To prevent aspiration while eating and drinking, individuals can adopt specific strategies such as sitting upright, taking small bites, and chewing food thoroughly. Using adaptive utensils or cups designed for easier handling can also help maintain control during meals. Additionally, practicing proper swallowing techniques and, if necessary, working with a speech therapist can further reduce the risk of aspiration. Always ensure that the eating environment is calm and free from distractions to facilitate focus on the task.
