Amul Whey giving Stomach pain/cramp | Want your thoughts on this
Hi All,
I’m writing while dealing with sharp stomach pain and would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
Background: I’ve used several protein brands in the past without issues (ON Mass Gainer; MuscleBlaze Whey Concentrate; As-It-Is Atom Whey Concentrate). I’m lactose tolerant and haven’t experienced bloating, cramps, or digestion problems before.
What happened: Yesterday I bought Amul Whey Flavoured protein and took one sachet with cold milk at ~7:30 PM. Around 5:00 AM I woke with severe stomach cramps every few minutes and had loose motions.
Notes I’ve considered:
- I’m lactose tolerant.
- Amul Whey is marketed as lactose-free.
- Amul is a reputed brand.
- My diet has been clean (no junk food, only home-cooked meals).
Questions:
- Does anyone know what might cause this reaction after a single serving?
- Is it safe to finish the remaining sachets, or should I stop using them?
- How can I share the batch number with Amul so they can re-check this lot?
Thanks in advance for any help.
