Casein protein is the main phosphor protein that accounts for approximately 90 per cent of protein in cheese and milk. Casein is derived from the Latin word 'caseus' meaning cheese. Often, bodybuilders use it because it slowly digests amino acids present in it. It is gradually becoming popular because of its great absorption properties.
Protein present in your food helps in building the tissues and muscles. It is very essential to include the right amount of protein in your diet. It is important for bodybuilders to have high protein intake. Various protein powder supplements like soy, whey and casein are beneficial if you blend them with a large variety of other kinds of protein sources.

Quick digesting whey protein has been a commercial success. According to recent studies, the longer it takes for a protein to get digested, the more efficiently body absorbs the nutrients. This makes casein an excellent source of protein for all recovery purposes. Casein also consists of high amount of glutamine which plays an important role in recovery from exercise.
The cow milk consists of 80 per cent casein and the remaining is whey protein. Casein is extracted from the cow's milk without the use of any chemical. The process called ultra-filtration increases the amount of bioactive milk peptides, thereby enhancing muscle growth and providing immunity. It also contains strong anti- catabolic effect, which is not found in other types of protein sources.
Another property of this kind of protein is that it leads to the formation of a clot in the stomach, hence resulting in a continual release of amino acids into the blood stream lasting for many hours. This helps in preventing muscle breakdown because it has no or little effect on protein synthesis, and therefore helps in bodybuilding.
Casein is highly effective if consumed before going to bed. The reason is that it takes time to soak up and thus supports your body without food for seven to eight hours during sleep. During these sleeping hours, your body is provided with right amount of amino acids.
Experts suggest that you can take it after workouts to meet the instant need for protein. It will not store in your body as fat because it takes longer time to digest it. You may encounter some minor side effects such as stomach discomfort because of higher sodium and lactose contents.
There are three main types of casein protein namely micellar casein, milk protein isolate and calcium caseinate. Of all these three types of proteins, calcium caseinate is of the lowest quality. Micellar protein is made from 100 per cent casein, whereas milk protein isolate consists of both whey and micellar protein. This type of protein is highly popular among athletes and bodybuilders.
