The Science of Nighttime Protein
🌙 Overnight Recovery
Muscle protein synthesis continues during sleep. Feed it with slow-digesting protein.
🧀 Casein Power
Casein forms a gel in your stomach, releasing amino acids over 6-8 hours. Cottage cheese is nature's casein.
😴 Better Sleep
A small protein snack before bed can improve sleep quality and morning recovery.
