Dietitian note

Natural flavors present in quantities less than 2% of the total product are unlikely to cause IBS symptoms.

What is a Low FODMAP diet?

A Low FODMAP diet limits foods high in certain short-chain carbohydrates (FODMAPs) that can be poorly absorbed in the gut. These include specific sugars found in foods like onions, garlic, beans, apples, and wheat. It's commonly followed by people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other digestive sensitivities to reduce bloating, gas, and discomfort. The diet typically involves an elimination phase, followed by gradual reintroduction to identify personal triggers. When followed carefully, often with a dietitian's guidance, a Low FODMAP diet can help manage symptoms while maintaining a balanced and varied intake of nutrients.

Good Value Flavour and Mixing

It mixes pretty well, it tastes good for something made with natural flavours and sweetener it doesn’t have a weird Stevia aftertaste.  I have never been a big fan of Kaizen, I’ve never knowing them to make truly high-quality products but never horrible ones either. They say the whey protein comes from grass fed cows, hopefully it’s Canadian milk whey and not whey imported from China that usually is adulterated and contaminated. I didn’t get any gassiness or bloating.
