These bars are expensive, but I heard they were the best ones on the market, so I purchased some. Every time I eat one my stomach bloats like crazy. Does this happen to anyone else?

    I love them but I stopped eating them because the bloat was out of control. I get the same reaction from any bar/powder that contains whey protein.

    They contain Isomalto-Oligosaccharides which are a prebiotic fiber and feed your good bacteria. These can sometimes cause bloating if your body is not used to them. I find I can eat one bar fine, but if i decided to have another later the same day then I bloat. maybe try just having half a bar and working your way up to a whole one.
