Question 2: When is it recommended to take Casein and how often per day?
What is the recommended serve of this casein and how long does this 4lb tub last? |
(Posted: 1st Sept, 2008) |
Answer: I would take it as a night time supplement shake or after training(post workout shake), in the evening or before bead.
if you take one serve per day a 4lb tub will last you approx 56 days if you take one directly after your workout and then one at night it will last you 28 days. |

| Question 3: I have just purchased a tub of this Casein and have a question. I have been until now taking ON 100% Whey in about 250mL of milk before bed and am now switching to the casein. Should i still use milk if my goal is to bulk, and what would the difference be in gains compared to water? I had been using a normal milk and my body fat was staying stable? |
(Posted: 6th Oct, 2008) |
| Answer: You should be getting the same result by using the milk as the milk is adding calories to what is already in the powder, where as with water you are cutting out the extra calories that you get in the milk. The casein is a very slow release protein where as the 100% Whey is faster acting so just make sure you get some Amino's or a fast acting protein for after workouts. |

| Question 4: I noticed you stated to one question that they should take Casein directly after workout? Why would you do this when it is slow release? Wouldn't you want fast acting Whey directly after a workout? |
(Posted: 22nd Jan, 2009) |
| Answer: You would not want a Casein protein after a workout. A WPI/WPC would be of most benefit. |

| Question 6: What's the different between Casein and WPC? |
(Posted: 27th May, 2009) |
Answer: Casein is a very slow digesting form of protein, it takes up to 8 hours to be fully digested. WPC is a medium digesting form of protein and it takes about 3 hours to be digested.
Whey protein in the most part is a by product of cheese manufacturing. The casein coagulates and separates leaving raw whey uncurded on top of the casein. The casein is a very rich source of protein and natural vitamins etc as it has not been denatured in any way.
The whey however, undergoes various processing steps and it is these processing steps which determine the quality of the whey protein in the end product. |

| Question 7: Any idea how long before recreate is back in stock? |
(Posted: 22nd Oct, 2009) |
Answer: Hi Adrian,
USP Labs are currently going through the licensing process with all of their products, so we don't have an exact eta sorry. Hopefully it will be within the next two months but we can't say for sure.
If you are looking for another thermogenic, our most popular sellers are Thermalene Extreme by Syn-Tec, PyrogenX by Horleys or Hydroxycut Hardcore.
Thanks |

| Question 8: Can hydroxycut max be used with fat stop capsules? |
(Posted: 28th Oct, 2009) |
Answer: HI - it can but you are probably just wasting your money as they are both designed to do the same thing. Which in turn doesnt mean you will those "more". If you are wanting to lose body fat and already have the fat stop we would recommend stacking the D-toxilean or Acetyl L-carnitine as thats what we all do here for a great fat loss combo.
Hope this helps... |

| Question 9: Can A-bomb,T-bomb,Leukic,Gakic, Hydrocycut be taken all together? |
(Posted: 2nd Dec, 2009) |
| Answer: Hi. It is fine for these products to be taken together. A-Bomb and Leukic are both Anabolic activators. So I wouldn’t double up on this supplement. It would be fine to take T-Bomb, A-Bomb, Gakic and Hydroxycut together. Hydroxycut is a thermogenic, so as long as your water intake is kept up it should be fine. |

Question 10: Hi.Is it OK to mix 1 scoop of WPI with this casein protein before retiring at night?Would there be added benefits in doing so?,if so,would that equate to approx.40 grams of protein in total.
Thanks? |
(Posted: 9th Feb, 2010) |
Answer: Hi. Casein turns into a gel binding type of protein in your stomach and takes a lot longer for your body to metabolize the protein. If you add WPI to it there will be no added benefit except extra protein. The Casein will slow down the WPI and is probably pointless of combining the two together. I suggest if it is extra protein you are looking for??? Just add more casein to your bedtime shake.
Hope this helps. |
