    Thick-It Original Instant Food Thickener is ideal for thickening liquids and foods. For people with swallowing problems, Thick-It will thicken hot or cold, thin or thick liquids and pureed foods to any desired consistency quickly, easily and controllably. Simply add the desired amount of Thick-It while stirring briskly and wait 30-60 seconds for most foods/fluids to thicken. Depending on the amount of Thick-It powder you use, you can achieve nectar-like, honey-like or pudding-like consistencies. You can thicken fruit juices, carbonated beverages, milk, tea, coffee, lemonade, broth, pureed vegetables, pureed meats and more.

    • Decreases risk of aspiration

    • Will not over-thicken
    • Contributes calories
    • Will not bind liquids

    What is the difference between Thick-It & Thick-It 2?

    Thick-It 2 is concentrated, so you use approximately 50% less to achieve the same consistencies as with Original Thick-It.  For example, for NECTAR consistency in 4 ounces of liquid, use 2 tablespoons of Original Thick-It and only 1 tablespoon of Thick-It 2.

      Excellent product. I have used Thick-It for years with a person who has difficulty swallowing, especially after they have left the hospital where they used a respirator or suction tube.
