1. What is Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry and what does it do?
Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry is a slow-digesting protein supplement — micellar casein from Dutch pasture-fed cows.
Per 30 g serving you get 24 g protein (87% energy from protein), 4.3 g BCAA, 0.75 g L-glutamine and ~600 mg calcium (75% RI). Mild strawberry flavour with a creamy, pudding-like texture. Where whey releases its amino acids within 60–90 minutes, casein does so over 6–8 hours. 75 servings per 2270 g jar.
2. Who is Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry suitable for?
For adults (18+) who want slow protein release for evening/night or long periods without food.
Particularly suitable for:
- Bedtime shake — 6–8 hours of amino acid release during sleep
- Intermittent fasting — between long meal windows
- Users with a high calcium requirement (~600 mg per serving = 75% RI)
NOT suitable for: milk allergy, soy allergy, strict lactose intolerance, post-workout context (choose whey, faster absorbing), vegans.
3. What does micellar casein do in my diet?
Protein: Protein contributes to a growth in muscle mass. Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass. Protein contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
Calcium: Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones. Condition: ≥15% RI per serving — at 75% RI well above the threshold.
Combine with regular resistance training + bedtime intake for optimal slow-release benefit.
4. How do I take Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry?
1 serving = 30 g powder (1 scoop) mixed with 250–300 ml water or skimmed milk.
- Best timing: in the evening 30–60 minutes before bedtime — for 6–8 hours of amino acid release during sleep
- Alternative: between long meal windows (4–6 hours without food)
- For pudding texture: use less water (~150 ml) and chill for 15 min in the refrigerator
- Maximum 2 servings per day for most users
- NOT recommended post-workout
5. When is the best time to take Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry?
In the evening before bedtime is the signature use case.
For most users 1 serving (24 g protein) 30–60 min before bedtime is enough. Avoid directly post-workout — there whey's fast absorption is superior.
6. Should I take Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry with or without food?
Both work — depending on timing.
Pre-sleep: on an empty or almost empty stomach (2+ hours after the evening meal) for maximum relative impact. When breaking intermittent fasting: can be used as a snack between meals. The pudding texture also makes it suitable as an evening snack replacement.
7. How long before I notice results?
Changes in muscle mass and bone status: weeks to months, cumulative. Especially relevant in cutting phases.
8. Which form of protein does suppstore use and why?
Micellar casein (native, 88%) from Dutch pasture-fed cows — no calcium caseinate or casein hydrolysate.
- Micellar = native protein structure, not processed by acid or heat
- Native micelles stay intact during digestion → true slow release
- Calcium caseinate (cheaper) is processed and digests somewhat faster
- Casein hydrolysate is broken down — loses the slow-release advantage
- For 'slow protein', only micellar is the right choice
9. What is the difference from whey protein?
Opposite profile — both useful in different contexts:
- Whey: 60–90 min amino acid peak, ideal post-workout
- Casein: 6–8 hours of amino acid release, ideal pre-sleep
- Whey: 78–94% protein purity (Pure Whey to Platinum)
- Casein: 87% protein (24g per 30g serving) + ~600 mg calcium
Many athletes combine both: whey post-workout + casein pre-sleep for 24-hour protein coverage.
10. How much protein and calcium is in each serving?
Per 30 g serving:
- 24 g protein (87% of energy from protein)
- ~600 mg calcium (75% RI)
- 4.3 g BCAA (leucine + isoleucine + valine)
- 0.75 g L-glutamine
- All 9 essential amino acids
A jar of 2270 g contains 75 servings — 75 days' supply at 1 serving/day.
11. What does the scientific research say?
Casein is one of the best-researched slow protein sources.
12. Are there side effects?
Well tolerated by most healthy adults.
Possible mild effects: for lactose-sensitive users — casein contains ~1.5–2 g lactose per serving (slightly higher than whey isolate). With milk allergy: not suitable. At a high dose on an empty stomach it can feel 'heavy' due to the pudding texture — drink more water with it.
13. Who had better not use Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry?
Do not use with:
- Milk allergy (casein is the main milk protein)
- Soy allergy (lecithin)
- Strict lactose intolerance
- Hypercalcaemia or history of kidney stones (consult a doctor)
- Vegan diet
- Known kidney disease (consult a doctor first)
14. Is Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
In moderate doses (max 1 serving per day) generally safe as an extra protein and calcium source during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Whole-food protein and calcium sources (quark, yoghurt, cheese) are preferable. Consult your midwife or GP. Total calcium intake should ideally stay below the UL of 2500 mg/day from all sources.
15. From what age can children use Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry?
Not specifically formulated for children under 18. For adolescent athletes: under the guidance of a sports dietitian or GP.
16. Can I combine Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry with my medication?
Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you use medication.
- Levodopa — protein intake can affect absorption, take separately
- Tetracycline antibiotics — calcium + milk protein reduce absorption, separate by 2 hours
- Fluoroquinolones — take separately because of calcium
- Bisphosphonates — on an empty stomach, separate from calcium and protein
- Thyroid medication — avoid simultaneous intake, separate by 4 hours (calcium interaction)
17. Can I combine Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry with other supplements?
Combines well with: whey protein (daytime) + casein (evening) for 24-hour protein coverage; vitamin D3 (osteo pairing with calcium); creatine; magnesium.
Avoid combining with other high-calcium supplements to keep total intake below 2500 mg/day (UL). Avoid combining with iron supplements at the same time — calcium inhibits iron absorption.
18. Which allergens does it contain, and what is it free from?
Contains:
- Milk (micellar casein — primary milk protein)
- Soy (lecithin emulsifier)
Free from:
- Gluten
- Nuts and peanuts
- Eggs
- Fish
- Crustaceans
- Sesame
- Sulphite
- Lupin
- Mustard
- Celery
- Molluscs
Contains natural strawberry flavourings. Not suitable for milk allergy or strict lactose intolerance (~1.5–2 g lactose per serving).
19. Is Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry vegan or vegetarian?
Not vegan (casein comes from cow's milk). But vegetarian.
For strict vegan seekers: look at the Vegan Protein line in the suppstore range (plant-based blends).
20. Where is Micellar Casein 2270g Strawberry produced?
