LONDON, UK. May 21st, 2025 – My Doctor’s Recipe, the health and nutrition brand dedicated to creating innovative products that promote recovery and wellbeing, has launched Nutri-Ice®, a revolutionary, artisan frozen supplement that is handmade in Kent.
Primarily designed to support individuals undergoing cancer treatment, it has been developed by leading oncologists, nutrition experts, and chefs. Combining nutrition with indulgence, the company claims the product is set to be a game-changer in the world of healthcare-focused food products.
Nutri-Ice is a delicious frozen nutritional supplement that offers essential nutrients in every scoop. With over 10g of protein, 300 calories per serving, and a blend of over 30% of the daily recommended intake of key vitamins and minerals, Nutri-Ice was initially developed to aid patients undergoing cancer treatment who struggle with a reduced appetite. The portion sizes are small, at 100g a tub, making it easier for people who are unwell to manage it.
The product’s formulation is designed to help people maintain a healthy weight during or after treatment, but it is also intended for those feeling unwell, unable to manage solid foods, or those recovering from physical exertion or sports who want to ensure they’re getting the right nutrients to help their body maximise its health potential.
My Doctor’s Recipe was born from a deeply personal journey. When co-founder Alan Mackenzie lost his wife Alison to cancer in 2016, he was devastated. During her treatment, Alison struggled to eat, finding most nutritional supplements unpalatable and unappealing. Ice cream and ice lollies were some of the only foods she could tolerate.
Alison wasn’t alone in her experience of the supplements; My Doctor’s Recipe research shows that 80% of patients asked disliked the synthetic taste of current health supplements available in hospitals and care homes.
Determined to improve the patient experience for others facing similar challenges, Alan partnered with leading London oncologist Dr. Jon Krell and published chef Alan Rosenthal to create a range of nutrient-rich foods designed to support recovery. Together, they’ve created a range of products that promote well-being and recovery, with Nutri-Ice leading the charge in reimagining healthcare-focused nutrition. The health supplement is created in Kent, where it is handmade by the team behind the award-winning artisan ice cream brand, Simply Ice Cream.
Nutri-Ice is fortified with a proprietary blend of vitamins and minerals, encapsulated in the breakthrough DJK+ formula. Designed by Dr. Jon Krell, an experienced oncologist and researcher with over 20 years of clinical experience, the DJK+ formula delivers essential nutrients without compromising on taste. The encapsulation process ensures that the vitamins and minerals are digested at the optimum time to give maximum benefit to the body, whilst having no effect on taste. It is also odorless. DJK+ includes vital nutrients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Zinc, Iron, Magnesium, Vitamin D, and Vitamin B12, all of which are essential for overall health and well-being. This game-changing product is the first of its kind to combine high-quality nutrition with the indulgence of a frozen treat.
Growing evidence shows that clinical nutrition intervention can reduce therapy toxicity, improve treatment effectiveness, and help prevent delays or dose modifications. When patients receive the right nutrients in a form they can enjoy, the benefits are profound:
● Reduces post-operative complications by up to 50%²
● Reduces the length of hospital stay by up to 3-days³
● Increases the probability of survival⁴
● Benefits several quality-of-life aspects during treatment⁵
While Nutri-Ice was initially developed for cancer patients with reduced appetites, it is ideal for anyone in need of nutritional support. Whether recovering from illness or surgery, or simply looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle, Nutri-Ice offers a convenient and nutritious way to ensure that the body is getting the essential vitamins, minerals, and protein it needs. It is also unprocessed and does not include any artificial colours, flavours, preservatives or emulsifiers. It is made with date syrup instead of refined sugar.
Nutri-Ice is available in five flavours: Vanilla, Chocolate, Cappuccino, Banana, and Strawberry. All products are made with only a carefully selected range of natural ingredients, free from gluten and unnecessary additives, and are available for nationwide delivery. Nutri-Ice is delivered frozen, and packed with dry ice to ensure the product stays frozen for up to 36 hours.
Pricing and Availability. Nutri-Ice is available for £5.50 per 100ml tub, with delivery costs additional. There is also a range for children, called Smile Heroes, designed to help children who need to increase their calorie and nutritional intake. Consultation with a healthcare professional is recommended before introducing any new product, especially during illness or treatment.
Alan Mackenzie, Co-Founder of My Doctor’s Recipe, said: “One in five cancer patients don’t die from cancer – they die from malnutrition¹. We’re on a mission to transform the recovery journey for individuals across the UK. By offering a delicious alternative to traditional nutritional supplements, Nutri-Ice aims to make recovery a little bit easier for those who need it most.
“My Doctor’s Recipe Nutri-Ice is not just a product, it’s a solution. After losing my wife to cancer, I wanted to create a product that would make a real difference in people’s lives, helping them through their recovery with something they could enjoy. This product was designed by medical professionals to support patients through some of their toughest times, but it’s also perfect for anyone looking to boost their nutrition in a delicious and accessible way.”
Jon Krell, Co-Founder of My Doctor’s Recipe, added: “We wanted to make sure Nutri-Ice isn’t just good for you, but also tastes delicious. For those undergoing treatment or recovery, eating can sometimes feel like a chore. Nutri-Ice provides a solution that’s both nourishing and enjoyable, offering a way to make nutritional support feel like a treat. The science behind DJK+ ensures our product is as effective as it is delicious.
“As someone who has spent my career in oncology, I understand the importance of maintaining proper nutrition during treatment and recovery. Nutri-Ice is more than just food, it’s a source of nourishment that’s been thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of the body at its most vulnerable. It’s our way of making the journey a bit easier, one scoop at a time.”
Nutri-Ice has been rigorously tested and certified for use in private hospitals, ensuring the highest standards of care and quality. My Doctor’s Recipe is the result of a mission, a brand committed to making high-quality, science-backed nutrition accessible and enjoyable for those in need. Nutri-Ice is the first product to launch, redefining healthcare-focused nutrition by proving that you don’t have to sacrifice taste for nourishment, and is already prescribed by dieticians at leading private hospitals.
