claim: Casein protein is a slow-releasing protein with great muscle fueling potential. It features properties that slowly release amino acids into the bloodstream to feed muscles.
other: It naturally provides key amino acids, such as glutamine and branched chain amino acids, so casein protein is excellent between meals and before bed for sustained amino acid delivery.
other: GNC Pro Performance(R) 100% Casein Protein provides support for powerful anti-catabolic signals for efficient muscle fuel.
The specially treated and delicate micro-fraction forms of micellar and calcium casein protein found in GNC Pro Performance(R) 100% Casein Protein release their glutamine-rich amino acids very slowly to the muscles.
claim: As an ideal nitrogen-fueling supplement, this casein formula delivers an effective formula to help fuel your muscles' previous supply of nitrogen, since your muscles can only grow when your body is in positive nitrogen balance.
other: GNC Pro Performance(R) 100% Casein Protein provides support for powerful anti-catabolic signals for efficient muscle fuel.
The specially treated and delicate micro-fraction forms of micellar and calcium casein protein found in GNC Pro Performance(R) 100% Casein Protein release their glutamine-rich amino acids very slowly to the muscles. The result is an unrivaled anti-catabolic effect. And it's this anti-catabolic effect on the muscles that ultimately leads to results! Quite simply-this formula works.
THE GNC PRO PERFORMANCE(R) 100% CASEIN PROTEIN QUALITY ADVANTAGE
claim: GNC researchers created a superior casein protein formula that delivers results and tastes great. Each serving mixes up instantly with a blender, shaker cup, or spoon for a creamy smooth shake-it's that easy!
other: Taste-tests prove GNC Pro Performance(R) 100% Casein Protein is our best testing casein protein formula ever!
claim: This chart compares the branched chain amino acid (BCAA) absorption after consuming casein and whey protein. When compared to whey, casein concentration was significantly lower after one hour, forty minutes, but increased after five hours.

*In a randomized, double-blind controlled study of sixteen healthy adults, subjects consumed either whey protein or casein containing equal amounts of leucine. While plasma branched chain amino acid (BCAA) levels were highest at 100 minutes post-supplementation in subjects who consumed whey protein, after 300 minutes (5 hours) BCAA levels were higher in subjects who consumed casein compared to those who took whey protein.
