The Smart Protein in Mean Jonathan is casein, not whey. Both whey and casein come from milk* but they are structured differently and as such, work differently inside the body. While whey is great for muscle building/post-recovery, casein is a natural cell protector/during exercise performance. Casein keeps your body from burning its own muscle cells by maintaining anabolic balance, almost like a totally safe non-synthetic alternative to anabolic steroids. MEAN JONATHAN comes with no side-effects and is approved by the FDA because all of its positive effects come from natural proteins, not dangerous hormones.

Protein differences - An example:

Vitamin B and Vitamin C are both vitamins but they aren't substitutes. The same concept applies with the proteins whey and casein. They do different jobs and one can't substitute the other.

Another example. Fiber and sugar are both carbohydrates. Just as you wouldn't want to consume 20g of fiber before your workout, you don't need to take in that much casein for it to do its job.

The protective properties of casein:

Casein allows your muscles to become highly stimulated during exercise while preventing breakdown (catabolism–the opposite of anabolism–which is what occurs during strenuous exercise). When all of your tissue is stressed but none is burned off, greater net growth occurs. In other words, casein maintains anabolism.

The best way to incorporate casein into your plan:

Research shows that the milk proteins whey and casein are the best for sustaining and building muscle tissue, and when both whey and casein are used on a daily basis gains are much more substantial than by using whey alone. However, whey and casein shouldn't be ingested at the same time because when they're both present in the stomach, they congeal and absorption slows to a halt. Therefore, to properly add casein to your regiment, you should alternate consumption occasions.

Drink Mean Jonathan before and during a workout to load and reload. Then to recover, consume a whey recovery drink. Carbohydrates are essential for both performance and recovery.

In conclusion, whey and casein perform completely different actions inside the body and aren't substitutes just because both happen to be proteins.

* Even though Mean Jonathan's Smart Proteins come from milk, they are extremely low in allergenic potential and individuals with severe milk allergies have been known to consume Mean Jonathan without any adverse effects. If you have a milk allergy, talk to your doctor about Mean Jonathan and take the necessary precautions before you try it.
