- Description

DYMATIZE® ELITE CASEIN XT provides 24 grams of slow digesting casein protein per serving. ELITE CASEIN XT is specifically designed to digest more slowly in your body than other rapid release protein sources such as whey. This slow digestion is a result of the natural pH sensitivity of Casin Protein in the digestive track. Because of the natural thickening effect of ELITE CASEIN XT in the low pH environment of the stomach, a prolonged and steady release of protein is obtained. This delayed digestion is often desirable, especially at bedtime or other periods when your body can go for an extended period of hours without food.
ELITE CASEIN XT is further enhanced by the addition of NUTRATERIC®, a revolutionary, pharmaceutically- developed coating system. This delayed release technology allows the specific material it coates to release at a particular pH range. In fact, with this coating process, the resting digestion can take more than twice as long as other forms of non-coated protein, further enhancing the extended release capacity of Dymatize ELITE CASEIN XT.
Each serving of ELITE CASEIN XT. is delicious and satisfying. Due to the naturally hydroscopic nature of casein proteins, ELITE CASEIN XT. is noticeably thicker and smoother than other non-casein based products. ELITE CASEIN XT. is made from only protein sources with a PDCAAS (protein digestibility corrected amino acid)of 1.0 (perfect score) or higher. With 24 grams of Casein-derived protein, and about 10 grams of BCAAs, Glutamine and Precursors teamed with the revolutionary NUTRATERIC® coating, ELITE CASEIN XT. will help you achieve all your fitness goals.

-
Casein Protein
Casein Protein- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Used for Amount Why Athletic PerformanceRefer to label instructions 
[2 stars] Casein protein is more slowly digested than other animal proteins, resulting in a slower, prolonged rise in blood levels of amino acids, so some speculate that it may better support protein synthesis by the body compared with proteins like whey protein that are more rapidly digested.
ObesityRefer to label instructions [2 stars] Casein protein in milk may aid weight loss due to its effect on appetite, calorie burning, and body composition.
Casein is the main protein found in milk. Similar to other animal proteins, casein is a complete protein, providing generous amounts of essential amino acids.1 However, it is digested more slowly than most other animal proteins, resulting in a more prolonged release of amino acids into the bloodstream.2Copyright 2013 Aisle7.

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
Great product. I use the Dymatize ISO 100 for Whey and I'm glad they came out with a more then competitive Casein. It's low in calories. Tastes good. And fills you up. I usually eat some fruit with it right before bed and it's the perfect combo.

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
I was waking up in the middle of the night hungry and I bought this product to try as a before bedtime meal. So far the cravings have passed. Also really seems to help with recovery. I've been doing Insanity and my legs really seem boosted in the mornings after being hammered from the workout. I use a blender bottle and mix with unsweetened almond milk. The taste and consistency isn't the best, but overall I'm happy with the results.

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
My first review was after a day and this review is after one full week of trial and error. It took some getting used to but some things I did to make it better was making sure I mixed it just right. At first I either had too little or too much water. I also included maybe a smidget of whey protein(chocolate) with chocolate flavored casein xt. this really did the trick on taste for the better. Its great when you take it to supplement a light dinner which is what I do. I do not wake up with hunger cravings anymore in the middle of the night.

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:

This is a great product overall (: Very good casein! Taste isn't too bad, but smooth vanilla still has the throne as far as casein/taste goes (;

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
This product may be good to take before bedtime, because of all the slow digesting protein in it, but it is by far the nastiest thing I have ever tasted. Tried adding fruits and even yogurts into the mix, but the taste cannot be masked.
Pros
- Easy To Swallow

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
This was recommended to me from the local GNC store. I have noticed a great decrease in recovery time. You will want to experiment with some other ingredients when blending. I use some ice, scoop of peanut butter, and a bananna. Honestly it tastes like a really good milk shake and I truly enjoy it after a late night workout before bed.
Pros
- Easy To Mix
- Effective
- Good Value
- Shortens Recovery Time
- Tastes Good
Cons
Best Uses
- Daily Use

Comments about DYMATIZE® Elite Casein XT - Chocolate Milk:
This is much better than the GNC brand Casein. Still gritty, but I think that is just Casein in general. Taste is not bad once u get used to it, but overall I think I would buy again.
