Dymatize Nutrition Dymatize Elite Casein

Frequently asked questions

What protein does it use?

It uses 100% micellar casein. That is the slow-digesting milk protein. Each serving gives 25 g protein and about 5.4 g BCAAs, including 2.3 g leucine. It has 0 g sugar and under 130 calories.

Why take casein rather than whey?

Casein gives off amino acids slowly over several hours. So it is popular before bed or between meals. Whey is taken in fast and suits the window around training. Many people keep both.

Is it certified for banned substances?

Yes. It carries Informed Choice. LGC's anti-doping lab tests it against the WADA banned list. So the batch is checked for substances on that list.

Is it suitable for vegetarians or the lactose-intolerant?

It is a dairy (milk) protein. So it suits vegetarians but not vegans. Casein has some lactose. If you are lactose-intolerant, check how you cope against a whey isolate, which is usually lower.

Where can I buy it in the UK?

We track one UK listing. It is Amazon UK. Check the tub size and live price on the listing before you buy.
