Thick-It, the maker of the Original Food & Beverage Thickener, helps to support those with dysphagia and is now introducing an on-the-go solution that will make it easier for those with swallowing difficulties to eat and drink. As ever, the fast-mixing product can be added to everything from hot and cold beverages to pureed foods to alter the consistency and leave the taste unchanged. Now, the single-serve thickener is available in mildly thick and moderately thick consistencies that come in convenient and discreet single-use packets. Thanks to this packaging system, each serving is pre-portioned and no measuring is required.
