The present invention relates to a disposable dysphagia straw designed to enhance the safe and comfortable consumption of fluids for individuals with dysphagia. In one embodiment, the straw is comprised of a hollow tubular pipe with a proximal end and a distal end, featuring a bendable section composed of accordion-like folds. The bendable section enables users to customize the straw's angle to their preference, ensuring effortless fluid intake without strain. The straw is shorter than the conventional straws and is flexible. The straw can come in lengths from about 3.0 inches to about 7.0 inches. A mouthpiece can also be integrated to one end and a flavor coating can be added thereto. The straw reduces mouth muscle strain and ensures the user can pull liquid through a shorter straw.
