Peak Micellar Casein 1kg Chocolate

Peak Micellar Casein, also available in chocolate flavor, provides a sustained release of amino acids and is optimized with the enzyme lactase.
Duration of amino acid release:
Micellar casein is known for its slow digestion, allowing for a continuous supply of amino acids to the muscles for up to 8 hours. Some sources even suggest a release of up to 7 or 12 hours. This time-releasing formula makes it an ideal protein for consumption before bed or to bridge longer periods without protein intake.
Benefits of the lactase enzyme:
Peak Micellar Casein is optimized with the enzyme lactase. Lactase helps break down lactose (milk sugar). This is particularly beneficial for people with lactose intolerance, as it facilitates digestion and reduces potential digestive discomfort.

Peak Micellar Casein is especially recommended for consumption before bedtime to continuously supply the body with amino acids throughout the night and support muscle regeneration. It is also excellent for bridging longer periods without protein intake. As a dietary protein, micellar casein is characterized by its slow and steady digestion, which leads to a long-lasting feeling of satiety. This property helps control cravings and support the maintenance of muscle mass during a diet by slowing down the breakdown of muscle protein. It is also low in fat and carbohydrates. The gentle filtration process preserves valuable bioactive peptides and the natural micelle structure of the casein, contributing to slower absorption. Peak Micellar Casein is also enriched with the enzyme lactase, which facilitates digestion.

The bioactive peptides contained in Peak Micellar Casein play a vital role in regeneration, as they fulfill specific physiological functions beyond simply supplying amino acids. These functions support muscle tissue recovery and strengthen the immune system after intense exertion. Their unique structure promotes the absorption of essential minerals and exerts anti-catabolic effects, ensuring long-term muscle maintenance and growth, and optimizing regeneration phases, particularly during the night. The integrated vitamin complex makes a significant contribution to overall health by supporting fundamental metabolic processes and helping to reduce fatigue. Among other things, the vitamins act as antioxidants to protect cells from oxidative stress and promote the normal function of the immune and nervous systems, which is especially important for athletes to maintain physical performance and general well-being.

Peak Micellar Casein differs from conventional whey protein primarily in its significantly thicker and creamier consistency. While whey protein remains rather thin in water, casein binds liquid very well, giving the shake a pudding-like or milkshake-like texture that provides longer-lasting satiety.
