Good Slow Digesting Protein for Night?

Dukeben Posts: 25 Joined: 2003/08/11	2003/09/05, 08:06 PM I am trying to gain mass and was wondering what a good slow digesting protein was for night time because I heard you can lose a lot of your muscle overnight because your body hasn't eaten anything for eight hours. Also, should I take carbs before bed to gain muscle? Thanks.

Fat-free cottage cheese is great, too. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."
