Camel Milk Gains Attention as Potential Dairy Alternative with Health Benefits

Research highlights camel milk's hypoallergenic properties, immune-boosting proteins, and suitability for arid climates.

Camel milk contains bioactive peptides and over 1,100 proteins, surpassing cow milk's 851, with potential benefits for immune health and cardiovascular disease prevention.
It lacks beta-lactoglobulin, a major allergen in cow milk, making it a promising option for individuals with dairy allergies or sensitivities.
Camel milk is lower in fat and lactose compared to cow milk, making it easier to digest for people with mild lactose intolerance.
Camels thrive in arid and semi-arid climates unsuitable for traditional cattle farming, offering a sustainable dairy option in such regions.
Despite its benefits, camel milk production remains limited, with camels producing significantly less milk daily compared to cows, contributing to higher costs.
