On our previous post on balance diet, we mentioned about different kinds of diet. In this post, we will tell you about the Mechanical Soft Diet that you can use for life.
In this post, we include in our diet the foods that are easy to chew and swallow to help people who has chewing difficulty or disability. Foods can be broken into pieces or particles using mechanical objects such as grinding, mashing, chopping, and pureeing.Below are the tips and suggested way to do this diet:
- Choose food that could be mashed, ground, chopped, puree or blended.
- Cook rice and other cereals until soft. Do not cook it half or over cooked.
- Make sure to work with your hands clean or at least use a glove. Equipment, cooking utensils, and containers to minimize contamination and spoilage.
