Episode 77: Demystifying Transitional Foods - What is a True Meltable Snack? with Reva Barewal, DDS, MS, Dipl ABDSM
How do we move from discovering a problem our patients face to developing an innovative solution? The pattern of innovation, deeply rooted in collaboration across disciplines will be explored. The innovation stemmed from an understanding of the change in the dining experience for someone with dysphagia and their caregiver. We will focus on snack time as an opportunity to re-create the slow grazing behaviors that can lead to increased nutrition.
Benefits of increasing snacking frequency and snacking options with dysphagia will be shared. Transitional foods can help with increasing snacking options for dysphagia sufferers but it is a poorly understood category in the IDDSI pyramid. It is often offered as a training food for the pediatric population but its potential will be untapped for the adult population as well.
