The About this item section states that it is built for nighttime and between-meal recovery. Each serving provides 24 grams of premium micellar casein protein to support muscle recovery during nighttime and between meals. The listing describes its slow-digesting protein as a convenient option when going longer periods without food, such as during sleep.
