Micellar Casein | 1KG

Machine Supplements Micellar Casein is made in Australia from exclusively grass-fed Australian dairy cows. It undergoes an Ultrafiltration process ensuring a high protein, low fat product. Perfect for those wanting a slow-release of protein and amino acids (up to 8 hours) making it ideal to consume before bed for recovery during sleep. Alternatively, Micellar Casein can be consumed during the day to help minimise catabolism (muscle breakdown).

Exclusively from Australian Grass Fed Cows

Our protein comes exclusively from grass fed cows from Austraia. Australia has very strong dairy regulations, with no hormones used on the animals. The result is a high quality protein source.

Slow Digesting Protein

Humans digest Micellar Casein much slower than other proteins. Consuming a slow digesting protein such as Casein ensures that amino acid levels remain elevated in blood, even during long periods without foods such as when you are asleep or when you are between meals.

In his 2007 review of protein consumption, researcher Jay Hoffman notes that humans digest casein slowly over the course of several hours rather than in a couple hours like whey protein.

Prevents Muscle Catabolism

Casein has a strong anti-catabolic effect which is effective at retaining muscle mass during times of non-eating or during an athletes cutting (fatloss) phase.

Researchers from the Universite Clermont Auvergne in France examined the effects of slow and fast dietary proteins on muscle breakdown in healthy adults. Participants consumed a single meal rich in casein or whey protein, a fast-digesting protein. Scientists reported that casein protein inhibited whole body muscle breakdown by 34 percent.

Assists with fat loss or cutting

Casein can be an effective supplement for fat loss and weight management since it is low calorie but effective at satiating appetite. Casein is also an effective fat loss supplement as outlined in the study, "Comparison of 2 diets with Either 25% or 10% of Energy as Casein on Energy Expenditure, Substrate Balance, and Appetite Profile," from the March 2009 issue of the "American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,". An increased casein intake promotes a negative fat balance (increase in fat loss).

Appetite Suppression/Control

Micellar casein can help you manage your appetite because it is digested at a slower rate than other types of protein, so you will feel fuller for longer. Studies have shown that protein is effective at satiating appetite levels and that Casein is more effective than whey in this regard.

Promotes muscle gain

Casein can help you gain muscle, as it is rich in protein. Protein is the building block of muscles, so increasing your protein intake can be beneficial. Nutrition researcher Dr. John Berardi suggests consuming at least 2g of protein per kg of body weight each day to aid in muscle gain.
