Anecdotal experience about Vega that might help others. I tried Vega 4 or 6 times during one month to see if I could use it as my protein shake replacement for the whey-based product I'd been using.

Every time I had a Vega shake in the morning I experienced abdominal bloating, digestive issues, and nausea two or three hours after consuming it.

The first couple of times I wasn't sure if the Vega was the cause or if it was something else going on, but after trying it in isolation (no other food products within 8 hours, only water and the powder) I was able to consistently replicate the issues.

Something in their formulation doesn't agree with me. I'm not 100% sure what it was.
