David’s Gelato creates ice creams that relieve dry mouth in collaboration with LUMC


David’s Gelato, in collaboration with nutritionist Rick Stil from the Leiden University Medical Centre (LUMC), has developed a unique ice cream designed to alleviate dry mouth, a common issue among patients undergoing treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, or those on certain medications. The ice cream contains a natural extract from the Sichuan Button® flower, which gently stimulates the salivary glands to produce more saliva, providing immediate relief. Made with fresh fruit and free from artificial colors or flavors, the ice cream offers a pleasant and healthy alternative to traditional remedies. It is available in three flavors: frambana (raspberry-banana), mango, and tropical, and can be purchased at David’s Gelato in Gouda and the LUMC restaurant.
