In reply to Lisa. I would think that would be fine.

I’ll probably pass on the coconut then – I was hoping to rotate Lactaid milk with something like Silk Coconut Milk for a change.

The ingredients for the protein powder say “Undenatured Whey Protein Isolate” and Natural Vanilla flavor.

It does list Total Carbohydrate at 1g, but Sugars at 0g.

Sound OK?

I have heard that coconut is okay and in small amounts is probably fine but I am waiting to see the actual numbers before I put it on my list. The nuts limit is based on a serving size the amount you would have at one sitting –you could have another serving later in the day. 100% whey protein powder should be fine and low FODMAP–just be sure to check ingredient info to evaluate if their are any other FODMAP ingredients. Remember FODMAPs are carbohydrates not protein.

I also forgot to ask – I drink a protein shake everyday. I found a 100% Whey Protein Isolate powder – is that fodmap safe? I asked the company about lactose and they said it is 99+% free.

If that isn’t safe, do you have any recommendations for a good protein powder?

I recently read that Sue Shepherd moved coconut to the OK list after recent testing. Have you heard that?

I noticed that on your pdf that nuts/nut butters have an amount of 10 to 15 or 1-2 Tablespoons. Is that per day or serving?
