Thick-It Food & Drink Thickener, Unflavored FAQs

Can Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickeners be used with powdered laxatives and colonoscopy preparations?

Both starch and the fiber in colonoscopy preparations compete for the retention of water. When you add the starch to the colonoscopy preparation, you actually will see thinning of the product. Therefore, it would not be safe for individuals with dysphagia to consume.

Can Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickeners be mixed with carbonated beverages?

No, it is not recommended.

Will continued use of Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickener cause dehydration?

A person receives essentially the same hydration as if they had consumed a same amount of non-thickened fluid. We recommend you consume as much liquid as you would with non-thickened fluid. It is important for a person to receive a significant liquid intake on a daily basis, unless a physician has advised to limit fluids.

Can Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickeners be mixed in advance in bulk?

Yes, you can mix Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickeners in bulk as long as you keep the unused portion covered and refrigerated. The unused refrigerated portion may be kept for 2-3 days. Do not leave a thickened liquid at room temperature any longer than 3-4 hours.

Can you consume too much Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickener?

There is no maximum recommended quantity. It is important to keep hydrated, which means drinking as much liquid as possible, unless a physician has advised the person to limit fluids.

What is the difference between Thick-It Original Food & Beverage Thickener and Thick-It Original Concentrated Food & Beverage Thickener?

Thick-It Original Concentrated Food & Beverage Thickener is a concentrated formula which means you use less to achieve your desired consistency, resulting in the consumption of fewer calories and carbohydrates. This may be a better option for people with diabetes and those trying to manage their weight.

What is modified cornstarch?

Modified is the method used to process the starch so that it easily dissolves in a cold or hot liquid without having to boil the liquid first.
