I was wondering if whey protein causes constipation. Any ideas? If it does, what can we do to clear it?

It could cause more gas, but constipation? Anyway, why don't you incorporate more fiber in your diet...should clear things up a bit.

I do generally include salas and bananas in my daily intake. However I still ended up with constipation. And this happens only the day after I take whay protein.
