RESOURCE® THICKENUP®

RESOURCE® THICKENUP®

Gives any hot or cold meal more body, while helping your body thrive.

Pureed foods may have some flavor, but extra texture always helps the taste buds. Count on THICKENUP to give shape and body to any meal. This instant food and beverage thickener uses 100% modified cornstarch to thicken quickly without lumping, and maintains its consistency over time.

Swallowing problems should always be diagnosed by a healthcare professional trained in diagnosing dysphagia. Nestlé recommends consulting a speech language pathologist or other qualified swallowing therapist for evaluation of any swallowing difficulties and recommendation of products suitable for your needs.

BEST Thickener Comes With A Bonus

Thicken Up made the last months of my 90-yr old mother's life bearable. She was able to enjoy her mini-Cokes and coffee without aspirating liquid. It dissolves quickly and doesn't turn to glue like some of the other products. After her passing, I had quite a bit left, so I tried it as a thickener in my cooking. It works wonderfully whisked in my sauces and gravies! Up until her final decline, my Mom was a great cook and enjoyed trying new tricks in the kitchen. I feel closer to her whenever I use Thicken Up.

SLP

As a speech and language pathologist, I recommend Thicken Up before any other product out there. The main reason I like the product is because once thickened, it remains the desired consistency without getting thicker with time

BEST THICKENER

My 86 yr old sister not only has moderate dementia, but also neck/spinal problems causing extreme dsyphagia. I have tried every product available as a thickening agent and ThickenUp is the BEST. Other products are "lumpy" and require much more of the product to cause thickening. Thank you ThickenUP

Thicken up

I have Parkinson's disease so dysphagia is one of my problems. Thicken up helps me to avoid pneumonia.

Thicken-Up

This product is great. It is for our 10 yr. old who has swallowing problems. We use it in his milk, juice, and any other foods which need thickening. It is a staple product for his meal times around our house.
