Low FODMAP protein powders are very challenging to find as many contain pea or soy powder and sweetened by bee pollen, fructose or sucralose. My favorite used to be Nature’s Plus Spirutein Shake (tastes like milkshake!) but it was chock full of high FODMAP ingredients. Many FODMAP sufferers find whey protein suitable. While a byproduct of the cheese-making product, whey protein isolate contains less than 1% lactose. While I haven’t to date, found one to taste as good as the Spirutein, below is a list of acceptable protein powders.

Protein Powders

Since many protein powders contain high FODMAP ingredients like honey, agave, fructose, sorbitol, apple, pear or prune juice; below is a list of FODMAP friendly options. I need to be totally honest though: ever since I gave up my favorite high FODMAP Spirutein Vanilla shake, I have not been able to find a replacement protein shake I love. I find some which are flavored with Stevia puckering sweet, while others taste just plain weird. However, I do feel they can be improved if you add some fruit or kale. I actually like using protein powders for baking instead, like the Low FODMAP Chocolate Chia Protein Bars. Ok, I hope that wasn’t a total buzzkill.

  • Nutribiotic Organic Rice Protein Powder: vanilla, plain, chocolate, mixed berry
  • Dr. Sears Zone Protein Powder
  • Jarrow Brown Rice Protein Concentrate: vanilla, berry, chocolate (contain several gums. Gums are not FODMAPs but are fermentable and can sometimes be poorly tolerated)
  • Solgar Whey to Go Whey Protein Powder (98% lactose free): vanilla
  • Biochem 100% Whey Protein Powder: vanilla, chocolate, natural (contains xanthan gum)
  • PreProtein Whey Protein Isolate 6 grams Powder
  • Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard: Vanilla Ice Cream (appears to contain 1 gram of lactose with lactase enzyme added to help digest it)
  • Unjury: unflavored
  • Jay Robb Egg White Protein: unflavored
  • Perfect Fit: vanilla, chocolate (contains gum)
