Since dairy is a trigger, are lactose free products safe? for example, Go Veggie cheese is lactose free. is it safe?
Ingredients:
Water, Casein* (milk protein), Canola Oil, Sodium Phosphate, Enzyme-modified Cheese* (milk, cream, salt, natural flavor, enzymes, mono and diglycerides, sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, cheese culture),contains 2% Or Less Of Calcium Phosphate, Organic Rice Flour, Rice Starch, Lactic Acid (non-dairy), Sea Salt, Carrageenan, Sorbic Acid (preservative), Organic Soy Flour, Carotenal (color), Natural Flavor, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Ferric Orthophosphate, Vitamin A Palmitate, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Riboflavin (vitamin B2), Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12. *Adds a trivial amount of cholesterol.

What about products with small amounts of dairy in them. Are they safe or should they be completely avoided as well?
I know drinking a whole glass of milk may trigger symptoms, but what about foods with small amounts of dairy in them?

>AVOID UNTIL TESTED OUT THE DIET LONGER and have had NO SPASMING;There are plenty of things available now with no dairy you might find after shopping longer term on this diet.
>NO DAIRY as we have mentioned due to its casein protein too, even though lactose and fat free. There is soy flour in this alternative "some" are sensitive to, soy protein only is better. Carrageenan is a trigger for ibs in a lot of literature. DAIYA shredded cheddar in particular, barring the ingredients change, is really good at Sprouts and now at the larger Fry's stores!

Many people with IBS can tolerate lactose-free products

Some lactose-free products have Casein in them which is a milk protein. Are they still safe to consume?

What do you think about Whey protein isolate?

I also found these vegan protein powders. Do they look safe to you?

From a FODMAP perspective they are safe. However, after you have tried lactose free dairy and if you find it is still a problem then eliminate all dairy and see how it goes.

I won't take any protein supplement. It is always best to get protein from natural sources. Egg white omelette contains loads of protein or small can of tuna

Naturade Pea Protein - has fructose & inulin- so is high FODMAP - both would be a problem for me

Yes, I figured the Pea Protein wouldn't be safe because of the ingredients. Does the Sunwarrior protein I mentioned look safe to you?

What about this one? Veggie Elite protein powder:
Pea protein concentrate, organic brown rice protein concentrate, natural chocolate mocha flavor, TreLEAFia (stevia leaf extract, trehalose, and monk fruit extract), gum blend (konjac gum, guar gum, and tara gum), salt, and Digest-ALL VP (a vegan enzyme blend).

Thank you!!

No - it's the dairy, not just the lactose in the dairy - new

Thanks Heather! what do you think about these vegan protein powders? do either look safe to you?

Btw, I have heard a lot about food combining (combining fruit+other foods) causes the fruit to ferment and causes digestive discomfort. I have also heard to only eat fruit in the morning on an empty stomach and not again after eating any other food. Do you think any of these food theories make sense to you?

Hi - the pea protein might cause a lot of bloating and gas. You'd have to try a small amount daily and see how you do. If you tolerate soy you can get vegan soy protein powders - I've had good luck with those. Again, try small amounts and see how you do.

The food combining thing is from the 70s and doesn't make any sense to me. Fruit on an empty stomach is a bad idea for IBS unless it's bananas - the insoluble fiber is high, and there could be too much fructose. Much better to chop/cook/blend fruit to break down the insoluble fiber, and have with soluble fiber foods to keep your gut calm.
