So yesterday I had a soy milk shake with soy protein powder for the first time. Boy did I have gas all night and into this morning. I thought soy was good for you. Does anyone else have problems with soy products.

I was under the impression that Soya was to be avoided by UC'rs. I do know that certain protein shakes in the past that I have used would turn my rear end into the City Brass Band. I only use a whey isolate one now and it works ok for me providing I keep the fluid intake up.
Is there any other ingredients that may be causing the fanfare?

Some people are allergic to soy (if you have a peanut allergy you are likely to be allergic to soy as they are related in the legume family). Gas is often an allergic reaction. Try avoiding soy for awhile and see how you do. Rosemary

Soy wrecks me. Most Asian food does, actually.

I get gas from it...for sure. But for Chinese food, can't resist tofu.

I usually don't consume soy because of the gas and I get my protein from meat/eggs...but if there's something I want, I'll have it in the evening.

its on my no no list as well.

*edit to add* I use Almond milk for everything. It comes flavored or plain and my kids love it as well.

soy destroys me in any other form than miso -which because it is fermented, is fine.
