Make daily swallowing easier with Nutrisens Gel'Clear Thickening Powder. It instantly thickens your beverages without altering their taste, for safe, comfortable hydration. Suitable for swallowing disorders, it is easy to use both at home and in the medical environment.
When drinking becomes complicated, each sip can become a source of discomfort or worry. This thickening powder is designed for people suffering from swallowing disorders, also known as dysphagia. It transforms the texture of beverages to make them safer and easier to swallow, without altering their taste. So you can continue to enjoy your favorite beverages while reducing the risks associated with poor swallowing.
It works on a simple principle: it acts like an "invisible net" in the liquid. By thickening the drink, it slows its passage down the throat, giving the body time to coordinate swallowing correctly. As a result, you feel safer and more serene when you drink. It's a discreet but essential solution for safe swallowing on a daily basis.
Another notable advantage is that the powder dissolves instantly in both hot and cold preparations. Coffee, tea, water, juice or soup: it adapts to all your habits without altering flavour or mouthfeel. So you can still enjoy the pleasure of drinking, while benefiting from a solution that makes mealtimes more comfortable and fluid.
Its resistance to temperature variations makes it a reliable ally, whatever the preparation. The texture of the liquid can be precisely adjusted, from a slightly thickened level to a denser consistency. This adaptability is essential to meet the specific needs of each patient, particularly in the case of evolving swallowing disorders.
Last but not least, it helps to reduce the risk of false feeds, a major issue for frail patients. By securing water intake, it indirectly helps maintain good hydration, which is often difficult to ensure in these situations. To reinforce this nutritional management, you can substitute it for Gelodiet Poudre Épaississante Neutre, which effectively complements the adaptation of food textures.

Always adapt the level of thickening to the person's ability to swallow, ideally after assessment by a healthcare professional. If the texture is too liquid, there's a risk of false swallowing, while if it's too thick, the desire to drink may be reduced. The trick is to gradually test textures (levels 2 to 4) and vary drinks to maintain sufficient, pleasant hydration on a daily basis.
