Dysphagia: causes and risks


Chewing and swallowing disorders (dysphagia) affect millions of people — not only the elderly. Often unnoticed, they can be caused by strokes, Parkinson's disease, tumors, or dementia.

Untreated dysphagia can have far-reaching health consequences. A common consequence is malnutrition, which occurs when the body is not supplied with sufficient energy and essential nutrients. This can lead to a loss of muscle mass, a weakened immune system, and limitations in physical and cognitive performance.

The consequences for patients
  • Increased risk of malnutrition and dehydration
  • Risk of aspiration and pneumonia
  • Anxiety and uncertainty when eating and drinking
     
Challenges for relatives, clinics and care facilities
  • Time-consuming preparation
  • Sources of error in everyday life
  • Lack of certainty in nutrition management

Our solutions: Thixxa® Flow and Thixxa® Calo+


Thixxa® makes nutrition easier, safer, and more versatile for people with swallowing disorders.
 
Thixxa Flow thickening powder for beverages and foods

New: Thixxa® capsule system

Simple. Safe. Standardized.

 

The newly developed Thixxa® capsule system revolutionizes nutrition for people with dysphagia. With pre-measured portions, automatic preparation, and a patent-pending stirring unit, every drink and every meal turns out perfectly — no measuring, no stirring, no lumps.

This means that users in clinics, care facilities, and at home benefit from greater safety, hygiene, and time savings. Whether hot or cold drinks, soups, or desserts, the Thixxa® capsule system makes nutrition not only reliable, but also simple and versatile.

The innovation for nutrition in dysphagia:
  • Insert the cup with the pre-measured portion — no more measuring required
  • Simply start the capsule machine: powder falls into the glass, water flows in
  • Patent-pending stirring unit for a perfect consistency, no lumps
  • Let the drink or meal rest briefly and enjoy
     
Your advantages
  • Always the right mixing ratio
  • No stirring required
  • Hygienic and clean
  • Fast and intuitive — ideal for clinics, care facilities and at home
  • For hot and cold drinks, soups, and desserts
