Muscle Feast Grass Fed Micellar Casein Protein Powder, Pasture Raised & Hormone Free, Slow Digesting Casein Protein - Supports Overnight Muscle Recovery, Gluten Free Protein Powder - Vanilla, 4lb

Having used protein shakes the last 15 years I haven’t come across a company like Muscle Feast that produces a cleaner protein. The Unflavored Whey Isolate and Casein proteins are roughly 92% and have none of the extra fillers used by other companies like ON and BSN. Even their Chocolate Protein Flavor is 85% and uses natural flavoring like Coca powder and Stevia to add flavor to their powder. This all sounded too good to be true at first so I reached out to the owner of Muscle Feast *Sean Gillespie** to ask him about how they manufacture their protein powders: Please see Emails below “Hi there, I just bought some Casein protein power off of you on Amazon. I checked your website and you don't mention where you make your products. Could you please send me information on where you make your protein products and other supplements? I need to know that I'm not buying something made in China. Also I would like the name of who inspects the quality of your products so I can check to see if it's legitimate. Thank You. Mike” Mike, All of our protein powders come from Wisconsin. Our Dextrose, Maltodextrin and waxy maize come from farms across the US. Our Oat powder comes from Canada. Most of the amino acids and creatine originate from China (they supply about 99% of all the amino acids and creatine sold in the US; Creapure Creatine is manufactured in Germany). Japan does most of the other 1% but their quality is not as good as the product from China. I share your concerns about China. That is why we only purchase products through China from Prinova and Green Wave, Inc; both companies have full time US employees in China that verify the Chinese suppliers they are using are following US GMP procedures and they also do independent testing on the ingredients for purity. For inspections, we are regularly inspected by the Ohio Department of Agriculture and we are also registered with the FDA and subject to random inspections from them as well. **Sean Gillespie** “Thanks Sean. You've been very informative. I just have one other question. I've never come across a more pure protein on the Market. Your unflavored Casein is 92.7% Protein and your Whey Isolate is 92.8% Protein. How can do you make your proteins so clean and free of fillers? Mike” Mike, All isolate proteins will range from about 91% to as high as 95% (Ion exchange can hit 94-95%). We do not like the ion-exchange protein as it partially denatures the protein and the sodium content is really high. Most companies cut their proteins to drop the protein content down (make the product less expensive to produce) and many of them use less expensive forms of protein; like whey concentrate, sodium or calcium cassenaite. We just decided to keep our proteins as clean as possible and all natural to ensure we were putting out the best products possible. The downside of our protein powder is that they do not thicken like other products do when you mix our proteins in water. If you put our proteins in water, the consistency of the water does not change much. We recommend taking our proteins in milk or a milk substitute. **Sean Gillespie** I just tried the chocolate casein protein and it mixes easily and tastes great. Just as good as chocolate milk. I would highly recommend Muscle Feast’s supplements. They are just a small company that offers outstanding customer service and are there to answer any questions you may have. Feel free to contact them at [email protected] and try their protein shakes for yourself. After years of having protein shakes with added sweeteners and fillers I know I’m going to stay with their protein shakes for years to come. Mike

Muscle Feast Chocolate Micellar Casein Protein powder is my favorite micellar casein powder, and it's also my favorite protein powder for mixing in to make stuff like pudding. It's sweetened with stevia, a natural sweetener rather than an artificial sweetener, and the chocolate covers up the stevia taste. The milk for this powder is from grass-fed cows, which is better for the cows and better for the users of this powder, as well. I found whey protein isolate didn't work well when it came to making protein pudding and protein bars, but it turns out that with a little experimenting, this stuff is great for making those and also high protein treats like protein brownies and protein cookies, which didn't turn out well using whey protein isolate powder. I also find that this protein powder is much easier to mix into liquids than their chocolate whey protein isolate. Overall I'm super happy with this product in every way.

I've been using this for about a week so far and I can't see anything wrong with this product. I'm a college athlete who had been looking into casein for quite some time, however I'm also very health oriented and refuse to use anything loaded with artificial flavors, preservatives, fillers, etc. This casein is completely free of everything unwanted - it is pure, unadulterated casein protein. This is what protein should be! I took the casein by O.N for about three days and was completely off my game: my stomach felt horrible, my digestion was off, and I got a terrible headache. With this product, there is nothing. Yes it's unflavored, but it just tastes like watered down milk, as essentially since 80% of milk is casein protein - should come as no surprise. So to any people who rate this low due to taste - no, just no - this is supposed to taste like this. As for the benefit of the protein itself, I have noticed a considerably difference in my rate of recovery. I put about 1 1/2 scoops in water and take it before bed ( the equivalent to about 30g) - first let me say how much it will make you full ( which is awesome) - upon waking up I notice I am not as hungry as I usually am (as a 6'3 215lb male, I know this feeling well) - and I am also NOT AS SORE. From nearly a decade of sports, working out, and good organic diet, I know my body extremely well. I know how I should feel, and by taking this, by having the slow absorption of A.A's throughout the night as I sleep - it's incredible. Also one thing that really stood out to me was the fantastic price. SERIOUSLY, THIS STUFF IS WORTH THE MONEY. There is 82 servings in the large container, for the price (mine was $56) - this is $0.68 per serving of protein free of everything but what nature intended. You would literally be a dolt to NOT buy this brand over other brands. I will be using this for quite some time, as should you guys. This company has my full approval if it keeps producing quality products like this casein protein. All in all, there are literally no negative issues with this product.

This is a really solid product, no B.S. fillers or "natural flavors" in it. Just the Casein, Cocoa powder, the sunflower lecithin is used as an emulsifier (to allow the powder to mix), and stevia to sweeten. I would say the taste isn't the greatest, and is a bit grainy. I drink this at night post-workout, and its really great with some milk, frozen banana and peanut butter to sweeten it up and makes it less grainy. Definitely want to use a blender with this though, I don't think it will mix very well without it.
