A Startup Created Melting Snack Bars Designed For People With Swallowing Disorders

Let’s take a moment and praise everyone who is willing to help those in need. Do you know that 1 in 25 people deal with dysphagia? It’s a swallowing disorder that limits our menu. Yes, sufferers can only eat pureed and baby foods.

Hormel and a few other companies created a series of pureed meal kits with great taste. Nutraphagia is a new startup and it offers a satisfying snack that melts in our mouth.

Tia Bagan presented the EAT Bars. Tia is a speech therapist based out of USA. During her professional career, Tia has provided patient care in hospitals. She even conducted an independent research of dysphagia products. That’s how Nutraphagia was born.

The EAT Bars were launched in January, but these were Tia’s passion project for three years. The idea was born during her work in nursing homes and hospitals. Tia’s patients wanted something that tastes good and melts quickly. The first Amazon launch was really successful.

The bars are made of meringue and flavored Greek yogurt coating. They are available in Dark Chocolate, White Chocolate, Strawberry, Lemon. Each bar has 200 calories, and yes, the product is GMO-free, gluten-free, nut-free and Kosher.

The product dissolves quickly. Lemon was Tia’s first option, because the taste of citrus stimulates the production of saliva, and the bars dissolve rapidly.

This is the best product that has ever made the market. Patients with dysphagia will no longer eat the same pureed meal over and over again.

You can get a pack of 12 bars for $21.49.
