Thick-It®
Thick-It® Instant Food Thickener quickly and easily thickens beverages and pureed foods without changing their appearance, aroma or taste. It is used by healthcare professionals in hospitals and nursing homes for people experiencing swallowing problems or dysphagia. For those individuals coping with dysphagia at home, Thick-It Instant Food Thickener is also available through retail pharmacies.
Introduced in 1987, Thick-It was the first instant food thickener on the market. It was joined in 2005 by Thick-It Purees; a line of great-tasting, shelf-stable pureed foods. Thick-It Purees are ideal for consumers needing the convenience of “heat and serve” pureed foods and/or for emergency needs. Their development, carefully overseen by Precision Foods’ Registered Dietitian, was driven by a passionate commitment to deliver pureed food with reliable consistency, proper nutrition and superior flavor. These new purees are just now being introduced into retail pharmacies. Ask your pharmacist about them!
For nearly 20 years, health professionals caring for patients with dysphagia, and consumers coping with swallowing disorders at home, have relied on quality Thick-It products to help bring enjoyment back to eating.
