How to use?

Mix two scoops (30 g) of powder with 500 ml of water or milk in a shaker and shake until smooth. The less liquid you use, the thicker the shake. The manufacturer recommends drinking it just before bedtime, but it can also be used between meals. The recommended daily portion is two scoops (30 g). The scoop gives an approximate amount, so the manufacturer recommends weighing the powder.

Who is it for?

The product suits adults who want to add milk protein to their daily diet and prefer a thicker, shake-like drink that can be made with water or milk. The manufacturer recommends the casein shake mainly in the evening before bedtime, but it also fits between meals, for example for people who train regularly and keep an eye on their protein intake. The product contains milk, so it is not suitable for people with a milk protein allergy. People under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding women and anyone with a medical condition or taking medication should consult a doctor or other healthcare professional before use.
