SimplyThick EasyMix | 92 Servings | Gel Thickener for those with Dysphagia & Swallowing Disorders | Won't Alter The Taste of Liquid | Easy to Prepare | 16.9 Fl Oz Bottle with Pump

A real lifesaver for rehabbing my grandmother who'd begun to swallow poorly after hospitalization. No after taste, and very easy to mix. Effectively made just about everything into a safer swallow-friendly food. Including water and tea - if you're considering purchasing pre-jelled water.

If this product is needed, it meets all the expectations. Easy to use and tasteless

I use this for my father, who developed dysphagia after a bout of aspiration pneumonia. This product has been a game changer for us. It’s much more affordable than buying pre-thickened drinks, and I can thicken anything he wants at home—milk, tea, juice—without changing the taste, just the texture. We’ve tried the large tubs of powdered thickener and the pre-measured packets, and honestly, this is better than both. The powders can clump, especially in cold drinks, and they take more time and effort to get right. With this gel, I just use the pump, stir briefly, and it’s ready. I adjust the number of pumps depending on the consistency we need—he uses honey thickness, and it’s been reliable every time. The label says it has 92 servings. I don’t count exactly, but one bottle lasts us about six weeks with daily use. We keep it at room temperature—it’s pretty much always on the dining room table for easy access. If you’re a caregiver or supporting someone recovering from aspiration pneumonia or dealing with swallowing challenges, I highly recommend this. It’s made a difficult situation a little easier.

The product is great. The only issue is the price. The price is half of what the big bottle is, but the small bottle is less than half the size of the big bottle. $80 is already a lot, but to charge $40 for a bottle this small is insufficient.

This item is amazing and works the BEST for my mother who has Dysphagia. She must thicken every thing liquid to a “nectar” thickness to avoid silent aspiration. I would love to give it 5 stars but the cost is a lot for a person who lives on a social security only income. She has to “have” this for health reasons and I feel it should be something that insurance covers. There are cheaper products but they aren’t as good. This is by far the BEST product to use. 5 stars for the product and 1 star for cost.
