Prescription Gelato: A New Role for the Artisan in the World of Health
Gelato that heals? This isn't a fantasy, but a new frontier of the craft! This groundbreaking article shows how a medical sorbet can help rehydrate sick children who refuse to take their medicine. It's ready-made inspiration for entering the functional gelato market, where precise recipe balancing becomes the key to saving health.
Imagine your gelato not only delighting the palate but... saving health. Sound unbelievable? And yet! This article is fascinating proof that artisan gelato can become a powerful tool in the hands of medicine. Scientists faced a huge challenge: how to rehydrate sick children who, due to an unpleasant taste, refuse to drink rehydration fluids? The answer turned out to be brilliant in its simplicity: they hid the medicine in something children love – gelato!
They created a special medical sorbet based on raspberry and lemon-flavored rehydration fluids. The key task was to balance the recipe in a way that would mask the salty taste of electrolytes while achieving the perfect sorbet texture. The effect exceeded all expectations. The children eagerly ate the "medicine," and the gelato therapy proved effective in almost 90% of cases! This opens the door to a whole new world: functional gelato and nutraceuticals.
