whey vs casein vs creatine -- body building protein supplements

 
whey suppliment
fast protein--stay 3 hrs in blood
consume at day--post workout
cheap
consume 1gr per lbs of LEAN weight, not total weight

casein suppliment

slow protein--8 hrs in blood
at night--before sleep
costlier than whey
1gr per lbs of LEAN mass, not bodyweight
high lactose intolerance, Isolate versions have little to none lactose while concentrate has more

Creatine suppliment

fuel muscle for high intensity short term activity.
helps pull a few extra reps in your sets
get strong in long run from training hard
found in red meat
2.5-6g a day--powerup drug

Protein

made of amino acids
increase protein synthesis
help prevent muscle breakdown
helps recover from workouts without losing muscle mass.
When you lift weights or do cardio, your body burns through its stored carbs and fat first, then starts to break down protein (like that in your muscles) for energy.
If you want to build muscle, you need your body to build up more protein than it breaks down
consuming 50g+ Protein in any form might cause stomach issues for some people
keep protein intake constant every day.

Whey Protein Types

1….Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) -->least expensive,reduced protein 55-89%, other 11-45% is fat, lactose, others
2…..Whey Protein Isolate (WPI)-->95% protein, with negligible lactose and fat, medium costly
3…..Whey Protein Hydrolysate (WPH)-->99% protein, most costly, awful tasting.

Best WPI to buy (protein isolate)
take whey protein inside--> 1/2 to 1 hrs after workout
recommend you to go for a reputable international brand.
