DromeDairy™ Camel Milk Facts: Health

   Camels are truly fascinating animals and generally people tend to be uninformed when it comes to their capabilities. Obviously, drinking camel milk isn’t common in the US, currently, but that is suspected to change quickly. The FDA has recently approved multiple camel milk brands for consumption, which is exciting given the fact it has been used for almost 10,000 years in other cultures. In fact, camels are often considered sacred in places like the Middle East. This milk is sure to be the ultimate superfood of common time.

Here’s Why:

   Camel milk contains up to five times higher iron than traditional cow’s milk and has much less saturated fat. Camel milk contains 25% more calcium than cow’s milk and is an essential source of vitamins and minerals. This is excellent for bone and gut health. Camel milk contains ten times more lactoferrin, an iron binding protein that exhibits antioxidant properties and protects against bacterial and viral infections.

   The taste is similar to cow’s milk! The taste difference is barely noticeable, some people say it has a slightly sweeter profile. Additionally, it is easy to digest, which is why it is renowned to promote a healthy gut. There are often reports of people running into an upset stomach after a glass of cow’s milk. Fortunately, camel milk maintains properties that potentially prevent that from happening.

   Middle Eastern culture shows camel milk maintains medicinal value and has been used as a medicine for thousands of years. It is rumored by researchers to be the healthiest of all milk produced by any animal, given the nutritional implications.

   Camel milk is paleo and whole30 compliant, whereas cow’s milk is not. Research also shows that it is the only anti-inflammatory milk available. Additionally, camel milk is safe to consume if you are lactose-intolerant. While camel milk does contain lactose, it is at minuscule volume, making it practically non existent and safe!
