What are the benefits of using Optimum Nutrition 100% Casein Gold Standard Protein Powder?
Optimum Nutrition 100% Casein Gold Standard Protein Powder is the highest quality casein protein on the market. Studies have been demonstrating the amazing effectiveness of casein protein for a number of fitness-based benefits including the following:
Protein synthesis
With the steady stream of amino acids over hours, the body is able to engage in a higher level of protein synthesis. This creates the perfect anabolic environment for muscle growth.
Protects Muscle Tissue
Amino acids that are circulating in the muscle tissue help to protect from breakfast or a catabolic environment.
Suppresses Appetite
Once ingested, casein protein forms a slow digesting gel in the stomach. This gel releases amino acids over the course of hours, helping to avoid unnecessary cravings. (1)

Consume approximately 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day through a combination of high protein foods and supplements. For best results, consume your daily protein allotment over several small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
Shaker: Using a shaker cup is the easiest way and most convenient way to mix up a consistently great casein shake every time. Just add one heaping scoop of Gold Standard 100% Casein™ to your shaker cup and them pour in 10-12 oz of your preferred beverage. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds. Tip: Adjust the intensity of your Hold Standard 100% Casein™ by varying the amount of liquid that you use to prepare it. For a bolder flavor with slightly more body and sweetness, mix one heaping scoop with 8-10 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. For a middle tasting, less sweet shake, use 12-14 oz of liquid per scoop.
Blender: Add one heaping scoop of Gold Standard 100% Casein™ to a blender filled with 10-12 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Blend for 20-30 seconds. Then add 3-4 ice cubes and blend for an additional 30 seconds. Shake Up Your Shake: By adding a few high energy ingredients to your shake you can blend up a delicious meal: try adding fresh or frozen fruits (strawberries, bananas, peaches, etc.) peanut butter, flaxseed oil, yogurt, coconut, silvered almonds, or other ingredients. Stack Your Shake: By adding supplements like Micronized Creatine, Glutamine, Taurine, and/or Instantized BCAA powders, you can make Gold Standard 100% Casein an even more powerful post-workout recover product.
Spoon Stirred: If you forgot your shaker cup or dont have time to get out the blender, you can just add one heaping scoop of Gold Standard 100% Casein™ to a glass filled with 10-12 oz of cold water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Then mix it up with a spoon for about 30 seconds or until powder is dissolved.
