Product Summary
Kaged Casein protein boasts scientifically-tested premium 100% micellar casein protein designed to improve recovery and maximize muscle growth. Kaged recommends taking this product at night or in the morning as its slow-releasing properties are claimed to keep you anabolic for hours which aids in repairing muscles. In addition, this cold-pressed ultra-filtered casein contains 14 grams of EAA and 7 grams of BCAA to enhance recovery.
Available in three flavors, users appreciate its mixability and creamy taste which reportedly taste like a milkshake with a similar level of thickness. It is important to note that casein protein will create a thicker shake, which some people found off-putting. While the majority of users enjoyed the level of sweetness, some felt the sucralose left an aftertaste and that the product was too sweet.
