Casein Gold

To recover properly as an athlete, it is important that you give your body as constant a supply of proteins as possible. The most important time to use Casein Gold protein is before going to sleep. While you are sleeping, there is no intake of protein for 7–9 hours. By taking Casein Gold before you go to sleep, you ensure that your muscles receive sufficient proteins during the night. Casein Gold contains proteins that are slowly absorbed by the body. This ensures a constant release of proteins in the blood over a prolonged period. You can also opt to use a slow-releasing protein source at other times, such as in the morning or between meals during the day, and you could also use Casein Gold protein after a training session to supplement your diet for a longer release of proteins.

Protein stimulates muscle recovery, muscle building, and muscle preservation. As protein is slowly absorbed by the body, it is suitable to replenish the building blocks in your muscles over a longer period of time. Casein Gold protein is suitable to take prior to a period without food, such as during sleep or before a long working day. Depending on the dosage and training method, you can use Casein Gold as a supplement to your normal diet.

Friesland Campina

Friesland Campina takes great care to ensure quality and responsible production. The development of high-quality proteins starts with the best quality milk. Friesland Campina dairy farmers supply milk to Friesland Campina DMV where the proteins are extracted. Since Friesland Campina manages the entire chain, this complete process can be monitored in accordance with high quality standards.

The proteins from Friesland Campina DMV that are incorporated in Virtuoos products come from one of the largest milk processing factories in the world. Here, the milk is pasteurised (heated to 72°C) and checked for quality. First, the milk is skimmed. Milk contains two kinds of protein: 80% of milk protein consists of casein protein and 20% is whey protein. These protein fractions are split and dried to a powder with a protein content of between 80–90% protein.

When the splitting is carried out at the factory in Veghel, casein is formed (called calcium caseinate on the label). Casein protein is obtained by acidifying the milk, after which it is neutralized again by adding calcium. This method of production makes it possible to obtain a pure form of casein; the end product contains hardly any whey proteins and the lactose levels are very low (<0.2%). Casein protein intake can lead to increased muscle mass and muscle strength.
