+ LEARN MORE Try our easy-to-digest chocolate protein powder. Our chocolate protein powder is free from additives, dairy, and heavily-processed protein isolates. It is an ideal choice for individuals who struggle with gut issues and have sensitive stomachs, as well as those who seek a protein boost without the excessive processing and unnecessary additives. No more bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, or stomach pain. We have received lots of positive feedback from customers dealing with conditions such as Candidiasis, Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, gastritis, gastroparesis, GERD, lactose intolerance, leaky gut, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), and ulcerative colitis. We encourage you to order samples to see if our chocolate protein powder is the right fit for you.
Most protein powders contain emulsifiers, thickeners, artificial sweeteners, and flavors. These additives can have a significant impact on your digestive system, even in small amounts, and cause gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. Common symptoms include bloating, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, and stomach pain. They occur because additives look nothing like real food and are challenging to digest, particularly for individuals with preexisting gut problems. common additives in protein powder: acacia gum, acesulfame potassium, artificial flavors, aspartame, carob bean gum, carrageenan, cellulose gum, dextrin, dextrose, erythritol, gellan gum, guar gum, gum arabic, inulin, locust bean gum, “natural” flavors, maltodextrin, rice syrup solids, soy lecithin, silica, sucralose, sunflower lecithin, xanthan gum, xylitol When partially broken down food lingers in the gastrointestinal tract, it can lead to one of two outcomes. Firstly, the gut may absorb extra water, causing diarrhea. Alternatively, the additives may feed your gut bacteria, which produce gas. Excessive gas can result in bloating, flatulence, stomach pain, and it can even hinder the movement of food through the colon, resulting in constipation.
Many people consume a protein shake on a daily basis – just think about how fast small quantities of additives can add up as a result! Regardless of whether or not you have gut issues, food additives can disrupt regulatory pathways within the intestines over time. This, in turn, can contribute to the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other systemic inflammatory disorders. Furthermore, food additives, especially artificial sweeteners, can disturb the delicate equilibrium of the gut microbiome – the collection of microorganisms that help you digest food. In summary, food additives pose a threat to both your short and long-term gut health. egg whites, coconut, cocoa, monk fruit the alternative: Protein Matrix Comprised of (Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Isolate, Calcium Caseinate, Micellar Casein, Milk Protein Isolate, Egg Albumen, Glutamine Peptides), Polydextrose, Sunflower Creamer (Sunflower Oil, Corn Syrup Solids, Sodium Caseinate, Mono- and Diglycerides, Dipotassium Phosphate, Tricalcium Phosphate, Soy Lecithin, Tocopherols), Natural and Artificial Flavor, MCT Powder (Medium Chain Triglycerides, Nonfat Dry Milk, Disodium Phosphate, Silicon Dioxide), Lecithin, Cellulose Gum, Salt, Yellow 5, Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium, Papain, Bromelain Many protein powders are made with whey and/or casein protein, which are derived from the production of cheese and yogurt. These dairy-based proteins are infamous for triggering digestive problems, particularly among the third of adults who experience lactose intolerance. Individuals with lactose intolerance lack the enzymes needed to completely digest lactose, the sugar in dairy. As previously mentioned, partially digested food can lead to unpleasant gastrointestinal side effects. Almost all protein powders contain protein concentrates or isolates, which are essentially foods stripped of everything except for the protein. Instead of being labeled as “peas” or “whey,” they are listed as “pea protein” and “whey protein.” Unlike real foods, concentrates and isolates go through extensive mechanical and chemical processes to become protein powder. In certain cases, chemical solvents like hexane are used to extract the protein from its natural source. As a result, the protein present in your protein shake looks nothing like real food. Your digestive system is specifically designed to handle minimally-processed or unprocessed natural foods, not synthetic simulations. Consuming anything other than real food can lead to adverse side effects. While the long-term effects of consuming processed ingredients like protein isolates are still being studied, emerging research suggests that they can significantly disrupt the composition of your gut microbiota.
Apart from its role in food digestion, the gut microbiome serves as a protective barrier against harmful pathogens, plays a crucial role in educating your immune system, and has a direct and indirect influence on various physiological processes. Imbalances in the delicate equilibrium of the gut microbiome have been linked to the development of numerous chronic diseases. Considering this connection, you probably should not use protein powders made with protein concentrates and isolates. Instead of relying on protein concentrates and isolates, our chocolate egg white protein powder is made from pasteurized, dried egg whites. Unless you have an allergy or sensitivity to eggs, egg whites are undeniably the best protein for your gut. They are low in fiber, low-FODMAP, and possess the highest protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) of any whole food, which means they are easily digested and absorbed by the body. Our satisfied customers consistently report experiencing fewer digestive issues when using egg white protein powder than when using any other type of protein powder.
Protein powders are, to put it simply, powdered versions of high protein foods. They are not nutritionally superior to any other dietary protein, they are just more convenient. The main source of dietary protein in our chocolate egg white protein powder is egg whites, the clear liquid that surrounds the yellow yolk of an egg. Egg whites are naturally high in protein, so all we have to do is pasteurize and dry them to make the best chocolate egg white protein powder. Compared to what it takes to extract protein from other foods (peas, milk etc.), this is hardly processing. In fact, our chocolate egg white protein powder is the most natural (least processed) protein powder on the planet.
Adding chocolate protein powder to your diet is simply an easy way to boost your protein intake. Protein powder is not nutritionally superior to any other type of dietary protein, it is just easier to eat. If you cannot get enough protein from other protein sources, protein powder can help you balance your diet. Many of our customers use our protein powder because they have trouble digesting other forms of protein. They choose our chocolate protein powder because is is made specifically for people with gut issues and sensitive stomachs.
We recommend mixing our chocolate protein powders with 1-2 cups of cold milk or water. If protein shakes are not your thing, you can add chocolate protein powder to recipes like pancakes and overnight oats. Check out our chocolate protein powder recipes for more ideas.
Use chocolate protein powder any time you need extra calories and protein. This may be first thing in the morning, right after a workout, or with a meal. Replacing part of a meal with a chocolate protein shake is a popular way to use chocolate protein powder, but drinking a shake as a snack works too. If you are hungry, or simply looking for a protein boost, chocolate protein powder is a great option.
Our chocolate protein powder is made in Plymouth, Massachusetts in a FDA-Registered, GMP-Certified facility. Although we source ingredients from around the world, our primary ingredients (egg whites, almonds, oats, etc.) come from US farms.

