Celebrate the Swallow!
Swallowing is one of our most essential bodily functions. Did you know that you swallow 525,600 times each year? That’s one swallow per minute! Did you know that you swallow one liter of saliva each day?
Our Mission
The mission of the Swallowing Wellness Foundation is to increase accessibility to excellent swallowing care and improve health literacy for individuals with swallowing disorders. The foundation aims to reduce health disparities for individuals with swallowing disorders by promoting a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to swallowing care through community outreach, patient and family education, clinician training and collaborative research.
