The Truth About Casein Protein Supplements 

Spot on bro!

Seriously

Preach brutha, I used several supplements and I use glutamine and protein and that’s the best for me

Facts

Seriously, I tried back in late 2014 for a bulk season and I added on size from 185 to 205lbs

Iol

My thoughts exactly

💯. I noticed eating chicken before bed gave me a huge pump in the morning similar to when I take protein shakes overnight after working kut

I’m new to the whole protein scene, what about some of us that just want to shed access fat and not build a lot of muscle. Would a casein be sufficient for breakfast instead of having a protein shake that adds mass?

@@jesusvargas841 Your not going to add muscle mass just by eating protein. You have to apply resistance thats not easy. You can eat 500 g of protein a day, but if your not lifting to failure or close to failure, the protein just increases thermogenesis and you will lose bf and piss a lot out. Carbs are what add mass to existing muscle. If your goal is leaning out and maintaining muscle just eat lots of protein. Thermogenesis is key

@@jesusvargas841 If you just want to shed weight, you can easily just do cardio and eat properly. You wouldn’t need casein for that. And there is no differentiation between casein and protein shakes. All protein does the same thing, they’re just digested at different rates. Whey is better than casein because it is more bioavailable and fast digesting. Protein does build muscle, but it can also maintain muscle, and also help you lose weight. What the protein does depends strictly on your workout regime and eating habits. If your diet is already full of protein, fats, and carbs and you take those shakes, it will cause weight gain (fat, not muscle) if you’re not burning those calories off. Supplements should never replace Whole Foods. Since you want to lose weight, you need to be in a calorie deficit. You could do a high protein and low fat diet. Also protein shakes don’t really add mass unless you’re working out. And with mass you have muscle mass and also fat mass. If you’re taking protein and not working out (and also getting plenty protein from the diet), that’ll turn into fat. However, if you’re working out and taking protein, you can both lose weight and gain muscle. Rather you build muscle depends on the type of exercises you do, (cardio tones more than builds muscle). Diet helps you cut weight.,

@@adriandoesyoutube8092 thanks 🙏 a million! 🙌🏽

he's right eat like an animal and take supps(creatine, fish oil, multi, pre, protein) and plenty of sleep

Pretty sure the steroids are doing more than the pork he's eating

@@beirutbastard3878 you still need to eat well to get jackedd even on steroids so his advice is probably good

thats not for 99% of guys...everyone has different routines...

That's nonsense 😂

If you want to build muscles don't work at nights.Night shifts are killing you biological cycle and your body can't synthesise the protein efficiently.You can't even have deep sleep at days more than 2-3 hours.

@@beslemeto that's not entirely true. I have seen growth over the last few months, maybe not as fast but you do get progress. I cycle on and off of nights though, when i go back to days i see insane progress almost over night, so that could be why as well.

@@ken-yv3id You probably at your 20's.When you are young you don't see much difference.And if you are on and off it is ok...

Fast digesting protein raises your glucose levels like simple carbs ?

so ? u have to be ripped to know something ? get a brain

@@TheRealGuitarGamer you're probably one of those sheeps that take health advice from a person who's overweight and eats poorly..and then you're wondering why I'm not reaching my goals..same concept..

@@davidwaters619 you lack any education on supplements so Im not gonna waste my time on you.

@@TheRealGuitarGamer lol yea you think you know what you're talking about, but you clearly don't...thank you, you did me favor by just stopping where you're at

@@davidwaters619 you think you know everything. YOU DONT

@NillocWolf i sleep with a fan on.

@NillocWolf what is that like a racist comment? Huh?

@NillocWolf lmao he said racist 😭😭😭😩😩😂😂😂😂 white noise id racist I guess

@@sethrich89 Do you ever fucking go outside you? No idea I could meet people dumber than my ass

@@sethrich89 White noise is sound

Me too and science already explained why: Digestion actually makes you drowsy, like after a heavy meal because your body allocates most of your energy to breaking down food.

i eat too much, i cant sleep. I dont eat at all, i also cant sleep

Yeah it be hella hard to sleep on a empty stomach 😂😂😂

What about the use for knock off real ice-cream and using casein instead of whey ?

Drink it RIGHT before bed. Do not listen to these idiots it will not disrupt your sleep... the opposite it true because you go into bed with a full stomach and can asleep more easily.

It might be better but Thats a terrible reason

I thought the opposite lol I think it depends on the brands

No, food has a thermic effect and therefore raises our body temperature. In order to sleep, our body has to lower its core temperature. It's truly simple and there is undeniably a consensus about this in the scientific world. Your first point is irrelevant, the second one is false.

