Dysphagia Divas-Making Pureed Sandwiches

[@jadejay7619]

I'd be interested to see you ladies eat that food in your videos and see if you enjoy it. I work with people with dysphagia and I'm always trying to create tasty food options or them. If its not appetising to me then its not appetising to them and so I need to do better. I always test my food before I serve it. Pureed bread doesn't do it for me (or many others!) so I'm on a mission to create something tastier that still fits the guidelines. I'd be super unimpressed if someone served me a soggy sandwich.

Is Dysphagia an illness ?? Is Dysphagia difficulty swallowing

[@HippyJohnWales]

Dysphagia can be cused by a number of problems such as a Stroke or Cancer. Mine is caused by COPD.

[@kaydee1151]

Dysphagia is a swallowing disorder. It's not an illness but more of a dysfunction.

[@kathywiseley4382]

My mom's is caused by a any number of things. She has dementia, has had a stroke and now aspiration pneumonia. The dementia can make her brain forget how to chew and swallow properly as can the stroke. The aspiration pneumonia is the result of that.

this is weird? you have to eat bulky and firm foods to exercise your jaws bone and teeth, if you don't, your jaw will get weak. How do you exercise your mouth, and jaw muscles, if all you are eating is pureed foods. it's like eating potted meat everyday.

[@kathywiseley4382]

Most people with dysphasia already have a weak jaw along with poor chewing and swallowing. This is the last resort before a feeding tube becomes necessary. Then they can no longer take food or drink by mouth. So pureed food is literally a lifesaver.
