About

What to know

The dominant protein in cow's milk, comprising about 80% of total milk protein and forming a micelle structure that digests slowly. This slow digestion provides a sustained release of amino acids over 5–7 hours, making it useful for maintaining muscle protein synthesis overnight. Used in processed cheese, protein supplements, and as a food binder and emulsifier.
