What to know about milkshake

A milkshake is about the heaviest dairy load you can drink. Milk plus ice cream means very high lactose and very high dairy protein in one large, cold serving, and the sugar and syrup push it to a high overall FODMAP score that also makes it one of the harder items on this list for SIBO. The volume is the real problem: you take in far more lactose from a single cold shake than from milk on cereal, and you tend to drink it fast, which delivers the whole dose at once.

Watch for

  • Very high in lactose from milk and ice cream together, a heavy dose in one serving that commonly causes bloating, cramping and diarrhea in lactose-intolerant people
  • Very high in dairy protein, so casein-sensitive people can get congestion, reflux or skin flare-ups on top of any lactose reaction
  • High overall FODMAP and poor for SIBO, because the lactose and added sugars ferment in the gut and a large cold drink delivers them all at once
  • Flavour syrups can add sulfites and extra sugar, and coffee or chocolate shakes add caffeine on top
