Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickener is a cornstarch-based powder designed to help people with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) safely enjoy a wide variety of hot and cold foods and beverages. When stirred into liquids, pureed foods, soups, or supplements, the powder thickens to a desired consistency without altering the taste or appearance of the food or drink. It dissolves instantly and maintains a stable consistency over time.

The thickener is fast-mixing and easy to use — simply add the recommended amount to your liquid, stir briskly with a spoon, fork, or whisk, and wait approximately 30 seconds for the liquid to reach the desired consistency. It is recommended by doctors, speech-language pathologists, and dietitians for patients in hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation facilities, and at home. Each 2-tablespoon (8 g) serving adds approximately 30 calories and 7 g of carbohydrates, with 15 mg of sodium.

This 36 oz canister is gluten free, Kosher Pareve, low sodium, and has a shelf life of approximately 2.5 years. Ingredients: Modified Cornstarch, Maltodextrin. No allergens.
