Casein vs. Whey: What’s the REAL difference? @l@legionsuppslegion
In this concise instructional video, Victoria S. Dorsano explains that whey and casein, both dairy‑derived proteins, are processed by the body in fundamentally different ways. Whey is a fast‑digesting protein rich in leucine, the amino acid that triggers muscle‑building pathways, making it ideal for immediate post‑workout consumption or any situation where a rapid protein boost is needed. Casein, by contrast, forms a gel in the stomach and releases amino acids slowly over several hours, which helps sustain satiety and provides a steady supply of protein throughout the night or between meals. Dorsano notes that most of her clients follow a simple protocol: whey right after training and casein before bed, creating an effective “one‑two punch” for muscle recovery and growth.
