Slow digesting protein

[Kibble]

I have been looking at Casein protein, but find it rather expensive for the low amount of servings. The concept is simple. Slow-digesting protein to feed your muscles overnight. Now let's say, if you consumed regular whey with something like peanut butter, would it bind together and provide the same benefit? If not peanut butter, is there anything that the protein can mend with to become longer digesting? I hate the idea of forcing myself to wake up halfway through my sleep to consume a shake. I always havea hard time getting back to sleep. I don't believe in newb questions. I don't believe in stupid questions either. I was just wondering. I was always afraid of fats until I came to this website. I limited my fats to about 20g a day, and it got me nowhere. I felt like crap in general as well. If this belongs in the diet section, I apologize. Just figured it could go here since I started off with casein

cottage cheese....

[Kibble]

Oh hell no lol. Lactose intolerant. Last thing I need to do is shit my pants in my sleep lol

[energizer bunny]

youll prob just be better off getting the caesin....you only need to use it once a day....so with the caesin i had thats 30 days..

[Kibble]

Alright I may just do it. Thanks

[energizer bunny]

i thought this my self..mixing whey with an oil would make it slower..BUT i was wrong! LOL.....cant remember were i read it tho...

[Kibble]

I thought it made sense too lol. I was just boredand brainstorming. I am at work right now, and it is 359am

a few people talk about london broil being good for eating b4 sleep as it is slow digesting.

lean red meat and fish oil.

done.

[MuscleScience]

Just take in a whey protein shake before bed. There is enough aminos to keep the Amino Acid Pool (theoretical) reserves high over night.

[Kibble]

Alright. I am sure that fir the price of casein, I can get plenty of lean red meat. Thanks

why dont you get a mixed protein and just use it for everything?

exactly what i have been doing, 6oz is small portion but plenty of nutrients.

[POPS]

I have about 2C of ground beef ( 90/10 ) and fish oil. I skip the cottage cheese cause of the sugar and the casein cause of the $$....

How many scoops of protein (grams) are you taking before bed?

[Kibble]

As of now, before bed I will take 1 scoop, and have some very light carbs right before bed. I never take more than one scoop at a time anymore. About 9 months ago I was taking 2 scoops before bed, and post workout. I gained too much weight, too fast doing that

[RANA]

I also do one scoop of casien protien before bed

[Kibble]

I wish I could go higher with protein at night without getting too big. I gain strength like crazy. Recovery is better, and I feel better. Only problem is- I gain fat as well

[RANA]

Cut your carbs at night

[Kibble]

About what time? 5 hours before bed? I thought that my muscles need carbs to synthesize protein

[RANA]

I try about 3-4 hours before bed and those are minimal carbs, most of my carbs are early in the day

[Kibble]

Yeah at night with my nighttime shake I will either eat a half slice of breat, or maybe like 4 tablespoons of oats. If that is keeping me fat then I will definately stop

[kalspic]

try veggies for your carb source.
