It is an amorphous solid that lacks any taste or odor in its original configuration, due to which it forms an essential ingredient in yogurt, milk, and cheese. Casein contains additional elements, such as amino acids, carbohydrates, and essential minerals, which are instrumental in repairing and building tissues and muscles.  Comparatively, casein is digested slower than other proteins, which further helps in reducing appetite and increasing the feeling of fullness. As a result, it is primarily used in cheese-making, infant formulas, and dietary supplements. Regular consumption of casein protein helps in enhancing the metabolic rate, minimizing the effects of enamel erosion, and accelerating muscle building and preserving lean muscle tissues. In addition to this, it comprises emulsifying capabilities that are beneficial in micro compositions to formulate nutraceuticals through heat gelation and enzyme crosslinking.
