Why protein powder makes you bloat

It’s not you.
It’s FODMAPs.

Most protein powders are packed with FODMAPs: carbs your small intestine struggles to absorb. Here’s what happens next.

  1. They pull water into your bowel
  2. Gut bacteria ferment them into gas
  3. A sensitive gut feels it more
Gentle on digestion, by design
