NAKED Casein - 2Lb Micellar Casein Protein - Bulk, Zero Carb, NSF Certified, GMO-Free, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Preservative Free - Stimulate Muscle Growth - Enhance Recovery - 30 Servings

The best Casein Protein according to me. Period. I have tried all sorts of Casein Proteins from GNC, and Online (Vitacost, Amazon, Bodybuilding.com, Biotrust etc), over several years. Almost all of them have chemicals and fillers (except perhaps Biotrust and Optimum Natural) and I will get more negative side effects than benefits. BioTrust proteins is a mix of why and casein blend, and they are very costly, and they do have larger amounts of Stevia, Inulin, sugar alcohol etc..Though reasonably healthy, BioTrust cost and the "fillers" put it out of reach for most. I also did not have any positive results from this brand. Optimum Natural Casein was my first choice till recently. Reasonably pure (at least no synthetic chemicals and junk), and decent price per pound, and average benefits. But I recently started on Naked Casein, and I am wondering why I did not try this before! It is the purest, most healthy Casein possible! Huge 5 pound tub, and with 1 serving a day, will last you 75+ days! Even with 2 servings, for the heavier users, it will last you more than a month, and it is very decent price/pound. The quality is amazing! I had great results within a week of using it. No gas, no bloating, no issues! I have used it in the night before sleeping, and have also had it during the day. And I felt energetic and wonderful. My sleep is good, no disturbance, no stomach issues. My recovery seems better. I seem to have gained positive results in the muscle department also, in just this 7-10 day period! (that is the quickest jump in results I have ever had in many years of working out). I am using Naked Whey and Naked Casein together now.. as my only protein supplements. Threw out everything else! Like many have said, it does not mix that easily by just stirring. But I am ok with the lumps! How does it matter? :) Why take more time with blender/mixer/shaker etc? :) Also, like some reviewers have said, it tastes just like diluted milk/milk powder. I do not need to add anything else, and can just have this powder with Water. However, I have added a dash of "Amazing Grace Green Superfood" powder at times, and not only does not help with better mixing, the shake tastes even better, and it is even more healthier! (You can even add a dash of Unflavored vegan protein powder like PlantFusion. No added sugar or extra calories, and better taste and a healther shake! I have also tried it with diluted Yogurt or Buttermilk, and this powder tastes great with all of them! Because my feedback and experience with Naked Whey and Naked Casein have been similar, and beyond my expectations, I wrote a detailed review for both products, and any of you looking at my reviews of Naked Whey, might notice an overlap of some of the info :) But both the "Naked" products are outstanding to say the least. I recommend that you do try it at least once.

This stuff is nearly tasteless. I use a Blendtec blender that pretty much perfectly blends anything, so I'm not sure how well it will work with other blenders. Apparently it's hydrophobic and hard to dissolve, but in my case it fully mixes with water in my blender. It's really expensive compared to most protein sources, but it's pure protein without any fat or carbs. I drink it alone 3 hours before bed to avoid spiking my insulin by taking in carbs that would be in Whey Protein.

This is great protein powder, I love that it doesn’t use stevia (or sucralose or monk fruit) because stevia not only tastes gross but it’s been shown to cause reproductive harm. I add a little extra sugar to my shakes lol but it’s a great quality protein and I highly recommend it. P.S casein is chalky, that’s not the fault of the company, that’s just how it is.

The results I had researched happen when I drink this before bedtime. I sleep much deeper, awaken less frequently. It seems my body is more at peace during the night. My taste buds are not as sharp, it it rather bland. I added 1 tspn of carob and 2 drops of Stevia, this really improved the taste!! I know this also helps the body recognize it as a healthy addition. For me, it has mixing challenges, I use a milk frother. This seems to mix it well, yet makes it almost too thick and frothy to drink. Today, I mixed it up, put it in the fridge keep it cold. Hoping by bedtime it is a better texture.

I’ve been working out and taking different protein supplements consistently for about 15 years. I decided to try this brand as a cleaner alternative to the casein I had been taking previously, and there were a lot of reviews on this product saying it tasted great and mixed well enough. I’m pretty sure those are either bots or people who work for this company that wrote them because this has to be the worst tasting protein I have ever had. Mix-ability was horrible. No matter how long I shook it up in my shaker bottles it would always end up chalky feeling. I usually take casein before bed, and the previous brand I was using was great because it would help me fall asleep faster. This does the opposite. After I’ve choked down the bottle of it, I lay in bed bloated for about 30 minutes or so before it finally starts to die down so I can sleep. I bought the chocolate flavor, which is a joke because it doesn’t taste anything like chocolate. Eventually I started mixing my Whey protein with this to help make it drinkable. Honestly pretty annoyed that it only comes in a 5lb container. I would have liked to tried a 1lb bag first to see if it was worth the ~$100 I paid for this. I guess I’ll be forcing this down for the next month and a half or so. I get what the company is trying to do by keeping the ingredient count low, and I do appreciate that, but I would suggest a warning that this is going to be VERY different than any thing you’ve probably used in the past. Don’t let the bot reviews fool you!

Clean and Effective Protein no Junk Involved.

Great product with no added sugar

It’s a clean product neutral tasting so easy to mix with other ingredients without adding taste

I don’t know if this is a great product, because I can’t find any competitors. This seems to be the only unflavoured casein on the market. I use it for everything. A scoop in my scrambled eggs, a scoop in my pizza dough. A scoop in my bread dough. It fits into almost any recipe l, adding a good dose of protein to any meal.

Based on the reviews, I anticipated a difficult to handle powder needing a high speed or a stick blender, or at the very least, a shaker bottle. I put 15grams of powder into a thin tall beaker, poured about a tablespoon or so of milk over it and stirred with a chopstick to see how long it would take to incorporate. I was surprised that it very quickly changed into a paste, or pudding-like consistency, and the lumps quickly smoothed away (not even half a minute). A tiny bit chalky in taste, but not unpleasant, and with a slight powdered milk flavor. It made a nice pudding with a bit of sweetener, dried coconut flakes for texture, and a few almonds to give it some crunch. From the paste, it incorporates any liquid easily, just by stirring with a spoon. Adding milk to it makes it taste like milk, without thickening it.

I mix a scoop of this unflavoured casein with a half scoop of my normal chocolate whey protein and 350ml of water in a shaker bottle and shake for about 20 seconds. There are no chunks or weird bits. It's a little bit chalky, but it's not bad and it cuts the artificial sweetness of the whey protein. I'm not looking for something that tastes amazing; just something that can go down the hatch and help me meet my protein target for the day. I'll be trying the Naked Whey next.
