TOP BALANCE I:SPEED / Ⅱ:SOLUBILLITY / Ⅲ:POWER / Ⅳ:FUNCTIONAL /
Ⅴ:VERSATILITY
Food Thickeners should not have any characteristics that are stronger than the other. Maintaining the balance of these 5 characteristics are good not only for care givers,but for those being cared for.

How to thicken
In case of a drink that is difficult to get baked
● Add the food thickener while stirring the liquid such as water, tea, milk, juice, sports drink, warm soup etc.
● Will begin to thicken after 1 minute after being added. (Some liquids require 5-10 minutes to thicken especially for liquids that are acidic or high in protein).
For Chopped or Blended Meals
●Because it is difficult to dissolve in meat or fish, etc. adding the food thickener into broth, soup, etc separately and added together is recommended.
● When dishes are put into a blender, please add liquid such as soup and soup while adding the food thickener.
Recommended Dosages (per 100ml of liquid)
For milk or fruit juices, please mix first and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes
before mixing once more time.
Estimation of Thickness
Other Methods
● If viscosity is too thick, add the same liquid and stir to dilute the thickness.
● If viscosity if not thick enough, you can increase it by preparing separately a higher thickened liquid and adding it back into to original liquid to increase the viscosity.
