Nestle India has come out with a product called ThickenUp Clear, which is a food and beverage thickener that may be utilised to assist patients who have difficulties swallowing, particularly those who suffer from oropharyngeal dysphagia. This project is being carried out as a part of Nestlé India’s Health Sciences division, which deals in the distribution of products connected to nutrition and health.
“Nestlé India has introduced ThickenUp Clear, a food and beverage thickening that is designed to assist people who have trouble swallowing, particularly those who suffer from oropharyngeal dysphagia. It can be given to patients who are having trouble swallowing, which is medically referred to as dysphagia. Some of the disorders that might cause this include head and neck cancer, stroke, and Parkinson’s disease, amongst others. According to the company that makes Maggi noodles and Milkmaid, dysphagia is “a major yet understated health condition that leads to dehydration, malnutrition-led infections, and impaired quality of life.”
Nestlé Health Science is the exclusive customer of the product’s development and production in Osthofen, Germany, which utilises a proprietary manufacturing process.
We nourish those who require additional care, cover nutrition gaps, and deliver innovative solutions for a healthy future as part of our role as a global leader in the scientific study of nutrition. Through the introduction of ThickenUp Clear, we are maintaining our forward momentum on new development platforms and enhancing our footprint in the field of nutritional research. According to Mansi Khanna, Head of Nestlé India Health Science, “This product is an addition to the existing portfolio that addresses various health-induced nutrition issues, thus reiterating our commitment to empowering healthier lives through nutrition.”
The field of nutritional science is where Nestlé Health Science performs their business. Peptamen, Resource Renal, and Resource Dialysis are only some of the products that it offers. Other products in its catalogue include Resource High Protein, Optifast, and Resource Diabetic. In order to raise awareness among healthcare professionals all over India, the team of clinical specialists at Nestlé Health Science is constantly interacting with them.
