When I go to a restaurant with my wife, I take 3 or 4 packets with me to thicken about 10 ounces This media kit contains twelve ounces of fluid. You need to adjust the consistency of liquid to the right level. Adding one at a time, you will be able to tell when the mixture is thick enough if you stir it. It is always best to ask for separate ice when thickening liquids that are not ice cold because it helps if the liquid is not icy While I find the packets very convenient for use while out, I prefer to use a canister of "Thick It" For thickening my drinks, I use a little more than six teaspoons of sugar (or more).

One of my husband's needs is thick liquids, so I got thin and thick to give him a variety. One package seems to work fine. You will need 4oz of liquid for this. Since the dissolved particles do not have a distinctive taste, they take on the flavor of the liquid in which they are dissolved. Adding foaming pop to 4 oz of 2 pkg thickens it, so mix it with 2 oz. To complete adding the liquid, add another 4 ounces. All that matters is whether or not my husband is satisfied with it.
As I had been undergoing radiation therapy treatment towards my mouth and neck, I needed to avoid thin liquids so as not to choke. The powder mixed with either liquid or semiliquid turned out fine. It allowed the pills to be swallowed much more easily after mixing the powder with liquid. It is much easier to take down water juice and the like if it is Product of high quality.
Pocket-sized packets can be easily carried in a purse or pocket. You can see if the consistency is right after pouring in a packet in soup or drink and waiting a minute for it to thicken. My travel bag is always filled with several packets, and I always.
For my grandparents, I got these so they would be able to drink less. Granpa reports that he does not taste a difference in the taste of the thickening when he uses the packets. It takes him a while to get used to the texture, but that is to be expected and the whole purpose of the product!.
I have a friend who suffers from Parkinson's disease. I had to remove any drink or food from her mouth because she choked on it. With the Thick and Easy, she was able to slow down the motion of the liquid over her tongue so that her esophagus, not her trachea, was open so she could.
There is no way to flatten out. For safety reasons, you should not use this product. It's nothing to be worried about if you're elderly and are susceptible to aspiration pneumonia.
Despite being easy to use, it disintegrated in everything that it was used for. Orange juice and coffee were used. It was necessary to whip the milk to dissolve it. I remember my dad liked it whipped, but that would require the help of a caregiver so it would only be useful.
My husband drinks this stuff - he drinks water, orange juice, and even coffee with it. Mixing is rapid, and it completely dissolves. The product is excellent!.
