Can protein shakes cause ibs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Most patients with ibs benefit from a high fiber diet...Protein shakes have little if any fiber. Also sometimes lactose defiency can mascarade as ibs so if the shakes a mixed with milk and you have a lactose defiency that could cause symptoms. Hope this helps.
