Understanding FODZYME® Shelf Life and Best-By / Expiration DatesUpdated 17 days ago

  • Home Kit: The best-by date is located at the bottom of the jar.


  • On-The-Go Kit: For travel packets, the best-by date is found at the back of the flap.


Why do you use "best-by" dates instead of expiry dates?

We use best-by dates (rather than expiration dates) because FODZYME®'s enzymes do not suddenly stop working on a specific day.

The best-by date indicates the period during which FODZYME®'s enzyme activity is at its optimal effectiveness, assuming the product has been stored properly.

Is FODZYME® still usable after the best-by date?

Yes—for a period of time.

  • Before the best-by date: Enzyme activity is at peak effectiveness.
  • After the best-by date: Enzyme activity begins to gradually decline over time.

This means FODZYME® may still provide benefit after the best-by date, but it may not work as effectively as it did within the recommended timeframe.


What is the shelf life of FODZYME®?

With proper storage—kept dry, away from humidity, and below 77°F (25°C)—FODZYME® maintains its quality for a good while.

Because enzymes naturally lose activity over time, we recommend using your FODZYME® within one year of purchase for the best experience.

How should I store FODZYME® to maintain freshness?

  • Store in a cool, dry place
  • Avoid exposure to humidity or moisture
  • Keep tightly sealed between uses
  • Optional: You may store FODZYME in the refrigerator to help extend enzyme stability (especially in warm or humid environments)
