As someone who eats predominantly a plant-based diet, I am a big fan of vegan powders to round out my diet. They help me meet my protein goals<\/span> without having to eat a lot of extra calories. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I\u2019ve mentioned in other posts, I have never had problems with my vegan protein powder causing me an upset stomach. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, this hasn\u2019t been the case for everyone I know. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some out there that have experienced stomach trouble after adding vegan protein powder to their diet. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It makes me wonder, <\/span>what is the link between vegan protein powder and upset stomach<\/b>? What are the possible causes as to why some people suffer and others don\u2019t?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After doing some research I\u2019ve come to the following conclusions. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are basically 3 main causes<\/b> why your protein supplement may be giving you an upset stomach<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. A lot of vegan protein powders are junk<\/span>. They\u2019re just bad for you.
    <\/span><\/li>
  2. How you consume your protein powder may be making you feel bad.
    <\/span><\/li>
  3. Misplaced blame. It might have nothing to do with your protein powder.<\/span>
    <\/span><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Let me explain.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
