Hydra+ Water Thick Lemon IDDSI 3 Canada | Ready-to-Drink
Hydra+ Thick Lemon Water IDDSI 3 is a 1L pre-thickened lemon-flavoured water at IDDSI Level 3 (moderately thick) consistency. Canadian hospital dysphagia teams, advanced-needs LTC residents, and SLP-supervised programs use it as a flavour-rotation option to maintain hydration compliance on Level 3 protocols. Ships Canada-wide from our Calgary hub.
Hydra+ Water Thick Lemon IDDSI 3 is a pre-thickened, ready-to-drink fluid for people who need a moderately thick consistency for safe swallowing. Speech-language pathologists, registered dietitians, and LTC kitchen managers across Canada buy this product because the IDDSI Level 3 compliance is consistent case to case. Going pre-prepared cuts beverage service labour by 15-20% in institutional settings, so staff spend more time on patient care and less time mixing and testing.

"Lemon Water at IDDSI Level 3 is the lowest-volume Hydra+ SKU but essential for residents on moderate-thick protocols who need flavour variety. A Vancouver SLP told me: 'When my patient refuses thickened milk on day 4 of an L3 protocol, lemon water IDDSI 3 is what keeps them hydrated.' 1L carton."
Consistent fluid texture is non-negotiable for patient safety in Canadian healthcare. This pre-thickened Hydra+ Water helps reduce aspiration risk, which is the main concern for dysphagia teams. Staff pour and serve. No manual thickening, no viscosity testing. Check our full clinical nutrition range at our medical food range.

Clinical & Modified-Texture Applications
This product is for dysphagia management in clinical settings. It's used for safe hydration in long-term care facilities, rehab patients post-neurological events who need texture-modified fluids, and hospital units that run standardized fluid intake protocols. It also works in assisted living and home care where consistent IDDSI Level 3 fluids are required.
Storage & Handling
Store unopened Hydra+ Water Thick Lemon Tetra Paks in a cool, dry place. For a chilled beverage, pre-chill the case in a dedicated refrigerator. After opening, refrigerate unused product and use within 24-48 hours. Do not add ice directly to the fluid — that will change the IDDSI Level 3 consistency and compromise safety.
