Casein Protein Powder Dilemma
Question:
“Is it worth me buying a 2 pound of whey and a 2pound of casein protein, or should i just stick to a 5 lb of Whey and make sure i eat eggs/cheese daily?” -Tolerance
Answer:
I tend to suggest that people stay away from purchasing casein protein powder for many reasons. It is extremely tough to mix well as a shake, and often turns into a thick, clumpy mess that no bodybuilder should have to deal with. Also, casein protein is very abundant in common, everyday foods that are very economical to purchase.
Therefore, I suggest you just pick up 5 pounds of whey, and get your casein protein from real food sources. As discussed in the HardGainer’s Guide to Protein, I suggest you consume 1 cup of fat free cottage cheese before bed, as well as having a glass of 1% or skim milk with each meal.
