Three countries, three different weeks, the same argument 🌍
None of these mention each other. None of them needed to. IDDSI gave the world shared terminology
That's the gap Slõ has always worked in "Does the system around the standard actually hold"

Kept in different appointments. They're not in different lives.
World Alzheimer's Day fell this week, the professional conversation around it split the same way it always does: communication support in one column, swallowing support in another.

IDDSI gave the world a shared language for texture - Level 2 means the same thing in Manchester as it does in Ontario. That's a genuine achievement.
But a shared standard isn't the same as a shared solution.
Not does it meet the standard? — but does the person want to drink it?

Tea that still tastes like tea☕
Ask anyone who's had to give up tea what they miss. It's rarely the caffeine. It's the ritual — kettle on, bag in, milk, the five minutes that punctuate a day🥰

A postcode decides who gets their voice back. And who gets to swallow safely.
MPs debated an amendment to the Health Bill last week, calling for a proper strategy on speech and language therapy waiting times and access.

Same price. Fewer refusals.
An oral nutritional supplement a patient won't finish isn't a cheaper option — it's a wasted one. Same price per drink, safer to drink, easier to make - enjoyable to finish is worth more than the cheapest tub on the shelf.

The tidiest sign of a bad drink. 🥛 An empty glass looks like nothing happened.
That empty glass says it all.

New Cyprus population survey: 18.3% of adults screen positive for dysphagia symptoms — and one of the two age peaks is 18-25, not just over-65s. Referral pathways built around "old age" alone might be missing people.

New meta-analysis compares electrical stimulation modalities for post-stroke dysphagia. 🧠
Rehab and safe hydration were never competing priorities — same patient, same day. 😊

New bibliometric review: 465 studies across 32 countries make up the evidence base behind IDDSI's own consistency guidance. The gap flagged: how "severity" gets defined study to study. Good audit of the foundation.

IDDSI has flagged framework changes coming this Autumn. ✏️ We'll read the fine print properly when it lands, same as we did for V2.2. 🧐

A recommendation that's filed and forgotten never actually happened. Same logic applies to a drink that's the right IDDSI level on paper but never gets finished.

Six tablets before breakfast is also a swallowing test. 💊
Pill-Eze wraps around the tablet so preparation isn't down to memory, shift after shift. 🥄

New systematic review in the journal Dysphagia examines exactly what our product range is built on: how liquid consistency and food texture affect swallowing safety. ✅ Good company to keep. 😊
