Why it may matter

Protein powder is a label-check food. Whey concentrate, lactose, inulin, chicory root, sugar alcohols, gums, and flavor blends can make a powder risky even when the protein source sounds simple.

Gentler swap ideas

Low-FODMAP protein powder - Choose a simple isolate-style formula when tolerated and avoid added prebiotic fibers or polyol sweeteners.
