Why You Should Trust Our Reviews
- EXPERT REVIEW PANEL
Our review panel is made up of individuals with many years of experience in the sports nutrition industry, dating back to the early 2000’s. Their tenure gives them knowledge on brands, supplements, ingredients, dosages and more. - FULL CONTAINER REVIEWS
Unlike the majority of “review” sites on the internet, Fitness Informant reviews every supplement on a full-container basis. What does this mean? It means that a review is not written or recorded until the last serving of that product has been finished. We’ve all had products that were great for the first couple of days, but then lost their effectiveness shortly after. We want to ensure you are getting a full review based on a full product. - INGREDIENT EDUCATION
We breakdown each ingredient in our reviews to educate you on exactly what the ingredients do, and what is the proper dosage of each ingredient to effectively do what they are intended to do. - 100% HONEST – NO B.S. REVIEWS
Our number #1 priority is to inform you proper supplement selection through honest reviews. The majority of “review” sites on the internet will push you to buy a certain product based on the commissions they received. Not us. We want you to purchase the highest quality supplements at the best value. We put your health and wellness first. To achieve your goals we want you to use only the best supplements that you can afford. We do this by being honest.

Testing Results and Ratings
We reviewed Kaged Muscle Kasein on five categories. We first start by looking at it’s ingredient profile. This portion of the review looks at the different ingredients used in the protein powder, what their intention is and how effectively dosed are each ingredient. We also look at protein source quality.
We then look at effectiveness. An effective protein powder product will use high quality, proven ingredients, that doesn't cause stomach bloat. This is generally an extension of the profile section. The higher quality ingredients used, the more effective that protein powder will be.
Then we move into the taste of the different flavors we’ve tried. We grade each flavor separately and average the scores for their overall taste rating. We were able to test out the following flavors: Chocolate Shake.
Mixability refers to how well the powder mixes in 8-10oz of water. We use the shaker bottle test. This would be your typical Blender Bottle with the spiral chrome ball.
Finally, we talk about value. Value is the combination of profile, effectiveness, taste and mixability in relation to cost. Another part of value are the competitors and other versions of protein powders on the market.
Ingredients Profile
You won’t find many Micellar Casein Isolate proteins on the market. This is what makes this very unique. The fact that it is an isolate does not speed up digestion (the whole point behind casein is prolonged digestion) but it does increase absorption. Unlike other caseins, a higher percentage Kaged Muscle Kasein will be absorbed by your body because it is an isolate. Being an isolate is also better if you happen to be lactose intolerant. You get 25g of protein per scoop, which is recommended, especially at bedtime if you’re a heavy lifter.
This product does have 7g of carbs, but that is to be more expected with a casein protein over a whey protein. You also get 2.5g of fat and 1g of sugars.
Some unique ingredients you get with this is coconut oil powder, which is very healthy for you. Coconut oil contains MCT oils which are gaining a lot of popularity. Kasein also is sweetened with the use of Stevia, an all-natural sweetener. This product would have received a perfect 5.0 if it did not include Sucralose but most products still contain it today.
Effectiveness
For me this product is very effective because it feeds and fuels me as I sleep. You sleep for roughly 8-hours a day. Your body needs to eat. Instead of chewing something down at 10pm at night that your body won’t break down and absorb why not take a scoop of effective 100% Micellar Casein Isolate? Exactly.
Since taking this I don’t wake up starving anymore. I am able to keep fueling my body and keep my metabolism going on this protein. Because it is an isolate I am able to absorb more of the usable proteins in this.
Taste
Chocolate Shake:
Kasein by Kaged Muscle is delicious. I cannot say it any better. The flavor was chocolate shake and that’s exactly what it tastes like. I feel like I am drinking a chocolate ice cream shake every time which limits any cravings I have for real ice cream.
Mixability
Typically casein protein powders do mix a bit harder than your whey proteins. If I can describe the powder it would be as “sticky” thus making it harder to fully dissolve in the water. They try to “bond” together but the fact that they are “micronized” to some extent it helps prevent any clumping. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it mixed.
Value
Typically a 4lb container of casein protein is going to run you around $50, maybe north of that. Kasein by Kaged Muscle is no different. You are going to pay just north of $50 for a 4lb container, however, most of the competitors out there are not offering a Micellar Casein Isolate.
The majority of competitors are just offering a Micellar Casein product (not isolate). The fact that this is the same price but you are getting it in an isolate form (meaning better absorption) you are getting more value for your dollar.
