                                According to the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI), a type 4 diet is classified as a pureed diet, specifically designed for individuals who have difficulty chewing or swallowing. This diet provides food that is smooth and lump-free, minimizing the risk of choking and aspiration.
