I have read many times on this forum (and on other forums) that a protein blend consisting of both Whey & casein is the best protein to ingest. To be honest, I have always felt that is the correct choice to make because of the slower digestion of casein, as well as the faster absorption of whey (usually isolates)...but unfortunately for me, it has been tough finding a blend that won't inflame my lactose intolerance (PES Select has been good & I just tried OxyElite Protein today & so far it seems fine as well)
However, in today's AM Newsletter this article was included: How Much Protein Do You Need? - AnabolicMinds.com written by Charles Poliquin...If you look at #3 it states that whey alone is the better choice over a blend because casein is an "inferior" protein (not my words...quoted from the article)...
Now I know at least 99% of you will disagree with the author on this issue and can probably provide reseach to debunk Mr. Poliquin's claim...so why would the AM editors include this article if a blend really is better? With PES & OxyElite being to of the more talked about proteins on this forum you would think at the very least a disclaimer would be included in the article...
Thanks for any information you can provide either way....and please let's keep this a peaceful debate. There seems to be a few "hostile" debates lately on various topics. We are all here to learn & achieve our muscular goals!!!
