What is Micellar Casein?

Casein is a milk-based complete protein with all nine essential amino acids. Cow milk contains two types of proteins — casein and whey– comprising 80% and 20% of its protein content, respectively. During the cheesemaking process, skim milk is treated with special enzymes or acids, causing the casein in the milk to coagulate. This coagulated part of the milk is called casein, and it can be used to make micellar casein protein powder and other dairy products.

Since casein is not soluble in water, it clumps together to form clots in the body called micelles. Slow-release protein powder is a perfect for building material for muscle repair and growth.

Ingredient Breakdown

  • WPC: VPA®WPC delivers your body a faster supply of protein and amino acids to feed your muscle tissue within the first 90 minutes of sleep. With a protein percentage of approximately 80% and very low fat and carbohydrate levels (only 0.7g and 1.5g respectively) VPA® WPC is extracted using ultra-filtration processes ensuring the protein is left in its most natural form. Approximately 60-90-minute peak muscle saturation.
  • Micellar Casein: VPA® Micellar Casein is the superior slow digesting protein, shadowing the cheaper and less effective substitutes other companies use in their protein blends (Calcium Caseinate or Milk Protein Isolate). Micellar Casein offer a slow drip feed supply of protein to your muscles over 8 hours.

Our Micellar Casein is Perfect For:

Weight Management

Because Micellar Casein is a slow-digesting protein, it keeps you fuller for longer and, therefore reduces your calorie intake and unhealthy snacking associated with hunger.

Night Recovery

Micellar Casein digests over 8 hours, so your body is fed a steady stream of high-quality protein all throughout the night, to maximise your recovery and growth.

Snack Replacement

Our Micellar Casein is an ideal healthy snack since it is so low in calories and digests so slowly, keeping you satisfied for longer.

Ideal for Both Males and Females

VPA® Micellar Casein is perfect for anyone wanting the highest quality protein source.  

Benefits of Using Micellar Casein

  • Muscle Recovery & Growth – Since the human body repairs during sleep, casein night protein powder provides a steady supply of essential amino acids to support muscle repair and growth.
  • Prolonged Satiety – Since casein is a slow-release protein powder, it provides a sustained release of amino acids and nutrients, thus helping curb hunger and cravings, making it easier to manage weight.

  • Supports Lean Muscle Maintenance – For individuals watching their calorie intake, micellar casein protein powder helps preserve lean muscle mass during calorie restriction.

  • Versatile Usage – Flavourful micellar casein protein powders, like vanilla casein protein powder, can be used in shakes, smoothies, or as an ingredient in protein-rich recipes.

FAQs

What is micellar casein protein powder?

Casein is a type of dairy protein found in cow’s milk. It is a high quality, bioavailable protein that contains all the essential amino acids. Unlike whey protein, which is rapidly digested, casein is slowly digested and absorbed. This is because casein is not very soluble in water, and this makes the protein clump together to form spheres called micelles. Our bodies take longer to digest and absorb casein protein micelles than it does whey protein. This slow digestion of casein provides a sustained release of amino acids into the bloodstream, which in turn provides the building materials for muscle repair and growth.

How does micellar casein protein work in the body?

When we eat protein, we digest it into individual amino acids. Our body uses these amino acids to build vital proteins within our body, including muscle tissue, collagen and connective tissue, biological enzymes and hormones. Casein is more slowly digested than other proteins due to its tendency to clump together. This provides a slow release of amino acids, fuelling and building muscles over an extended period of time.

What are the key benefits of using micellar casein protein?

The benefits of casein powder come from being slowly digested and absorbed. This is ideal for people who have a long time between protein meals and for those who want to maximise muscle building overnight. Our body likes to keep a ready supply of free amino acids in our blood stream to provide the building blocks of numerous structures, enzymes and hormones. To keep this supply of amino acids up, our body will break down muscle tissue if we are not supplying a steady stream of amino acids by eating foods that contain protein. The slow digestion of casein powder provides a steady stream of amino acids over a longer period of time. For this reason, casein powder has the following benefits:

  • Casein powder keeps you feeling full for longer.

  • Casein powder is a night protein powder that increases muscle growth overnight.

  • Casein powder decreases muscle loss when there is an extended time between meals.

  • Casein powder improves sleep.

How does micellar casein compare to whey protein?

Both casein powder and whey protein powder have their benefits. Those serious about maximising muscle and strength gains would benefit from taking both. While comparing casein vs whey protein, while whey protein isolate (WPI) is better to take immediately after training, casein powder is better to take when you have a long time between meals or to maximise gains overnight. Casein will keep you feeling full for longer.

What does micellar casein protein powder taste like?

Casein powder is very different to whey protein, so don’t expect a casein protein shake to taste the same as your usual WPI or WPC protein shake. Because casein naturally clumps together it feels thicker in the mouth, and it can sometimes feel a little lumpy. It is this texture that provides the point of difference of, and benefits of casein.

VPA® casein powder comes in four delicious flavours; chocolate, banana, iced coffee, and vanilla casein protein powder. Please be aware that the coffee flavour contains caffeine equivalent to 20mg per serve.

How much micellar casein protein is in a serving?

A scoop of our casein powder is 30g and this is one serve. Each bag of casein powder contains 33 serves. If accuracy is important to you, we recommend weighing your protein to obtain the most accurate serve. This is because protein powders can settle over time, and each scoop may weigh slightly different.

What’s the best way to mix micellar casein protein powder?

Casein can be mixed with water, dairy milk, or milk substitutes. For people dieting or counting macros, please be aware that our product nutrition panels do not take into account the nutritional content of what you mix your protein with. You can mix your protein with as much or as little liquid as you choose depending on your personal preference. We provide guidelines on our packaging.

When is the optimal time to take micellar casein for best results?

Casein powder can be taken at any time, including in the morning, as a snack, or after a workout. It is ideal to take when you know it will be a long time until your next protein meal. As a night time protein to maximise muscle gain overnight, casein should be taken about 30 minutes before you go to bed.

Can micellar casein help improve sleep quality?

Taking casein powder before bed can improve your sleep quality. Studies have shown that diets high in protein can improve sleep quality, so taking casein can increase your protein intake and improve your sleep. For those on a calorie deficit, casein powder can keep hunger at bay before bed, helping you fall asleep and stopping you from waking up hungry. In addition, casein contains tryptophan and amino acids, which have been demonstrated to improve sleep quality.

Does micellar casein burn fat overnight?

While casein powder contributes to fat loss, it is not a magic pill that burns fat overnight. Casein protein powder must be complemented with a balanced diet and adequate workout to see optimal results. The primary benefit is its slow digestion rate, which maintains muscle mass while you sleep and keeps hunger pangs at bay, both during the day and the night.

Are there any side effects to know about with micellar casein protein?

Micellar casein protein is safe for most adults. However, in some adults, particularly those with lactose intolerance, it can cause issues like nausea, stomach pain, bloating, and respiratory issues.

Is micellar casein protein safe for everyone, even if you're pregnant or breastfeeding?

Please ask a medical professional such as a GP or dietitian before using protein powder when pregnant or breastfeeding. There is nothing inherently unsafe in VPA® protein powder for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Please click here for more information.
