM lunch, even when I start my workday at 8:30 AM. For best results, I recommend using a good mixer bottle. My favorite is the Helimix 22 oz. That said, the powder dissolves well and doesn’t clump, making it easy to mix. Overall, this is a great choice for anyone looking to add quality protein to their diet without unnecessary calories or unpleasant textures.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: why this product wont dissolve in milk? i shake it over 30 second and i can still taste the powder so thick**
A: There’s your problem, shake for 45 seconds. You’re leaving all those reps on the table. Remember, explosive out but a controlled return. 12 shake reps should take you 45 seconds if you’re doing it right. And breath. Contract. Feel the muscles. Quit leaving those reps on the table.

**Q: does this have gluten in it**
A: Although it maybe doesn't have gluten, people with gluten sensitivities or Celiac Disease should avoid the enzyme, Casein. I have Celiac Disease and this would "kill" me!

**Q: My container did not have a scoop in it. How much powder to I use for a shake?**
A: It's approximately a 1/4 of a cup (not exactly), but I'd bet there's a scoop in the bottom of the container somewhere, they sometimes sink to the bottom of the container...  It's placed in these containers by a computer system, not a person so chances of a mistake are minimal.

**Q: Does anyone know if this is 100% Micellar?**
A: No, it has calcium caseinate as the second protein source.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential part of recovery
*by B***N on October 31, 2018*

For too long I had relied solely on whey protein to help build muscle, especially after intense work outs. It definitely helped, but often times I would wake up the morning after not feeling that much better. In other words, I wasn't really recovering that well. I considered just doubling up on the whey, basically eating another serving before bed, but then I did some research. I figured it would benefit me to alternate the types of protein supplement, and when I added the Optimum Nutrition Casein protein, it was a game changer. I now wake up in the morning feeling back to 100%. Even though I never train the same muscle groups two days in a row, I feel as if I could. I am making a 100% recovery in less than half the time. As a side benefit, the stuff tastes amazing. I mix mine with soy milk (yeah, I drink soy, get over it) and shot of light cream, after reading that a modest amount of fats help the body absorb large amounts of protein. Anyways, the vanilla is a very deep and satisfying flavor. To change it up I sometimes add some cinnamon powder, or some nutmeg and ground clove. On top of that, I eat it just before bed, and I am never super hungry in the morning, and I have eliminated my midnight snack routine. I use a hand crank egg beater to mix this stuff up, because even a little bit quickly turns into a thick mixture, sort of like wet concrete. It needs way more liquid to dissolve into than whey protein powder. Sometimes I also throw in some Greek style yogurt, but this stuff is thick enough already. The labeling says something about how Casein behaves differently when it hits the acid in the stomach, and that it expands, and you see this when you mix it up. If you have been missing something in the protein department, I would absolutely try this Casein. PROS: + Tastes awesome. + Fills you up, you feel satisfied, and won't be hungry for quite a while after. + A little powder goes a long way. + Slow absorption. CONS: - More expensive than most whey protein powders, but that's common to Casein.
