Muscletech: Nitro-Tech Nighttime

MuscleTech's Nitro-Tech Nighttime protein is pretty unique in being a whey protein supplement which is engineered specially to deliver a sustained release of whey protein to your muscles. It uses Micellar Whey, yes you read that right, Micellar Whey not the more commonly known Micellar Casein.

Micellar Whey vs Micellar Casein

If you are scratching your head and wondering why MuscleTech would use Micellar Whey instead of Micellar Casein in a night time protein let us explain. 

If you were to make a straightforward comparison of whey protein to casein then with all else being equal whey will win being better tasting, lower in fat, easier to digest, and most importantly for athletes, having a superior amino acid profile. In particular it is higher in the key recovery enhancing amino acids referred to as branched chain amino acids.

Why You Should Consider Nitro-Tech Nighttime

At heart, the key benefit of this is it gives you all the advantages associated with whey protein but with the slow release rate which is associated with casein protein. Casein is traditionally favoured by bodybuilders at night simply by being slow to break down in the body meaning your muscles get a continual supply of muscle growth enhancing amino acids while you sleep.

By combining all the benefits of whey protein with the slow release rate of Micellar Casein, Nitro-Tech Nighttime puts casein out of business meaning users can now benefit from whey protein's unique benefits at any time of the day or night.
