Not smoothies although I guess you could drink it all just the same. When I’m making the muffins, I mix all the wet ingredients in the blender to turn all the fruits and veggies into liquid with the oil, syrup, eggs, before adding to the flour and oat bran so the muffins are smooth not chunky. The oat bran is soaked in the buttermilk to make it soft. Easy to eat for someone with dysphagia.
I’ve just been using the google AI. I just type AI mode in the search field and it brings it up. Free. A friend is using ChatGPT. I can’t compare since I’ve only used the one but it’s amazing. It also knows all about my many rare medical conditions that most doctors do not. Since it’s familiar with all specialties, it can connect the dots that siloed specialists can’t. I keep my medical history (brief overview of conditions, anomalies, genetic mutations, etc.) in a Word doc so I can just copy paste into AI before I ask questions. Saves time.

@californiazebra YOU are the one that needs a huge hug. Hope you get them....frequently.

How was the dysphagia diagnosed for in your case? For me, I had trouble
swallowing, and it has gotten worse over time. They finally did a barium
swallow. I was actually sitting upright and able to view the pill just
sitting in my throat. They also put a tube down my throat, most likely
looking for an obstruction. IDK
Looking back, I'm realizing I've always had some form of liquid near at
every meal. Is that how they came to that conclusion with you? Same tests?
I'm wondering if being intubated so many times in my life has added to the
problem. Thoughts?
