I'd really like to know what makes TP casein HIGHER QUALITY than Optimum or another major brand. Nothing against TP but it's supply and demand like anything else. Milk is high quality protein. Your average cottage cheese is high quality casein. Hell, it contains more than enough of all the "indespensible" AA's for adults and infants. And since we don't know what the profile of eaa's percentage is for bodybuilder's is that is all there is to go on.

I'm going to go back to what I said before. If you are relying on supplements for you main source of protein then maybe you should be concerned. But I doubt it. Not if you are in surplus protein mode. Especially comparing major brands. If you are not reying on sups then the "quality" of a sup is not going to make you or break you regardless of what a PROTEIN SELLER may tell you.

The price is the determing factor for trueprotein vs. optimum or some other. I doubt very much that a mix of casein egg or just casiein will make a difference but it's still more cost effective and you may as well. My biggest issue is comparing one high quality protein to another high quality protein and pretending that some tiny thing will make a difference. Like for instance saying "our protein has more glutamine". In general, pick what you think are good companies and get the most cost-effective. If optimum did happen to be cheaper I HIGHLY doubt that would give you worst results.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
