what should i look for in a casein?

n88tr · 05-09-2008, 11:42 AM

i'm down to about 2 full scoops of my ON casein. I'm looking into getting some more. say i want to try a different brand than ON [the chocolate and vanilla flavors taste bad, imho], what should i look for in the ingredients or nutritional label for a quality casein powder?

i'm not interested in going with cottage cheese.

just stick with casein.

read labels, make an educated decision

n88tr · 05-09-2008, 12:04 PM

ok. i just hope ON makes other flavors than just those 2.

off topic: maybe i'm imagining it, but i've been off from noxplode for just 3 days and already my arm veins are a lot smaller. it's pretty scary, i think, that i've shrunk just from those few days.

YM123 · 05-09-2008, 12:16 PM

i very much doubt uv shrunk!!

**Zack** · 05-09-2008, 12:27 PM

^^^ cosign, you seriously need to start using common sense, it seems you seriously lack any. not trying to bash you or anything but you ask alot of questions that require basic common sense to answer

i picked up the banana cream and i love it
thats all i take the whey and casein
in banana cream from on maybe that will help you dude its good

The chocolate's consistency is definitely a little weird. I don't mind it too much, but . . yeah, if there is a better flavor I'd like to try it. I'm skeptical of anything that isn't chocolate.

I once got a variety box of Isopure, and had to finish such winning flavors a "Peanut Butter", "Vanilla Cream" and "Orange Creamcicle" . . I'm surprised I didn't vomit once.

creamcicle doesn't sound too bad, if it was a creatine or n.o. xplode. that's what Endorush Orange tastes like, and it's awesome

i couldnt even finish my tub of chocolate ON casein. i'd rather have syntha 6.

n88tr · 05-10-2008, 02:10 PM

idk syntha makes casein.

but if i could save a few bucks that'd be great. so when i get cottage cheese, just look for the one in highest protein and lowest fat and call it good?

**Zack** · 05-10-2008, 02:13 PM

what did u say?

I'm confused man.

Syntha is a mixture of all 3 wheys and a casein complex for a quick yet sustained release protein

You could use their new product NitroCore 24. It includes multiple protein sources(including casein) for sustained release of amino acids(similar to Syntha-6). This eliminates the need to purchase multiple protein products.

^I'm interested in these blends.

However, IMO I think the benefits of using 100% Whey and 100% Casein are evident. While I agree a blend could be beneficial, you aren't getting as much of each kind, and therefore overall it might not be as great. If you've got the money, buy them.
