Pure Micellar Casein 500 g

BodyWorld Pure Micellar Casein is a premium micellar casein protein with a creamy chocolate flavour, primarily intended as a night-time protein before bed. Due to its naturally slow absorption, it creates a gel-like structure in the digestive tract that gradually releases amino acids over several hours. One serving (32 g) contains 25.5 g of protein, contributing to muscle growth and maintenance. The formula is enriched with L-glutamine (2 g) and DigeZyme® digestive enzymes (50 mg) for better protein utilisation. It is suitable for athletes and active people during long intervals between meals.

The best time to take it is before sleep, as casein is absorbed slowly, providing muscles with a steady supply of amino acids throughout the night. However, it can also be used during the day during longer breaks between meals when the body needs a long-term protein source. Unlike whey protein, it is not ideal immediately after training, where a faster-absorbing protein is preferred. One 32 g serving mixed in 220–250 ml of water or milk provides 25.5 g of protein.

The main difference is the absorption rate – casein, like BodyWorld Pure Micellar Casein, is absorbed slowly and forms a gel-like structure in the digestive tract, releasing amino acids over several hours. Whey protein, on the other hand, is absorbed quickly, making it better suited for use immediately after training. Casein is therefore more suitable before sleep or during longer breaks between meals when the body requires a long-term supply of protein.

Yes, the product contains milk and is made from micellar casein isolate derived from milk. It therefore contains lactose, although casein isolates generally have a lower lactose content than, for example, whey concentrate. The product is not suitable for those with an allergy to cow's milk protein or for vegans. Those with lactose intolerance should consume the product with caution or consult a doctor.

No, this product is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians sensitive to animal products, as the main ingredient is micellar casein isolate from milk. It is a purely animal-based protein source containing milk proteins and trace amounts of lactose.

L-glutamine (2 g per serving) is an amino acid that supports muscle recovery and proper immune system function, which is particularly important during overnight recovery. DigeZyme® is a complex of digestive enzymes (50 mg per serving) that helps break down proteins and improves their absorption and utilisation by the body. This combination helps to reduce the feeling of heaviness after consuming a shake before sleep.

The difference is primarily in the number of servings and the price per serving. The 500 g pack contains 15 servings, while the 1800 g pack provides a significantly higher number of servings with the same formula and nutritional values. The larger pack is generally more cost-effective for regular users who consume casein daily.

One serving (32 g) contains 103 kcal, 25.5 g of protein, 0.5 g of fat (of which 0.3 g is saturated), 0.6 g of carbohydrates (of which 0.4 g is sugar) and 0.2 g of salt.

Yes, casein protein can be combined with other supplements such as creatine, BCAA, or multivitamins, as it does not contain stimulants or ingredients that interact with common supplements. Due to its slow absorption, it is not recommended to use it as a replacement for fast-absorbing protein immediately post-workout.

The product is suitable for athletes and active individuals who want to supplement high-quality protein and support muscle recovery overnight or during longer intervals between meals. It is not suitable for vegans or those with a milk protein allergy.

The product composition does not list wheat, barley, rye, or other gluten sources among the ingredients. The only listed allergen is milk and milk-based products. However, individuals with coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity should check the packaging directly, as cross-contamination can occur during manufacturing depending on the production facility.
