Native Fuel Micellar Casein
What this means
Elite efficiency — 40%+ of calories from protein. Lean meat, whey isolate, low-fat dairy. 90.9% density puts this in the Platinum tier.
Complete dairy protein (milk/casein), high DIAAS, counts in full.
Note: At 2.2g leucine per single scoop, this product sits below the 2.5g threshold needed to maximally trigger muscle protein synthesis in one serving. Common workarounds: use 1.5 scoops, or combine with another protein source in the same meal (e.g., Greek yogurt, eggs). More on the leucine threshold.
vs Naked Whey (whey reference)
| Metric | Native Fuel Micellar Casein | Naked Whey (reference) | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein / serving | 25g | 25g | 0g |
| Leucine | 2.2g | 2.6g | -0.4g |
| Density | 90.9% | 83.3% | +7.6% |
| MPS trigger at 1 scoop? | No | Yes |
Notes
Informed Sport certified native micellar casein, no artificial flavors or sweeteners. Leucine 2.2g per the manufacturer's labeled aminogram (4.9g BCAAs / 10.7g EAAs per serving) — just under the ~2.5g MPS trigger at 1 scoop.
