NIGHT PROTEINS - CASEINS

Caseinis a protein that, together with whey, is obtained from the milk of mammals. Most people consume casein in the form of cow's milk. This is because it is a solid insoluble part of milk, which makes up approximately 80% of milk proteins. The soluble part of milk and the remaining 20% is whey. Casein isalso an integral part of cheese production. It has the ability to change its consistency to a gel and therefore acts as a binder. In the digestion process, casein gels after contact with stomach acid. This reduces the rate of casein digestion and allows for a slower, more stable and more efficient release of amino acids. A slow digestion rate is also beneficial because it increases the feeling of satiety
