I just noticed this in the store. I currently use whey for post work out and muscle milk post sleep. Is this egg protein slow digesting or rapid digestion like whey? If its slow im thinking of using it to replace the muscle milk.

No, it's fast absorbing. I sometimes use this if i've ran out of eggs, and can't be fu<ked going to the shops to buy some. If you want to slow down how fast it absorbs, have it with some EFA's (Flaxeed Oil, UDO's Oil etc)

Salvatore is correct, egg protein is egg white protein and absorbed nearly as fast as whey is.

Do you mean post sleep or pre sleep? Pre sleep you'd need a slower protein so egg protein would not be ideal. If you mean right after you wake up egg protein is fine but personally I just have a solid food breakfast.

Egg protein is quality stuff though, so if you can use it in your diet, do so. Although preferably use whole eggs :)
