Can I eat this cookie if I have allergies or a sensitive stomach? — Glazed Cookie with Banana Filling in Chocolate, 60 gr - ChikaLab

The main protein ingredients in this cookie are whey protein concentrate, milk protein concentrate and milk protein isolate. All three come from milk, which means the product is unsuitable for anyone with a milk protein allergy or who needs to avoid dairy. People with lactose intolerance should also treat it with caution, as dairy concentrates can contain residual lactose.

The manufacturer's labelling may list other allergens, so it is important to read the full ingredient statement and allergen advice on the wrapper before opening the product, especially if you have multiple food allergies or require a strict elimination diet.

For a sensitive stomach, the cookie contains fibre from soluble corn fibre and chicory-derived oligofructose. These ingredients can be tolerated well in small amounts, but if you are not used to fibre-rich snacks, start with half a cookie and monitor how you feel. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a chronic condition, or are on medication, consult a specialist before making it a regular part of your diet.
