Our Meal Replacement Powder Won’t Upset Your Stomach

It’s Jack, the founder of Drink Wholesome.

Our minimally-processed Meal Replacement Powder can help you meet your nutritional needs without causing digestive issues.

It’s recommended for sensitive stomachs by 1500+ Registered Dietitians, and if it upsets your stomach, it’s free! 

I created Drink Wholesome because the artificial and ultra-processed ingredients in other meal replacements upset my stomach. 

You won’t find a better alternative…Trust me, I’ve tried.

Because It's Easy to Digest

Why Is Our Meal Replacement Powder Safe for Sensitive Stomachs?

There are 3 types of meal replacement powder ingredients that are notorious for causing digestive issues.

They are 1) food additives, 2) dairy-based proteins, and 3) ultra-processed protein concentrates and isolates.

99% of meal replacement powders contain one or more of these problematic ingredients, whereas Drink Wholesome doesn’t.

In fact, there’s nothing in Drink Wholesome you couldn’t find in nature.

Just look at the short list of simple ingredients!

It's Additive-Free

Our Meal Replacement Powder doesn’t contain any food additives whatsoever.

This is good news for sensitive stomachs because certain additives, especially artificial sweeteners, emulsifiers, and thickeners, could cause digestive issues (FASEB J, 2025). 

There are many reasons why food additives might upset your stomach, and individual tolerances vary. 

That said, most food additives are ultra-processed, meaning they look nothing like whole foods. 

This could make them hard to digest for some, contributing to side effects like bloating, diarrhea, and stomach pain.

Certain food additives, especially artificial sweeteners, could also alter the composition and function of your gut microbiome (Eur J Nutr, 2020). 

These shifts, known as gut dysbiosis, contribute to many chronic digestive issues (J Appl Microbiol, 2020). 

Dysbiosis is so problematic because it causes intestinal permeability, systemic inflammation, impaired nutrient absorption (Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr, 2022; Microorganisms, 2023). 

To be fair, little research has investigated the long-term effects of regular food additive consumption on digestive health. 

Avoiding food additives certainly can’t hurt, however, especially if you have a sensitive stomach.

It's Dairy-Free

Our Meal Replacement Powder is free from dairy-based proteins like whey and casein.

The main problem with whey and casein is they contain lactose, a sugar most people can’t fully digest (Am J Clin Nutr, 2019), but you might be sensitive even if you’re not lactose intolerant.

For starters, some caseins release a bioactive peptide during digestion that has been linked to digestive issues (Adv Nutr, 2017).

Casein also forms a gel-like substance in your stomach that slows down digestion (Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr, 2023).

For some individuals – particularly those with cow’s milk protein allergy/intolerance – slow digestion can contribute to bloating and other side effects.

It's Made from Whole Foods

Our Meal Replacement Powder is made from whole food protein sources, not ultra-processed protein concentrates or isolates.

Protein concentrates and isolates have been mechanically and/or chemically stripped of everything but the protein.

This includes the fiber, enzymes, and other natural digestive aids that help you break them down.

You therefore don’t digest protein concentrates and isolates in the same way that you do whole foods (J Agric Food Chem, 2023; Foods, 2022). 

For some individuals, this could lead to their fermentation in your gut, which has been linked to inflammation and digestive issues (Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr, 2017; Mol Nutr Food Res, 2024).

One study even shows the consumption of concentrates and isolates could alter the composition of your gut microbiome (Nutrients, 2018).

For the record, protein concentrates and isolates are generally well-tolerated.

But their impact on digestive health is variable, which means they could be problematic for some individuals with sensitive stomachs.

It follows that instead of using protein concentrates or isolates, I use whole foods like egg whites and almonds, which are easy to break down and absorb.

Our customers experience few to no digestive issues with our Meal Replacement Powder as a result.

Verified Purchase I want to share that I have a very sensitive digestion due to autism, Celiac disease, and a history of ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) triggered by negative digestive reactions. Because of this, it’s especially important for me to find products I can actually tolerate and digest safely. I’ve struggled for years with IBS and have tested countless protein products available in Canada, Europe, and the UK—even single “protein isolates”—without success. Your product is the first I’ve found that I can safely incorporate without causing digestive issues, which makes it truly exceptional for me. IBS

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Meal Replacement Powder?

Meal Replacement Powder is a mix of powdered foods intended to replace the nutritional value of a meal. A good Meal Replacement Powder contains a balance of protein, fiber, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats. The main source of protein in this Meal Replacement Powder is grass-fed bovine collagen peptides. The main source of carbohydrates is gluten-free oats. The main source of fats is almonds. Together, these ingredients will fill you up and give you the nutrition you need to lead a healthy lifestyle.

Why should I use Meal Replacement Powder?

Meal Replacement Powder can be mixed with milk or water to make a meal replacement shake. If you cannot get enough calories and nutrients from other foods, adding a meal replacement shake to your diet can help you stay strong and healthy. Many customers choose Drink Wholesome because it is made from a short list of simple ingredients and for sensitive stomachs.

How should I use Meal Replacement Powder?

To make a meal replacement shake, mix 1 serving of Meal Replacement Powder with 1-2 cups of milk or water. I recommend using a blender, electric mixer, or Shaker Bottle to help the powder dissolve. If meal replacement shakes are not your thing, you can also add Meal Replacement Powder to smoothies, oatmeal, and other recipes. This is a quick and easy way to add extra calories and nutrients to your diet.

When should I use Meal Replacement Powder?

Use Meal Replacement Powder anytime you want a nutritionally-balanced meal, which might be first thing in the morning, as a midday snack, or right after a workout. Eating a nutritionally-balanced meal first thing in the morning will prevent overeating later in the day. Eating a nutritionally-balanced snack will curb cravings. Eating a nutritionally-balanced meal after a workout will help your muscles recover. Most people use 1-2 servings of Meal Replacement Powder per day.

Where is this Meal Replacement Powder made?

This Meal Replacement Powder is made in Plymouth, Massachusetts in a FDA and USDA-inspected and GMP-Certified facility. Drink Wholesome has had the same production team since day one, and unlike other companies, built and manages its own supply chain. Check out My Ingredients to learn more.

How is my meal replacement powder made?

This Meal Replacement Powder is made by dehydrating (mainly roasting or spray drying), milling, and blending simple ingredients like oats, almonds, and coconut. As far as meal replacement powder manufacturing goes, this process involves minimal mechanical and chemical intervention.

Who is my meal replacement powder for?

This Meal Replacement Powder is made specifically for people with sensitive stomachs and chronic digestive issues. It is also perfect for people who want an easy protein boost without extra processing and added junk. This might include kids, seniors, and pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Order Samples to see if it is right for you.
