Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure is related to a stable nutritional product, a thickener formulated for dilution into the nutritional composition, a use of the nutritional product, a method for making the nutritional product, a method for enhancing physical stability, especially with regards to rheological and in particular "cohesive" properties of the nutritional product, and a related system. The physical stability, especially with regards to rheological and in particular cohesive properties of a nutritional product consumed in liquid form and containing a beta-glucan can be enhanced by reducing and/or preventing growth of microorganisms in the nutritional product, and/or deactivating enzymes in the nutritional product, and/or preventing hydrolysis of the beta-glucan in the nutritional product.