Love the chocolate with half of a frozen banana and ice, makes for great smoothie. This is a great product, but packaging is frustrating. Does not close very well. Powder gets all over your hand when trying to level out your tablespoon as the opening is small. Would be nice to purchase a one time measuring scoop for the 5 Tbl serving. Telling everyone I know about this wonderful product.

I was looking for a protein powder for liver disease, and found Drink Wholesome on Google. I really like the taste and how it makes me feel. Compared to other protein powders, it’s not nearly as sweet. It’s also much less grainy that some of the vegan ones I tried.

Hi! I recently stumbled across your products, and I was honestly a little hesitant. I’ve always had a sensitive stomach and hate venturing out on new products that might increase my IBS issues. I’m happy to say that your product is fantastic! I’m so glad I branched out and tried it because it’s incredible! I love your company and what it is providing to all the customers, especially all my fellow IBS people!

I have throat cancer. I am writing today to just say thank you for this product. I have had over 35 radiation treatments and lost the ability to swallow solids during this time due to sores and extreme pain in my throat. Drink wholesome was the only thing I was able to swallow and not feel terrible after eating it for three meals a day (I surprisingly never got tired of the chocolate flavor, even after three months). I don’t know what I would have done without this product and I wish more people going through cancer treatment knew about this. Anyway I just wanted to say thank you and I will forever recommend this to anyone I can.

I was diagnosed with Crohns almost 20 years ago. In recent years I have struggled to find a protein powder that worked well for me and also made with simple ingredients. Then I discovered drink wholesome. I absolutely love this protein powder! It tastes amazing and is low FODMAP so it’s not irritating to my digestive tract. I’m extremely active (rock climber, backpack, weightlift, play soccer, and a multitude of other hobbies) and need to ensure I get enough protein. I can’t rave about this product enough.

Recently my dad and I have been enjoying the delicious egg white chocolate protein. It’s been the perfect fuel, giving us the energy we need to power through the day. We recently came across your brand in search of a quick and wholesome meal that could be served quickly. We used to consistently eat Chic-Fil-A and Arby’s during our lunch break until recently when we started missing work due to gastrointestinal issues. After multiple doctor visits, my dad changed up his entire diet and introduced your products into our household. Together, we go through a bag of protein in about a week.

I love the limited ingredient, doesn’t leave an upset stomach or any lethargic feeling afterwards. I have not tried the vegan ones yet, but I’m going to next. It’s not quite as sweet as I would like, but other than that I like it.

This is the only protein powder I’ve found that my sensory issues will put up with. A lot of the other ones are overloaded with non-sugar sweetener that I absolutely can’t tolerate. The package says to use a blender but I use a blender bottle and it blends ok, sometimes there’s a few bits of unblended powder left at the bottom though. The only thing I would do to make this better is offer an option made with real sugar, or a chocolate one that’s unsweetened so we can add our own sweetener! I’m definitely planning to buy more of this or the meal replacement powder in the future either way.

I just wanted to personally message you and thank you for making such an amazing product! I am super into fitness, so protein is something that I make sure to focus on. For several years now, protein powders (both whey and plant based) have cause me sever stomach issues until I found your product. I have been through numerous bags in the past few months and cannot thank you enough!

