Review: Functionality and flavor are both good - I have specific health needs that require a high-protein, low-calorie diet, and this protein powder works perfectly as a breakfast meal replacement. I typically mix one scoop with 12 oz of 2% Fairlife milk and 8 oz of cold brew, which totals around 40 grams of protein. On its own, it provides 22 grams of protein per serving, making it easy to use multiple times a day to meet macro goals, even with just water. The flavor isn’t too sweet, and it adds a nice richness without a chalky texture. It also keeps me full from breakfast until my 1:00 PM lunch, even when I start my workday at 8:30 AM. For best results, I recommend using a good mixer bottle. My favorite is the Helimix 22 oz. That said, the powder dissolves well and doesn’t clump, making it easy to mix. Overall, this is a great choice for anyone looking to add quality protein to their diet without unnecessary calories or unpleasant textures.
Review: Overall an excellent product I regularly buy - There is a biological difference between casein-based and whey-based protein. I find that whey protein is less viscous when mixed with the same qty. of liquid than casein, so depending on your preference you might want to consider adding 1-2 more oz. of your liquid, otherwise it can be a little pastey, similar to the consistency of drinkable yogurts. Having purchased other brands before, I find the Optimum Nutrition brand line to be more favorable for casein products. The creamy vanilla flavor doesn't taste as chemically as other brands, but it is a bit more sweet than other brands I previously tried. I overcome this by using about 9 oz. of cold coffee with which to mix with the powder. The combination between creamy vanilla and coffee is a quite balanced flavor, and if you use caffeinated coffee you get an extra jolt. Recognize that casein is not intended (ideally) to be used right after a strength workout, b/c of the organic nature of how casein slowly enters your bloodstream. I prefer to use it in the morning when I wake up to supplement a very light breakfast, which helps keep the edge off until lunch.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: why this product wont dissolve in milk? i shake it over 30 second and i can still taste the powder so thick**
A: There’s your problem, shake for 45 seconds. You’re leaving all those reps on the table. Remember, explosive out but a controlled return. 12 shake reps should take you 45 seconds if you’re doing it right. And breath. Contract. Feel the muscles. Quit leaving those reps on the table.

**Q: does this have gluten in it**
A: Although it maybe doesn't have gluten, people with gluten sensitivities or Celiac Disease should avoid the enzyme, Casein. I have Celiac Disease and this would "kill" me!

**Q: My container did not have a scoop in it. How much powder to I use for a shake?**
A: It's approximately a 1/4 of a cup (not exactly), but I'd bet there's a scoop in the bottom of the container somewhere, they sometimes sink to the bottom of the container...  It's placed in these containers by a computer system, not a person so chances of a mistake are minimal.

**Q: Does anyone know if this is 100% Micellar?**
A: No, it has calcium caseinate as the second protein source.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tasty and Gentle Protein Supplement
*by B***A on June 22, 2024*

I tried Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Casein Powder for about a few months now, and overall, I'm quite pleased with it. While I was a bit disappointed that the container wasn't completely filled, the powder itself exceeded my expectations in other areas. It tastes really good, especially when mixed with lactose free milk, soy or oat milk, it doesn't cause any stomach discomfort, which is a big plus for me. The sustained release of protein throughout the night has helped in my muscle recovery after workouts. Despite the initial concern about the quantity, the quality and effectiveness of the product make it a worthwhile purchase. If you're looking for a protein supplement that tastes great, is gentle on the stomach, and supports muscle recovery, give Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Casein Powder a try.
