7 Best Time Release Protein Powder

With all the different types of supplements on the market nowadays, it's becoming increasingly difficult to know what you really need. While whey protein is an all time favourite for bodybuilders and athletes, there are other supplements which are worth taking a look as well notably protein blends, casein or egg white protein. These proteins are also known as time release proteins.

While a time release protein can be a simple egg white protein or casein protein, the best ones would be a mixture of different types of protein sources which we call a protein blend such as whey and casein or whey, casein and egg albumen just to cite a few examples.

The great thing about a time release protein is the added benefit of multiple stage release of amino acids into your bloodstream since these proteins digest at different rates from fast, medium to slow. Whey is a fast-acting protein, egg white is a medium-release protein while casein is a slow-release protein. In other words, you get the best of both worlds.

A time release protein will promote quick muscle growth while keeping your body anabolic for an extended period of time thanks to the casein present in most protein blends which provides a sustained release of amino acids up to 7-8 hours or more. There are several types of casein protein notably micellar casein, calcium caseinate and milk protein isolate. For the instant released proteins, you should usually see hydrolyzed whey, whey isolates or whey concentrates which have fast digestion rates within 10 minutes and 30 minutes respectively. Time release proteins are a good option for pre-bed as well as post-workout nutrition but you can definitely take this protein any time of the day as well including meal replacement.

If you're health-conscious, you'd better stick to natural protein powders which are free from artificial sweeteners(sucralose, acesulfame potassium, aspartame), flavors, colors, fillers or chemicals, instead opt for supplements containing natural sweeteners like stevia and cane sugar for instance. Stevia is a zero calorie sweetener and is derived from the leaves of the herbal plant Stevia rebaudiana.

After research, here are some of the best time release natural protein powders for your muscle-building goals.
