Clear DysphagiAide Thickener Powder, Instant Thickener for Liquids and Food (4.4 oz, 90 Serving), Liquid Thickener for Dysphagia, Drink Thickener and Water Thickener, Nectar Thick Consistency & Honey

This is the BEST thickener we have used for my loved one. I do not follow the directions exactly. I pour the liquid into the cup first, then I stir the liquid with a fork constantly, while adding the thickener powder one scoop at a time. That way, it doesn't clump. You have to constantly stir while adding the powder to the liquid. We use a different thickener sometimes, only because our insurance pays for a certain prescription product; so we have no choice. But that other product doesn't work nearly as well. It is starch, and it loosens up if mixed with Miralax or certain fruit juices; it doesn't maintain the thickness. I have to go back and add more after a while of it sitting. So, this Dysphagia Aide is the winner for us. It works wonderfully with the Miralax and all fruit juices. It maintains the thickness and doesn't loosen up after a few minutes. What I mean by that, is once the liquid is thickened, it stays thickened. I don't have to worry about adding more powder if the liquid sits a while before it gets drank. I am so happy we found this, been using it for several years. I just wish our insurance covered it. They only cover certain brands.

Exactly what I was looking for, it saved my day. A small amount per cup makes any liquid into a jello, perfect for a patient with swallowing difficulty. It practically has no taste of its own, doesn't interfere with the taste of food. Tip: add the powder little by little and use a whisk to stir it immediately. Keep stirring until thick (usually about a minute) to get a smooth and consistent texture.

Bought this for my husband who has a tracheostomy and has developed dysphagia and aspiration when drinking and eating. It works well to thicken liquids and no funny taste that he can tell. Also no harmful chemicals.

this thickener has been a LIFE SAVER in helping my mom who suffers with dysphasia and severe swallowing impairment. It leaves no reside, no aftertaste and no chalky texture. Just make sure to spoon in the powder in a dry cup BEFORE pouring in the fluid. And mix it with a spoon immediately after pouring in the liquid for best results. I let it sit for 20 mins prior to giving it to my mom because it does its magic process in thickening up in this 20 mins. This is our 5th purchase of this product. Highly recommend!!!

This is so incredibly different than the other ones in the market. Healthier ingredients and you just need a little bit and stare for a few mins and it gets thick. Be careful gets thick with small amt

The thickener worked, but it made me feel extremely bloated which was counterproductive to staying hydrated and well fed when preparing for oral cancer surgery. I learned this is a somewhat common side effect for thickeners made with maltodextrin - a corn starch one ended up being much better for me.

I have tried a few thickeners and this one wins hands down for me. I don't mix it exactly as the directions say. I do use the amounts recommended, but I put all the powder I need for the task into a small bowl and pour my liquid into a mason jar style glass with lid. With the bowl in one hand and the lid in the other, I add the powder, secure the lid and shake it like crazy! I shake for 30 to 40 seconds. I don't have to wait for it to set this way. It is ready for a straw. If I'm delayed in mixing even for a few seconds though, it clumps and is hard to remedy. That's why the two handed quick trick. The best feature of this powder over the others is that it doesn't continue to thicken after it is thoroughly mixed. I can mix it, let my husband drink what he wants, then store the rest back in the fridge without it turning too thick to use. It stays at the same consistency once it has achieved its distribution into the liquid. There is NO taste to this thickener and it doesn't change the color of the beverage. Other thickeners leave water cloudy. This one has bubbles after I shake the snot out of it, but it is still clear. Same with tea. I have used it for a carbonated beverage a few times. If it has any carbonation in it at all, it foams up immediately. Fortunately for me, my husband is fine with 'flat' sodas so I work diligently to get the carbonation out of the soda before thickening it. This is my go to thickener forever more. And their customer service is exceptional!

El mejor espesante, mejor incluso que el ticket it, con solo una pequeña cantidad logra espesar progresivamente los líquidos, no cambia el sabor y se disuelve de una. He probado otros como el de thick it, pero este le gana 1000%…. No se hace nada de clumps

Highly Recommended for Dysphagia** I recently purchased Clear DysphagiAide to help with thickening liquids and food due to dysphagia, and I am really impressed with the results. The powder dissolves quickly and seamlessly in both water and juices, which is a huge plus. It doesn’t alter the taste of any of the drinks, so you can enjoy your beverages without any flavor changes. I also found it very easy to control the thickness and consistency, which made it incredibly convenient to use. Whether I was adding it to liquids or pureed foods, it did the job without any grittiness, making consumption smooth and hassle-free. The added bonus is that it doesn’t affect the taste of food either, so meal times remain as enjoyable as possible. I would highly recommend Clear DysphagiAide to anyone dealing with dysphagia. It’s effective, easy to use, and doesn’t compromise the taste or texture of your food and drinks. A great product for managing swallowing difficulties!

Best I have used, others I found don't thicken or make clear liquid cloudy

Great thickener, used by someone who has had multiple strokes, makes water thicker so he can stay hydrated. Definitely less than 90 servings though.

This is easy to use and does the job really well.

Excellent product. We had to buy some before got it supplied by doc. I also tried a cheaper one and to be honest they were both good. My colleagues preferred this one. No idea if it tastes because lady cant tell us. Certainly mixes into drink great.
