What would the diference by between Milk Protein Isolate,Hyrdrolyzed Casein, and Micellar Casein besides price? They all seem to be derived from milk. Would they each in theory be considered long lasting proteins?
Forget protein powders guys. Meat is the ultimate slow digesting protein source. It sits in your stomach being slowly digested for hours.
How fast do you think your protein shakes will digest?

I don’t know if slow digestion has anything to do with it, but the last two nights I’ve had 4oz. of ground beef and cheese and slept like the dead. I can’t remember the last time I slept so well, so I’ll be trying to have meat more often right before bed.

When I have a shake I have something like the following. (Varies depending on current intake and goals)
16 ounces of liquid (all water, all Hood, or half water and half Hood)
1-2 scoops MD
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/4 cup walnuts
1 tablespoon olive oil
When I eat food, my preference, it is usually the following. (Varies depending on current intake and goals)
8 ounces lean ground beef
1-2 servings of cheese
1/4 cup walnuts

That sounds pretty damn good. I’m kind of sick of the cottage cheese/flax seed oil routine, and I often have trouble sleeping. I can never get enough meat, anyway. Might have to start giving meat/cheese a shot…
