For those with dysphagia and on a puréed diet, consuming sufficient protein is even more difficult. While a texture-modified diet may not be the diet of choice, the goal is to make it as appealing as possible so that the person consuming the purées can experience a better quality of life.

Dahl and published by the UF Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, March 2013.http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/fs208 Revised July 2016 and March 2020.
