Product details
Where this label sits
Ascent Micellar Casein (Chocolate) is one of the protein powders in the Scoop Sense database. Every active ingredient on the panel is listed with its own dose — nothing is hidden inside a blend total. It runs 25 servings per container at the full labeled serving. Everything on this page comes from the manufacturer's supplement facts panel as of July 2026 — never from the marketing page.
Key ingredients & studied doses
- Micellar Casein Isolate · 25 g. Casein is a slow-digesting milk protein studied for prolonged amino-acid release, often used before extended periods without food such as overnight.
- Stevia Leaf Extract · n/a. A plant-derived non-nutritive sweetener used in place of sugar or artificial sweeteners.
Flavors & sweetener
Chocolate is naturally flavored and sweetened only with stevia leaf extract; Vanilla Bean and Chocolate Peanut Butter are also offered in the line.
Who it's best for
A standard-ratio powder — fine as a food supplement when total daily protein is what matters. Derived from the label figures above — not medical advice.
How we log this label
Every entry is built the same way: we read the current supplement facts panel, log each disclosed dose, compare it against the amounts used in published research, flag proprietary blends, and state the cautions plainly. The full methodology explains each step.
This label against the research
How we evaluate labelsEach bar shows the amount commonly used in published human research, and where this label's dose falls against it. Research amounts are context, not a recommendation — they are not doses, and nothing here is medical advice.

Common questions about Ascent Micellar Casein (Chocolate)
How much of a Ascent Micellar Casein (Chocolate) scoop is actually protein?
25 g of protein from a 36 g serving — about 69%. The rest is flavoring, fats, carbs, and whatever else the label lists. A higher percentage means less filler per scoop.
Does Ascent Micellar Casein (Chocolate) disclose every dose?
Yes — the label lists an individual amount for each ingredient, with no proprietary blends. That is what the "label fully disclosed" tag on Scoop Sense means, and it is what lets each dose be compared against the amounts used in published research.
