Answer to Question 2

The National Dysphagia Diet was developed as standard definitions for foods, liquids, and levels of nutrition intervention for people with difficulties with swallowing. Foods to include at the pureed level (National Dysphagia Diet 1) are foods of pudding-like consistency that are smooth or pureed with no lumps; foods allowed at level 2 are foods that are moist and soft textured such as tender ground or finely diced meats, soft cooked vegetables, soft ripe or canned fruit, and some moistened cereals. The advanced level (National Dysphagia Diet 3) includes most regular foods except very hard, sticky, or crunchy items. Bread, rice, cake, shredded lettuce, and tender, moist meats are allowed.
