About Zymozia-F Syrup (S/F)
Zymozia-F Syrup (Sugar-Free) contains Fungal Diastase 50 mg and Pepsin 10 mg, a combination of two digestive enzymes formulated to support carbohydrate and protein digestion, providing relief from indigestion, bloating, and poor appetite.
Biozia's Zymozia-F Syrup is suitable for children and adults experiencing digestive difficulties. Fungal Diastase (an amylase derived from fungal sources) helps digest starchy foods, while Pepsin assists in protein breakdown, together promoting smoother, more comfortable digestion.
Uses of Zymozia-F Syrup (S/F)
This medicine is commonly used for:
- Relief from indigestion, bloating, and flatulence after meals
- Improving appetite in children and adults with poor food intake
- Supporting digestion of carbohydrates and proteins in individuals with enzyme insufficiency
- Digestive support during recovery from illness
- Management of dyspepsia associated with functional enzyme insufficiency
Indications
Fungal Diastase + Pepsin combination is indicated as a digestive enzyme supplement in functional dyspepsia, anorexia, and states of relative digestive enzyme insufficiency. Fungal Diastase (amylase) hydrolyses starch and complex carbohydrates, reducing post-meal bloating; Pepsin, an endopeptidase active in the acidic gastric environment, initiates protein digestion. This combination addresses both carbohydrate and protein digestive support in the upper GI tract.
How Zymozia-F Syrup (S/F) Works
Fungal Diastase is an amylase enzyme — it breaks down starchy foods (like rice, bread, and potatoes) into simpler sugars that the body can easily absorb. When starch is incompletely digested, it can ferment in the gut and cause bloating and gas. Pepsin helps break down proteins in food. Together, these two enzymes help food digest more smoothly, reducing discomfort after meals and supporting better nutrient absorption.
Mechanism of Action
Fungal Diastase (Aspergillus oryzae-derived amylase) cleaves alpha-1,4 glycosidic bonds in starch, glycogen, and related polysaccharides, converting them to maltose and dextrins for further digestion and absorption. It is active over a broader pH range than salivary amylase, providing efficacy in the stomach environment. Pepsin is an aspartic endopeptidase that hydrolyses peptide bonds preferentially at aromatic and hydrophobic residues (Phe, Tyr, Trp, Leu) within protein chains, initiating proteolysis in the stomach (optimal pH 1.5–2.0). Together, they supplement endogenous digestive enzymatic capacity for both macronutrient classes.
Key Benefits
- Dual enzyme action covers both carbohydrate and protein digestion
- Reduces post-meal bloating, gas, and digestive discomfort
- Sugar-free formulation suitable for diabetic patients
- Broad pH activity of Fungal Diastase makes it effective across varying stomach conditions
Did You Know?
Fungal Diastase is derived from the mould Aspergillus oryzae — the same organism used in the fermentation of soy sauce and sake for thousands of years. Its powerful starch-digesting ability is why it has been used in traditional Asian food preparation long before it was recognised as a therapeutic digestive enzyme.
When & How to Take
Zymozia-F Syrup is best taken before or with meals to ensure the enzymes are present when food reaches the stomach. Shake the bottle well before use. Follow your doctor's or the label's recommended dose and timing.
Always follow the dosage and schedule advised by your doctor — this is general guidance only.
Possible Side Effects
Zymozia-F Syrup is generally very well tolerated. Mild stomach upset or nausea may rarely occur. Digestive enzyme supplements at recommended doses have a very good safety profile. Tell your doctor if any side effect is severe or persistent.
Precautions & Safety
- This is a digestive support supplement — it does not treat underlying gastrointestinal diseases
- Consult your doctor before use if you have active peptic ulcer disease
- Do not exceed the recommended dose
- Consult your doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
Myths vs Facts
Digestive enzyme syrups are only needed by elderly or sick people.
Children going through growth spurts, adults under stress, and anyone recovering from illness can benefit from digestive enzyme support. Reduced enzyme activity can affect people of any age.
Fungal Diastase is made from a dangerous fungus and is unsafe.
Fungal Diastase is produced from Aspergillus oryzae, a well-characterised, food-grade mould with centuries of safe use in food fermentation. The enzyme is highly purified and is safe for use as a digestive supplement.
