DYSPHAGIAIDE Clear Dysphagia Thickener — Level 2 Nectar, 24 Single-Serve Packets, Xanthan Gum

DYSPHAGIAIDE Clear DysphagiAide Level 2 Mildly Thick (Nectar-like) is a xanthan-gum powdered thickener in single-serve packets designed to reliably turn 4 fl oz of thin liquids into a consistent Level 2 (nectar) texture for safe swallowing.

This compact pack contains 24 pre-measured, clear, taste-neutral sachets created for people managing dysphagia, caregivers, and healthcare settings. Formulated with xanthan gum rather than cornstarch, the powder mixes smoothly into hot or cold beverages, stays clear, and holds the intended consistency for extended periods. It’s intended for adult use (not for children under three) and aligns with common dietary restrictions being Non-GMO, gluten-free, sugar-free, lactose-free, and vegetarian.

How do I use a single packet to get a Level 2 (nectar-like) texture?

Preparing a nectar-thick drink is quick: add one packet to 4 fl oz (about 120 mL) of thin liquid, stir until dissolved, and allow a short rest so the xanthan gel sets. The result should meet IDDSI Level 2 viscosity if measured with recommended testing methods. Always follow local care protocols and confirm texture with your clinician if needed.

• Add one packet to 4 fl oz (120 mL) thin liquid.
• Mix thoroughly—works with hot or cold beverages.
• Wait briefly for full thickening; then check consistency as required.
• Use within your facility’s or clinician’s recommended timeframe.

Why choose xanthan gum over cornstarch-based thickeners?

Xanthan gum gives a smoother, more stable gel that resists separation and thinning over time, unlike cornstarch which can clump or lose viscosity. It remains clear and flavorless, improving beverage appearance and palatability. For care settings, that stability reduces the need for frequent adjustment and improves consistency between servings.

• Maintains consistent IDDSI thickness for more than 48 hours when prepared correctly.
• Clear and tasteless—doesn’t alter the look or flavor of liquids.
• Works in both hot and cold drinks without breaking down.
• Less prone to clumping compared with starch-based products.

They’re convenient for travel, restaurants, work, or social events while still meeting IDDSI standards if mixed properly. Keep in mind temperature and beverage composition may slightly affect setting time.
