What is Reflex Micellar Casein?
Reflex Micellar Casein shouldn’t be confused with other casein proteins that are made with acid casein or caseinates, as these are manufactured using a process which can denature the protein. Micellar Casein is made from fresh skimmed milk which is ultra-filtered, in a similar way that Whey protein is processed, and so results in a pure un-denatured milk protein consisting of 80% casein and 20% whey.
What are the benefits of Reflex Micellar Casein?
This form of processing the protein means that you get the least processed of all milk proteins and it also gives a timed release effect which helps to prevent muscle breakdown. Studies have shown that the form of casein protein used by Reflex can sustain steady amino acid elevations for up to 7 hours perfect for a late night protein source. Plus you get the added benefits of 20% whey for those times, such as post-workout, when you need a faster acting protein to feed your muscles.
