How to take it
- Directions: 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 of Gold Standard 100% Casein to a shaker cup filled with 10-12 ounces of your preferred beverage. Cover and shake for 25-30 seconds. Tip: Adjust the flavor and texture of your Gold Standard 100% Casein shake by varying the amount of liquid you use to prepare it. For a bolder flavor with a slightly thicker body and more sweetness, mix one scoop with 8-10 oz of water, milk or your favorite beverage. For a thinner, milder tasting, less sweet shake, use 12-14 oz of liquid. Blender: Add one heaping scoop of Gold Standard 100% Casein 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. 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 of Gold Standard 100% Casein 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 until powder is dissolved.
- 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.