I am a strength and conditioning athlete and I have been consuming whey for more than 8 years. I was not a fan of all the additives added in whey protein and their long term side effects. I am a drink wholesome user for the past few months and I have no complains. I take two big scoops once in the morning and evening post workout with oat milk and I feel full and energized. The only recommendation I have is to improve the seal of the zip lock. The last two shipments I received doesn’t let me seal it back once opened.

I had my gallbladder out 3 days ago and your protein powder has been such a blessing during my recovery. Helps me feel full and get the nutrients I need without stressing a recovering digestive system further. And it tastes so good! I’m so glad I found you. I hear all these other people talking about painful gas and diarrhea during recovery after surgery and I know it’s because they don’t have you. I’m so grateful!

I ordered some of your protein last week and I am ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE! I’ve been struggling for a long time trying to find a protein powder that agrees with my stomach and thanks to you guys I FINALLY found one! Every vegan protein and all whey proteins give me stomach problems immediately after I drink them, and with your protein my stomach is finally happy; no bloating, cramps, or terrible gas. So I just want to say thank you for such a great product! I will be telling everyone about you guys! And I must add that it also taste amazing!!! So thank you!!☺️

I like chocolate, but I have bad heartburn so I can’t really eat it. I read that this was good for people with GERD though, so I ordered some anyway. The chocolate sample didn’t give me heartburn, and I ordered a full bag. Still haven’t had a single issue.

I mixed it per directions. Was a bit too chalky. Mixed 1/3 of chocolate powder with the recommended amount of milk and added a banana. Much better. I was not hungry til dinner time. Kept the sweet craving away as well. Did NOT set off my IBS. Hoping this will help me lose some weight. Although I will never be skinny girl like the ones in all the pictures, even if I lose 10 pounds, I will be happy. So far I am impressed. Other brands cost more, taste horrible, and leave you bloated and hungry a few hours later. So worth the money.

Great value in my opinion. I’ve never seen an ingredient list like this, and you can taste (and feel) the difference. Most protein powders are full of crap, and they taste and make you feel like crap. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase 🙂

drink wholesome is so good I don’t even know where to start!!! I probably spend two weeks looking for a protein powder that didn’t cause bloating. I have an extremely sensitive stomach, and even small amounts of certain ingredients can cause problems. A Google Search led me to drink wholesome, and I ordered some samples. I fell in love instantly. Not only did they agree with my stomach, but they also tasted incredible. Blend it with milk, frozen banana, and a few ice cubes. There’s no way you won’t like it!

After trying several other vegan protein powders, I asked my trainer if she could recommend one that didn’t have the nasty after-taste that powders sweetened with stevia or other artificial sweeteners have. She recommended Drink Wholesome, and I love it! No after-taste! It’s my go-to now.

I have long avoided protein powders because of all the additives and the lack of “real food”. I’ve been aiming to eat a more “real food” (less processed foods, less sugar, etc) diet for the past several years and finding Drink Wholesome is like a dream! I grew up drinking chocolate milk for breakfast every day and did until my late 20’s. Once starting my real food journey, I realized what I was drinking was not real food! I’ve also become sensitive to gluten and dairy over the last 5 years. Since it’s gluten and dairy free, I’m thrilled to have discovered this! Drink Wholesome allows me to enjoy drinking my “chocolate milk” once again but to feel great about it since it’s only real food and minimal sugar! When I use my immersion blender to quick blend it up, the consistency is like a melted milkshake and I love it! I add a cup of coffee to it and it tastes like a mocha from a coffee shop! Drink Wholesome is not chalky or too sweet. It doesn’t taste artificial. I’ve even gotten my husband to enjoy it which is big! He hates coconut. I didn’t tell him what it had in it but made him the chocolate protein drink and he really liked it! He could not tell it was coconut. We’re sold!

This chocolate egg white protein powder is anti-bloat, anti-blood sugar dips, anti-artificial tasting. Seriously the best protein powder I’ve EVER tried (I’ve tried literally every brand on the US market, all types of protein powder too). The product is amazing, period. I use it daily to fuel my active lifestyle: in overnight oats, protein shakes, protein smoothie bowls, and baking recipes. Not sponsored, I pay full price for the product.

I bought this flavor by accident and its my favorite flavor that I’ve tried. I do not like coconut, but I love it in this protein powder. It gives it a subtle sweetness. When you open the bag you smell coconut and real cocoa, no weird artificial aromas. Tastes delicious with milk and ice. Blends well in a magic bullet.

Tastes like chocolate milk with a little less sweetness. I love it and the ingredients! It does not come with scoop and the scoop you can buy is not equal to one serving, so I’d save the $1 and just weigh it out yourself. No complaints!
