Product Information
Full details
Pure Casein by Bodybuilding Warehouse is a premium micellar casein protein powder designed for individuals seeking a slow-digesting protein source to support muscle growth and recovery over extended periods. Its key benefit is the sustained release of amino acids, making it ideal for overnight use or as a between-meal snack. A potential consideration is that some flavors, like Chocolate, may have slightly lower protein content due to added ingredients.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of using Pure Casein Protein?
The primary benefit is its ultra-slow digestion rate, which provides a sustained release of amino acids to your muscles over several hours, supporting recovery and minimizing muscle breakdown, especially overnight.
When is the best time to take Pure Casein Protein?
It is most effective when taken 30 minutes before bed or as a between-meal snack. This timing leverages its slow-digesting properties for continuous nutrient supply.
How much protein is in one serving?
One 25g serving contains approximately 18.44g of protein (as is). Per 100g, it provides about 73.75g of protein (as is).
Does Pure Casein Protein contain soy?
Yes, it contains less than 1% soy derived from Soy Lecithin, which is used as an instantising agent. It also contains milk ingredients.
Are all flavors the same nutritionally?
Nutritional values are based on the Vanilla version. Other flavors may vary slightly. For example, Chocolate flavors are around 3% lower in protein per 100g due to the addition of cocoa powder.
Can I use Pure Casein Protein after a workout?
While it provides essential amino acids, its slow digestion makes it less ideal for immediate post-workout recovery compared to faster-digesting proteins like whey. It's better suited for sustained release benefits.
How many servings are in the 2kg tub?
A 2kg tub contains approximately 80 servings, based on a 25g serving size.
Troubleshooting
Protein shake is clumpy or difficult to mix.
Ensure you add the powder to the shaker *before* the liquid. Shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds. If issues persist, try using slightly less powder or a shaker with a mixing ball.
Product seems less effective than expected.
Verify that you are using the correct serving size and timing it appropriately (e.g., before bed or between meals). Ensure the product is stored correctly to maintain quality.
Experiencing digestive discomfort.
While generally easy to digest due to slow-release properties, some individuals may react to ingredients. Try reducing the serving size or consult with a healthcare professional if discomfort is persistent.
