Just found an interesting article comparing the advantages of whey protein vs casein protein:

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/casein-vs-whey

Seems pretty scientifically based and useful.

Very informational and made sense. I had always hear whey protein was best but apparently, they both have their advantages and interestingly, for those of us with RNY & malabsorption, the calcium in casein is handy but the muscle building properties of whey are equally important. Seems we need a combo.

they recommend whey protein isolate when you're early out, but at this point, I also use powders that are a combo since I get most of my protein from food at this point....
