Beyond The Basics > No Artificial Flavors, Sweeteners or Synthetic Colors. > Loaded with Micellar Casein. > 24 Grams of Time-Released Protein Per Serving. > 4.7 Grams of Naturally Occurring BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine). > 4.7 Grams of Naturally Occurring Glutamine and Glutamic Acid in Every Scoop.

Directions
Suggested Use: For healthy adults, consume enough protein to meet your daily protein requirements with a combination of high protein foods and protein supplements throughout the day as part of a balanced diet and exercise program. Shaker: Using a shaker cup is the easiest and most convenient way to mix up a consistently great casein shake every time. Just add one heaping scoop to your shaker cup and then pour 10-12 oz of your preferred beverage. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds. Adjust the intensity of your by varying the amount of liquid that you use to prepare it. For a bolder flavor with a slightly more body and sweetness, mix one scoop with 8-10 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. For a milder tasting, less sweet shake, use 12-14 oz of liquid per scoop.Blender: Add one rounded scoop to a blender filled with 10-12 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Blend for 20-30 seconds. Then add 3-4 ice cubes and blend for an additional 30 seconds. By adding a few high-energy ingredients to your shake you can blend up a delicious meal: try adding fresh or frozen fruits (strawberries, bananas, peaches, etc.), peanut butter, flaxseed oil, yogurt, coconut, slivered almonds, or other ingredients. By adding supplements like Micronized Creatine, Glutamine, Taurine, and/or Instantized BCAA powders, you can make an even more powerful post-workout recovery product.Spoon Stirred: If you forgot your shaker cup or don''t have time to get out the blender, you can just add one heaping scoop to a glass filled with 10-12 oz of cold water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Then mix it up with a spoon for about 30 seconds or until powder is dissolved. Do not use as a sole source of nutrition for weight loss or maintenance.
