Dorian Yates Micellar Casein

Micellar casein is the slowest-digesting protein commonly available, and the reason it exists on a shelf next to whey rather than instead of it.

The protein for the hours you're not eating

Whey clears fast. Casein doesn't — it releases amino acids gradually over an extended window, which makes it the sensible choice before bed or across any long gap between meals. Micellar casein is the least processed form of it.

Why lifters choose it

• Micellar casein — slow, sustained amino acid release
• Available unflavoured for cooking and baking
• Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass

How to use it

Mix one serving with water or milk about half an hour before bed. Casein thickens far more than whey — use extra liquid, or eat it with a spoon. The unflavoured version stirs into porridge, yoghurt and baking without taking over.
