Food-by-Food Guide: Pizza, Sandwiches, Snacks & MoreUpdated 3 days ago

Use FODZYME® by sprinkling it directly onto food or combining it with your first bite so the enzymes can contact FODMAPs as you eat. How you apply it depends on the texture and shape of the food.


Meals Like Pizza & Sandwiches

For foods with a flat or layered surface, apply FODZYME® directly to the food.

Best practices:

  • Sprinkle FODZYME® on the first bite, or
  • Sprinkle the recommended dose evenly across pizza slices or sandwich fillings.
  • Apply right before eating so the enzymes stay active.
  • No mixing is required, but chew well to help distribute the enzymes through the meal.

This approach works well for foods that commonly contain hidden FODMAPs like garlic, onions, wheat, or dairy.


Baked Goods Like Cake & Pastries

For cakes, pastries, muffins, or similar items, use FODZYME® where it can make contact with the food.

You can:

  • For smaller portions: Sprinkle FODZYME® on the first bite.
  • For larger portions: Add a little as you go, sprinkling onto each new section before you eat it.

Chewing thoroughly helps ensure the enzymes mix with the food during digestion.


Small or Crunchy Snacks

For foods that FODZYME® won’t easily stick to, use the first bite technique.

This works well for:

  • Pita chips
  • Cashews
  • Blueberries and similar snacks

How to do it:

  • Take your first bite
  • Sprinkle FODZYME® directly into your mouth
  • Chew well to mix the enzymes with the food

After that, continue eating as usual.


General Tips

  • Get FODZYME® into your mouth early - ideally with your first bite - so enzymes are present throughout the meal.
  • Adjust dosing for larger portions or longer eating sessions.
  • Good enzyme-to-food contact improves results, so chew thoroughly.

Use the full dose. Stretching doses to save product often leads to disappointing results. The enzymes need to be present in sufficient quantity to break down FODMAPs effectively - half a dose won't do half the job.