@@TDV147 Could you link a reliable study to back this up? Since everything I've read on the subject leads to the two points I've made.

@@BigShippy0 The thing is, I'm not saying food does not get digested better when asleep. It's just not really relevant to what they are trying to say here. Also, yes people get sleepy after a big meal (varies per person) because their digestive system actually starts to go to work. But getting drowsy after dinner does not mean being able to go to sleep, and even if it does for some people, the point is still that eating before bed or during the night might skew your circadian rhythm, which is of far greater importance than getting another protein shake into your system. Also, you can do as much research as you like on the thermic effect of food.

good to hear this lol i’ve just started taking casein and have noticed more spots and bigger gains was so scared it was tainted 😭

I do the same thing with the fiber. I add inulin or fructo oligosaccharides. I also add a lot of chicory powder. Casein unflavored powder.Some Acacia fiber as well.Get some satiety. Feed my microbiome. Get some good quality amino acids for muscle building. All that good stuff.

I'm lactose intolerant but I tolerate whey fine. Casein gives me terrible acne and is harder for me to digest. BUT I recall the biggest strength gains in my gym rat career coming after i was given 5lbs of casien to try. I felt like I was on steroids or something between the gains and the acne lmao. I take a lot of collagen and hemp protien these days. They may be good alternatives. I get them both pretty cheap in the bulk bins of my health food store.

@@misterbulger im lactose intolerant too. i can take butter and yogurt but not large amount of cheese or milk. which type of protein and protein brand would you recommend i get?... ive been struggling to find something. for now I've been using whey isolate.

@@hahgotem9466 I do grass fed whey isolate (Levels brand) or grass fed or marine collagen mostly. Also lots of fat free no sugar added Greek yogurt. (Oikos Triple Zero or O% Fage are my go-tos) Occasionally grass fed butter (Kerrigold). For cheese I do 2% American since it's barely even cheese lol

It honestly doesn’t matter as long as you get enough protein

Casein

I get horny from it

Maybe its the workout you do that makes your testosterone levels higher?

testerone/libido boosts from weight lifting and protein I believe

Same. I just take it out on the wife.

Yes!

The Optimum Nutrition Casein that I am using atm has Magnesium and Zinc

​@@SolidGeddoeso does cacoa butter minus the 💩 fat

Same

All the food that replaced the whey is slow digesting, just like caseine.

it's called the placebo effect i think.

Blood to facilitate organs to digest*

Real

Did you experience any kind of acne problems or anything? And how long have you been using them? I'm kinda riddled on what to do

@@aaron4966 I've only been using casein recently for the last year. I haven't had any acne problems myself. I'm 35 now, so past my real prime, but I've put on a little over 2 inches to my arms a lot faster than I did in my late teens and early 20s when I only did creatine and whey.

@@aaron4966 oh I should also add back in my younger days without casein I was hitting each muscle group an optimal 2-3 times a week. Now with casein I'm really only getting each group once a week. Life, bleh

@@aaron4966 you have to try it for yourself lol I took casein and I didn’t have any acne what so ever . Everybody body is different

@@potentatewags u saying the casein made u lazy or wha?

yeah seems like total bs. its not like your body instantly absorbs all they whey protein you drink. that takes time and their should be whey protein in your poop as your digestion is not 100% efficient

It's very dangerous to your health, anything more than 20 seconds before sleep can be fatal. What I've been told

Lol when people saying taking casein before bed , it means at least 30 mins - 1 hour before . Not literally right before .

Was there additives in it ? Probably wouldn't be the same with 100%native whey

I mean it’s part of milk, are you lactose intolerant?

Hey, do you know will Casein mess with my hormones because I heard milk is estrogenic?

@@poiuztrewqlkjhgfdsa4984 depends on the casein you’re using too I use ascent protein, one of the best out on the market

@@poiuztrewqlkjhgfdsa4984 Yes, casein will turn you right into a biological female if you're not careful.

If you're not worried about fat gain, what is the problem with spiking insulin?

@@zeno4538 Because sharp insulin spikes over time will lead to insulin resistance, which leads to a whole bunch of health problems. Basically increases your chances of dying from just about everything health related. The performance increase and recovery is honestly negligible for anyone who isn't a professional athlete. A casual lifter gains nothing from it except an excuse to eat like shit "because insulin makes you recover faster."

@@harleyzeth insulin resistance isn't caused by insulin spikes. Otherwise every human not on keto would get it. Every time you eat carbs it spikes your insulin.

@@harleyzeth insulin spikes aren't intrinsically bad, it's only bad if it makes you over eat combined with not enough exercise.

Wouldn’t. Casein spike insulin ? Wick will inhibit the gh realse
