    Product Description

    Overview

    Product Description

    Faster digesting protein is desirable immediately before and after exercise to help refuel recovering muscles, but slow digestion and absorption may be more beneficial at other times including bedtime when your body typically goes for hours without food. Casein products are acid sensitive and thicken in the stomach. Compared to some other proteins, it can take longer for our Gold Standard 100% Casein to be broken down into its amino acid subcomponents. By using only premium micellar casein as a protein source, we've created a formula that sets the standard for slow digesting protein support.

    Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein offers the slow-digesting protein essential for facilitating muscle recovery and preventing muscle breakdown. Rapid-protein use is desirable immediately before and after exercise to help refuel recovering muscles. However, delayed digestion and absorption may be more beneficial at other times, including bedtime, when your body typically goes for hours without food. Casein proteins are acid sensitive and thicken in the stomach. Because of this, it can take more than twice as long for Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Natural 100% Casein to be broken down into its amino acid subcomponents than other proteins. This natural version of the industry's first all-micellar casein contains no artificial flavors or sweeteners.

    Customer Questions & Answers

    • Question: is this NSF approved?

      Answer: The product is Banned Substance Tested by world-class sports anti-doping lab LGC Limited and made at Optimum Nutrition's facilities in Aurora, Illinois, USA that are GMP Registered and GMP for Sport by NSF.
    • Question: how many grams of sugar does it have per serving? what sweetener does it have?

      Answer: 4 grams sugar, honey powder, cane juice, stevia
    • Question: The bottle says it contains ingredients of international origin. Which ingredient is from which country?

      Answer: Some of the whey protein comes from Ireland. There may be other ingredients from other countries, but whey makes up the majority of the formula.
    • Question: thinkin bout mixing "on" half casein / half whey , like a matrix of fast & slow proteins. wondering if anyone has tried this and results ????

      Answer: I do not think it is a good idea. This product has a high amount of tryptophan so you sleep at night while the slow acting protein is renuritioning the muscles. Add more whey/protein will keep you awake. During the day, because of the high amount of tryptophan will cause groggyness. Once I tried thus product during the day and I was groggy all day. Probably there is a product all ready formulated. Better to get a formulated product than trying to make you own.
    • Question: If I bought one right now, what's the expiration date?

      Answer: Im not sure but I guess it's at lease like one year anaways this is a really good protein with no side effects I'm pretty sure you will finish it before the expiration date!
    • Question: What product replaced platinum hydro builder

      Answer: garden of life, organic plant based protein and ON gold standard plant
    • Question: Other questions ask about ingredients and both answers are not right. there is no ingredient list showing the sweetener used?

      Answer: Naturally Flavored GOLD STANDARD 100% CASEIN is sweetened with honey powder, sugar and stevia.
    • Question: Is this help for sleep fast? Like the sleep aid?

      Answer: Not for me.
    • Question: Does it contain now stevia? It did not used to?

      Answer: Yes, the naturally flavored version of GOLD STANDARD 100% CASEIN pictured at left is sweetened with stevia.
    • Question: Just opened sealed canister and I see White particles inside my chocolate casein protein powder. Is that the sugar or salt or something else?

      Answer: I have used this priduct for years and never encountered any white particles.

    Good product, wrong number of servings
    I like the powder itself, no complaints there, but the container I got was only 49 servings when it’s advertised as 68 servings. In the past I’ve always gotten 48-serving containers, so I’m not sure if 68 serving containers actually exist or not

    Slow and steady wins the race.
    Ive been taking protein for a few decades now, and it seems like protein at a slower absorption is way better for your body than the quick stuff. Sometimes the body takes its time, maybe doesnt like to be force fed and good quality Casein is better. Im not working out as hard but I did build more muscle and the only factor that different in my diet is slower absorbing protein taken at night. Seem like a good combo when youre sleeping as the natural GH does its work as well.

    DO NOT TAKE IF YOU HAVE DIVERTICULOSIS!!!
    Didn’t seem fair to lower the stars because it’s still a good product, and the only one I could find that doesn’t use artificial sweeteners that upset my stomach. But DO NOT take this if you have diverticulosis. Casein’s whole thing is it’s muddy, sticky, and hard to digest to slowly release protein. After taking this for 2 weeks I was in the hospital with full blown diverticulitis. 100% positive this was the cause.

    I love the taste.
    Good stuff! Mixes well for Casein.

    Higher price for same product
    I loved this product for years, have bought it as prices gradually increased over the years, however the price has jumped from the $70’s to $90’s in a year. $91.99? No, it’s not worth it anymore.

    Great protein powder
    I use Optimum Nutrition protein powder more than any other. I love how well it blends, tastes, and how it works. However I will say I am not as big of a fan of this new chocolate versus the old chocolate supreme. I am not the biggest chocolate lover to begin with. But chocolate supreme was better tasting. Overall still a great protein powder.

    Poor taste
    I've used a few On products before but this flavor just tastes bad to me. I eat like a complete dog too. Given all the other reviews, I'm wondering if there is some variation in the flavor by batch. Otherwise I find it hard to believe this flavor appeals to 8k+ normal human beings. I take it right before bed and wake up slightly less hungry at a given calorie level, so it seems to work in that respect.
