Bloating w/Protein powder & pre-made shakes



Recommended Posts

Anyone or any New Sleevers having issues with Protein powders or pre made shakes causing very bad bloating. I use both muscle milk products & I noticed the very bad bloating after I drunk 8oz of the mixed powder (w/water). The 1st thing I noticed my stomach was increasingly larger. I have not had any issues with gas or gas pain since my 2nd after surgery. .

me too, although not all are as bad for me it's not the milk it's the fake sugars and stuff they put in and also some have fibre added in and they are worst make me look 11 months pregnant (I already look 8 months with my flab :) )

I use it to my advantage though - the ones that make me bloat also make me feel full longer and less likely to want to cheat (i'm on pre op at the minute)

I know that xyletol can be a very affective laxative for some people...could that be something in your shakes causing your bloat?

It's definitely something in the shakes or powder that is causing it

No, that's not the problem. I've tried from 1oz-8oz.
