Can FODZYME® help with digestive distress after gastrointestinal surgery, such as a gastric bypass, resection, or removal of polyps?Updated 15 days ago

FODZYME® may help manage digestive discomfort after gastrointestinal surgery, particularly for individuals who develop FODMAP sensitivities. It breaks down fructans, galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), and lactose, potentially reducing bloating, gas, and irregular bowel movements. Since surgeries like gastric bypass or bowel resection can alter digestion, gut bacteria, and nutrient absorption, new food intolerances may arise. FODZYME® can support dietary flexibility, especially for fiber-rich foods that contain fermentable carbohydrates. However, it is not a treatment for surgical complications, and post-surgical dietary needs vary. Always consult your surgeon or gastroenterologist before adding FODZYME® to your routine.
