My little nephew uses Supercol due to having a laryngeal cleft – he needs the thickener so he doesn’t aspirate. Excellent product!

We’ve used Supercol for our 10 month old since he was around 6 weeks old. Initially we mixed in expressed breastmilk and now we also add to his water. It was recommended by our pediatrician following a diagnosis of tracheomalacia and consequent issues with swallowing/choking and reflux. Supercol helped remove the stress from feeding by making his feeds easier for him to swallow and reducing the vomiting following feeds. This product was genuinely an absolute game changer for us. Would highly recommend!

NTThe product meets our needs very well. We tried many other products but none were as good as Supercol. It is also much more cost effective than the other products we tried. I am happy to, and have recommended it to others in our area.

Our daughter Marie has been using Supercol since she was born. Diagnosed with silent aspiration we were told thickener was a must for ou baby girl. Adding it to her formula was a game changer. 12 months on as we now introduce thinner fluids like water, full cream milk etc we are still monitoring her and adding Supercol Thickener. Easy to use, Great product, efficient delivery times and helpful staff is why we choose Supercol! It has seriously been a life changer for Marie.
Our boy has been on thickener for a few months now due to reflux & suck swallow issues. We have tried a few different brands of thickener until we were suggested Supercol. This thickener is fantastic! It’s light, doesn’t clump, nil smell & it also uses much less product per scoop to most! A much more natural product. His reflux has improved SO much & it’s the perfect consistency for his NG tube. Very happy with this product & have recommended it to others experiencing the same issue/s.

Supercol has been a game changer for us. My son suffers from silent reflux and was at the point of developing a feeding aversion. Since introducing Supercol, he has regained the ability to take oral feeds comfortably and is now the happiest little guy.

After trying another brand, our hospital suggested we switched to Supercol thickener & it was a complete game changer for our little man who has struggled with aspiration since being born premature! His irritated stomach has settled and it works out so much better cost wise! A tub lasts us SO long! The company’s customer service is amazing and delivery is so fast! 10/10 recommend to all!

My son James was born with omphalocele and we have been using Supercol with him for almost 3 years now. It’s easy to use and because you only need such a small amount the jar lasts a long time. It’s been a life changer for us.
