Do I Need an Extra Dose After 30 Minutes of Consuming a Meal?Updated 5 months ago

If you find yourself eating a meal for more than 30 minutes, it is typically because you are either consuming a larger than average meal or enjoying a meal with multiple courses. When using FODZYME, it is crucial to understand the FODMAP load of your meal to determine the appropriate dosage.

For meals with multiple courses, the FODMAP load can vary significantly between courses. In such cases, it is recommended to adjust your dosage according to each part of the meal. For example:

  • Appetizer: You might require only half a packet of FODZYME.
  • Main Course: A full packet might be necessary.
  • Dessert: Another half packet could be appropriate.

Instead of using two packets at the beginning of your meal, it is more effective to distribute the use of FODZYME throughout the different courses based on their individual FODMAP loads.

Conversely, if you are consuming a single, average meal over a prolonged period due to slow eating, there is no need to use another dose. The initial dosage should suffice for the entire meal.

Understanding and managing your FODMAP intake with FODZYME ensures that you can enjoy your meals comfortably, whether they are simple or complex, without unnecessary redosing.
