THICK & EASY® CLEAR Thickened Beverages — Clearly the Best Choice for Safer Swallowing
THICK & EASY® CLEAR Thickened Beverages are specially designed to meet the nutritional and hydration needs of individuals with swallowing difficulties (dysphagia). Created by Lyons Health Labs, this ready-to-serve beverage line offers a dignified, enjoyable, and safe drinking experience for those who require texture-modified liquids. Simply chill, pour, and enjoy — no mixing required.
Key Features
- 8 refreshing flavors — including Iced Tea, Apple Juice, Orange Juice, Cranberry Cocktail, Kiwi Strawberry, Peach Mango, and Hydrolyte® Thickened Water with a hint of lemon.
 - Two safe consistencies: Available in IDDSI Level 2 (Mildly Thick) and IDDSI Level 3 (Moderately Thick) for consistent swallowing support.
 - No high-fructose corn syrup, gluten-free, and Kosher certified for diet flexibility.
 - Shelf-stable with 1-year shelf life, perfect for healthcare facilities and home care use.
 
Why It Stands Out
- THICK & EASY® CLEAR beverages ensure peace of mind and a pleasant experience for both caregivers and patients:
 - Dignified hydration: Helps individuals with dysphagia enjoy flavorful, satisfying drinks safely.
 - Reliable consistency: Every serving is pre-thickened to meet IDDSI standards, removing the guesswork from preparation.
 - Time-saving convenience: Ready-to-serve format means no mixing or measuring — simply open and serve.
 - Visually appealing clarity: The beverages are transparent and appetizing, promoting better hydration compliance.
