Just wondering if I could get away from the chicken/beef/eggs for a while and eat lots of cottage cheese instead. It's got tons of slow digesting casein in it so wouldn't this be just as good as eating chicken or beef? Any thoughts welcome.
thats not 100% true. Dairy is a great source of protein regardless of when you use it, it does not just need to be had before bed. The casein and before thing is a huge myth. If you meet protein intake in the 24 hour period that is what matters most, not when you eat X or Y. Meeting protein intake and minimums is what matters most. If you eat cottage cheese or steak before bed it wont matter.I honestly try to keep dairy out of the diet as much as possible. Casein (calcium in it specifically) can/will block other nutrients from being absorbed alongside it. Night time is best time for it. If you take ZMK at night, take it an hour before you have casein/dairy.
Lean protein alongside a nutritious meal is best during the day. I wouldn't be eating dairy to get the majority of your protein in. Aim for it to be the smallest source of protein in your diet.
I only suggested to take casein before bed so that it won't affect nutrient/supplement absorption. Steak is even better!!thats not 100% true.

Whey protein does not have any milk solids in it. I wouldn't compare it to cottage cheese / dairy in this thread.whey protein all day long and guess what is is heavily processed and forms of dairy.
Kombucha!! It's what I drink now instead of yogurt, with same benefits, if not more.i agree it should not be the largest part of your diet, but forms of yogurt are great for probiotics and healthy vitamins, minerals, casein, and vitamin D/Calcium.
If whey protein does not have any milk solids in it, then why do lactose intolerant people have bad reactions to whey protein? The only whey they could take is whey isolate because it is 100% dairy free and voided of all lactose.Whey protein does not have any milk solids in it.

Good point. The only whey protein I use is isolate or hydrolyzed whey, so I guess I overlooked that. I like my protein blends though, but I keep them for the evening since I'm too lazy to cook steak before bed!If whey protein does not have any milk solids in it, then why do lactose intolerant people have bad reactions to whey protein?

One of the parts is called curds. The curds are used to make cheese, leaving behind whey protein in the liquid portion. This liquid whey is then pasteurized and dried into a powder for various uses
cheese would be a form of dairy and has properties of milk being a dairy based product.
use different seasonings, spices, and include them with different thingsOk well I can do 1 meal with cottage cheese, another with Greek yogurt maybe. Just looking for some "different" forms of good protein other than the staples like chicken eggs fish beef steak. As I'm sure you all know, it gets old eating the staples and I don't want to rely on powder or protein bars. Just want to try and get a break from the usual stuff.
