If you are living with dysphagia (swallowing difficulty) then you are probably scooping thickener from a tin into drinks. As this can be a stressful and time consuming task we created a more convenient way for you to make drinks free from concern.

We tested our thickeners in all the drinks someone could need or want to see how each ones’ fat, sugar, PH levels and temperature affect the thickeners’ ability to thicken; then calculated the amount needed to make one Slõ Drink to an ideal consistency and put it in a sachet.

You simply mix a sachet with a specific volume of that drink to make a Slõ Drink. It will always look and clear and bright as an ordinary drink and taste as good as it should – it just flows slowly and will be safer-to-swallow.

As a result, whether you are at home, out on a day trip or socialising, you can easily change a drink into a Slõ Drink.

Slõ Milkshakes+ provide much need nutrition and are easily made with whole milk. You can make a day’s supply of Slõ Juice, Slõ Iced Tea or Slõ Water with one sachet. On a day out you can buy and change any 500ml bottle of still-water based drink into a Slõ Drink and when you’re socialising – discreetly make Slõ Wine, Slõ Beer, Slõ Cider and Slõ Fizzy Drinks.

These are the just the start. Our drive is to help improve the everyday lives of those living with dysphagia, by listening to needs and using our unique skill set to make liquids drinkable again. If you therefore have an need or an idea, please tell us and we will see if we can help.
