Hormel Thick & Easy® Hydrolyte Nectar Consistency Thickened Water 4 Ounce (Pack of 24)

My husband had tried all kinds of liquids with different flavors and consistency due to his swallowing difficulty from a recurring severe thrush in his throat and mouth resulting from all the inhaler medications he has been taking for his Emphysema and COPD. The Hormel's Thick and Easy, HydroLyte Water with Nectar Consistency, Lemon Flavor seem to have a soothing effect and easily swallowed. It also relieves the dryness in his mouth and throat. I have tried giving him with the same product but in a 48 oz bottle as it was more convenient to obtain upon his discharge from the hospital and before I ordered the product with amazon.com. My husband did not like the consistency despite what it was written in the product. I have also observe that giving him the 4oz. plastic container is better,very handy and saves time and effort. Above all, medically the edema or swelling in both of his lower extremities seem to be relieved as he tend to void more urine due to the additional electrolytes such as sodium and potassium in each plastic container. Therefore, I highly recommend this product due to it's medical healing effect, more comfort and more easily available and affordable with Amazon.Com.with its free shipment and one or two days delivery service.

What I like: Tastes great. Great size. Like individual servings. Easy to take on outings. Provides hydration. Works well for those that have swallowing or choking issues. What I dislike: Nothing! How I use it: With meals, during outings, in lunches, during exertion. Recommendation: A game challenge for swallowing and choking patients.

Packed nicely and shipped promptly

My husband was introduced to this waterin the hospital. Like many people withAlzheimer’s he has a problem swallowing thinliquids. He’s never had an issue with the flavor or thickness so I’m assuming he likes it. It’s also fantastic mixed with other liquids to thicken. The delivery from this company is outstanding. It’s beautifully packed and always arrives ahead of the scheduled date. Honestly it’s like someone in the fulfillment department knows I need this one thing to be easy.

The product has mold in them. Please do not buy and consume.

For some time now I've had something with my throat that made me cough every time I took a swallow of something liquid. Didn't matter if I drank quickly or slowly I was going to cough.I decided to give this a try and it seemed to work. I wasn't cough free but I had improved.I found the lemon flavoring to be acceptable, almost not there.I'm not taking it now but it worked.Really all that's wrong with the stuff, a cup of it will help you swallow 5 or 6 pills at once but it isn't big enough to take care of a meal or curb your thirst.

We purchased these after my father had them during a brief stay in a rehabilitation facility following surgery. He was having issues swallowing liquids and especially pills. They had him try this “thick water” and holy cow was it an amazing difference. My dad made it clear these were to be in his refrigerator when he got home. He never once coughed or choked swallowing pills or water again when using these. He said they taste great so I tried. The lemon was fantastic. It is 100% water but thickened. No after taste or anything.

Never had this problem before.Looked to be packed well but upon opening one side on inside box was all wet as one container must have cracked or opened. Very frustrating.
