Elite Casein helps to keep your muscles supplied with a steady stream of amino acids, the building blocks of muscle protein.
Sustained-Absorbing 100% Micellar Casein
Casein is a unique protein derived from milk that breaks down more slowly in the digestive system which increases satiety and provides a slower release of muscle-building amino acids. So if your goal is to build muscle or avoid muscle protein breakdown in between meals or during sleep, Elite Casein is an excellent protein choice.
Elite Casein uses a cross-flow microfiltration processing to help preserve the natural state of casein protein’s important muscle building properties.
Elite Casein is formulated by in-house research and development scientist by carefully selecting ingredients that meet strict quality standards and specifications.
All Elite Casein flavors are developed in-house so they are a delicious way to support those gains and your hard work. Instantized formulas provide easy mixing, ensuring that you get world class taste and a smooth, rich consistent in every casein shake.

Very tasty, great for any time of day. Only slight problem, for me, is that it’s a little thicker than whey protein, which bothers me if I happen to be feeling a little queasy. But, it’s a very small complaint, especially when this stuff tastes like chocolate milk and not tree bark, like so many other brands.
Peter L –
This is my first casein protein powder, I take it before bed usually. The main drawback is the flavor, I like the chocolate but you definitely get the chalky protein powder taste. They don’t do as well as some other brands (non-casein) that I use.
Stephanie –
Mixes smooth. It is thicker but it’s perfect to make a hot chocolate at the end of the night.

I’ve tried a lot of protein powders over the years and this is definitely my favorite so far. If you use casein you know it’s generally thicker than whey with a different flavor profile. This protein mixes extremely well and doesn’t clump up anywhere near as much as other casein proteins I’ve used. But what I really like about it is the taste. It’s now my favorite tasting protein by far. Highly recommend it. Tastes better and mixes better than Optimum Nutrition in my opinion.

I have used the Cinnamon Bun for yers and years (I think back then the chocolate wasn’t getting good reviews) and finally broke down and got some for my Keto recipes (The Big Mans World has some awesome recipes if you need a place to start and you like desserts all day long like me;) any way. Thisxameti day and I mixed up a protein mug cake (see blog above) and shut the front door!!! It’s a freaking CHOCOLATECAKE from Betty Crocker!! Good blesseded day from the protein geniuse at Elite I’M HOOKED!! I also made some protein brownie bites (same site- seriously go look this guy up!) and tomorrow am I’ll try just a hot protein shake as cocoa for breakfast (another really good hack in the Keto works is buying Torani Sugr Free Syrups! I buy them 25-30 bottles a time from web restaurant store dot come. And daaaaang if it isn’t a game changer!!)
So do your self a favor and buy this freaking stuff. I still love cinnamon bun (using it for a mug cake is what switch my husband to Keto! He had NO idea “diet food” could taste like a Cinnabon in a mug! And it’s a good hot drink at night after a lot bike ride:)
If you are new to Keto or just searching casein protein the difference from Whey is this stuff keeps you full for hours and hours- drink it before bed so you reap the benefits of a sound sleep!
Hope this helps!

Md I. –
Good product
Himanshu Chaudhary –
I have tried ON, MB and MyProtein, but so far found this to be best, in taste and test, of practical efficiency results! See ON, is not easily water soluble, but Dymatize is easier (although technically all Casein are much Thicker than Whey.. but hey, every muscle building research will show! That casein is actually MORE important for Muscle growth, as it keeps Nitrogen protein balance in body stable for Anabolic muscle growth, so yeah for guys taking 3 scoops of Whey per day, along with wholefood sources, its better to invest in 1 scoop whey and 1 scoop Casein, or atleast some Indian Cottage Cheese = Paneer before sleep. But phew, lets hope they bring Casein price down! ARGH! This still costs over 100Rs per scoop (25gm per 36gm scoop) while cheaper whey can be around 80Rs per Scoop (like 24gm of 30 protein in ON Gold Standard).

Finding the right protein powder that taste great and does it’s job at the same time can sometimes be difficult to find. I purchased the micellar casein slow absorbing protein; cookies & cream because my friend highly recommended it and gave me a sample. I actually liked the taste and was sold. It wasn’t grainy and it dissolved very well with my blender bottle. I do a high impact workout during the evenings for about 2 hours. As soon as I get home; I usually mix the Dymatize Elite Micellar Casein Protein powder with almond milk, a little PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter and sometimes I add cacao powder. It’s almost like drinking a thick milkshake. I sometimes use this as a meal replacement when I’m too tired to have a small meal after workout. I usually intake half the suggested serving size if I plan to have a meal. It’s does reduce some of my muscle soreness. I will definitely buy it again.

This is my favorite casein powder and I’ve tried most of them! This always blends sooth and not chunky when I turn it into a pudding or cookies. Highly recommend.
M J –
My go-to to Casein. Can’t beat the nutrition label, value for the money, and taste. I’ve tried countless proteins and supplements from every company. Dymatize is definitely aligns with what I’m seeking in a Casein protein product.
StephenC –
I’ve tried a few different casein protein powders and I was not impressed until this one. Great chocolate taste. I usually mix in fruit like strawberries or bananas and it goes great with Dannon Low Fat yogurt. It creates a rich taste that blends well with anything that tastes good with chocolate.
