Texture Modified Food
Texture Modified Food refers to foods that have been altered to change their texture to make them easier and safer to chew and swallow. These modifications are often used for individuals with swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) due to aging, illness, or injury. Common types include pureed, minced, or soft foods, structured to reduce choking risk while maintaining essential nutrition and flavor. The goal is to enable safe eating, improve comfort, and support health without compromising the enjoyment or variety of diet.
