Have you recently switched to a dairy-free diet and suddenly realized your old protein powder is off the table?
Or maybe you’ve heard that most conventional protein powders are loaded with fillers, artificial sweeteners, gums, and even heavy metals — and now you’re wondering what safe, clean protein powder alternatives you’re actually supposed to buy.
If you’re anything like me — or my clients — you’re probably standing in the protein aisle (or scrolling on Amazon) feeling completely overwhelmed.
There are so many options… and let’s be honest: not all of them taste great, and not all of them are good for your gut.
That’s why today, I’m breaking down the top 10 healthy, dairy-free, gluten-free, gut-friendly protein powders that my clients and I personally use and love.
I’ll walk you through:
- who each powder is best for,
- why my clients liked it,
- and what makes each one a great fit for sensitive digestion.
And make sure you stay until the end — because I’m revealing the TOP recommendations LAST.
I’ll also give you a quick summary of which protein powders to try first depending on what’s going on in your body — whether you’re dealing with candida, want the best plant-based options, or you need something for a super-sensitive gut.
As we head into the holiday season — with travel, treats, and routine changes — I hope these recommendations give you easy, delicious ways to support your gut, your energy, and your taste buds.
