While fast-absorbing proteins are most effective before or after exercise, slow-release proteins are at their best during the rest of the day. In fact, casein is the most abundant protein even in milk, and studies consider it a high quality protein because it is easily assimilated and supplies the body with a large amount of prolonged release amino acids over time.
Sometimes slower is better, especially when it comes to protein digestion. While rapid absorption just before or after exercise is desirable, a delayed release is likely to be more beneficial during the rest of the day.
Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it may take more than twice as much to break down caseins into amino acid subcomponents than whey or other proteins. Thanks to their qualities in terms of prolonged release, caseins are duly described as anti-catabolic or muscle-protective proteins.
