What Are The Benefits Of Drinking Camel Milk?

You must have heard the various benefits of milk, but have you heard about the benefits of drinking camel milk? Camel milk is known for its anti-diabetic property. It may also prevent bacterial and viral infections. Making it a part of your diet may improve your immunity and protect against chronic disorders and cancer.

1. May Protect Your Liver

The nutrients in camel milk may help fight viruses that cause liver disease.

In studies, camel milk was found to be effective in decreasing the elevated levels of certain liver enzymes, which is a sign of improvement of liver health (2). It also increases the levels of total body proteins, which are depleted during liver disease (2).

In another study, whole camel milk was found to be effective against hepatitis C virus. The use of the milk has been recommended in patients infected with the virus. However, the efficacy of camel milk in this regard needs further research (3).

It controls the levels of liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST)). Camel milk reduced hepatitis viral load in 75% of the patients (3).

These effects could be due to the milk’s minerals (like iron and zinc) and proteins. They have potent antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and immunomodulatory effects (2), (3).

Camel milk supplementation, along with a controlled antiviral drug regimen, was found to have strong antiviral activity against hepatitis B and C viruses (3).

2. May Aid Diabetes Treatment

Camel milk may help regulate blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes.

Experimental research and human studies show that camel milk can help improve blood sugar control. It can also reduce fasting blood sugar levels, decrease insulin resistance, improve cholesterol levels in those with diabetes, and promotes heart health (4).

In most of the human studies, the recommended dose of camel milk for those with diabetes was 500 mL per day (4).

In an experiment, diabetes-induced rats were fed camel milk for 30 days. The results showed a significant reduction in the levels of blood glucose, urea, uric acid, and creatininei  A left-over compound released at a constant rate by the body. High levels of it can cause problems in the kidneys. in these rats. Their liver and lipidi  A type of molecule made of hydrocarbons crucial for the functioning of human cells. Typical examples include fats and waxes. parameters were also close to healthy controls (5).

Camel milk aids in the increase of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) which helps the body process sugar better: it increases glucose uptake in the body’s tissues and decreases how much sugar the liver makes, which improves insulin sensitivity (6).

Human subjects with juvenile diabetes showed a similar response. Camel milk had reduced blood sugar and HbA1C levels in the subjects (5). HbA1C is also known as glycated hemoglobin, and an increase in its levels elevates the risk of diabetes.

protip_icon Trivia
Kenya is the largest producer of camel milk globally, with an annual production volume of 1.165 MMT (million metric tonnes) in 2021. Kenya is followed by Somalia (0.958 MMT).

3. May Aid Cancer Treatment

Camel milk can induce cancer cell death, and this may aid cancer treatment. 

In studies, camel milk stopped the spread of cancerous cells in human colorectal and breast cancer cell lines. It could achieve this by altering the expression of genes involved in the growth and metastasis (spreading) of tumors (7).

As per clinical data, camel milk proved to be effective against human cancer cells of the breast, larynx, and colon-rectum. Vitamins E and C, proteins like lysozyme and lactoferrin, and immunoglobulins play a critical role in cancer prevention (7).

This milk induces cell death and DNA damage in cancerous cells by triggering corresponding cellular mechanisms (7). However, more studies are warranted to confirm the findings.

4. May Improve Kidney Health

Camel milk was found to protect kidneys from an antibiotic overdose in rat studies. The antibiotic, called Gentamicin, is known to exert nephrotoxic (damaging to the kidneys) effects (8).

5. May Help Improve Symptoms Of Autism

Camel milk may help fight oxidative stress, which was found to cause some of the serious symptoms of autism.

Autism, or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a severe neurological disorder. It commonly sets in before the age of three. It is characterized by impairment in communication and cognitive and social behavior (9).

Research holds oxidative stress responsible for these issues. An increase in the levels of free radicals has shown to worsen autism and Alzheimer’s. Studies show that most individuals with autism have low levels of antioxidants (9).

A 4-year-old girl was fed camel milk for 40 days. Her autism symptoms were reported to disappear gradually. Another 15-year old boy showed similar results post a 30-day camel milk treatment. These patients were also observed to be quieter and less self-destructive after consuming camel milk (10).

6. May Combat Microbial Infections

Camel milk may help fight bacterial infection.

The various proteins in camel milk can help fight several forms of bacteria.

In rat studies, camel milk was found to have antibacterial effects against E. coli and S. aureus. It also could improve antioxidant status, which was otherwise reduced by the pathogens (11).

With its abundant protein content, camel milk can reduce the bacterial count in your blood. It has microbe-killing enzymes like lysozyme, lactoferrin, and lactoperoxidase (11).

Camel milk proteins are similar to the ones you find in human saliva, tears, sweat, mucosal membranes, and milk. They limit the supply of nutrients essential for bacterial growth (11).

It has been found that regular use (almost overuse) of antibiotics may make several microbial strains resistant to medication. Pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Escherichia coli, and rotavirus could become immune to most antibiotic treatments. Hence, infections caused by them turn chronic within no time.

Supplementing antibiotics with camel milk may help eliminate several drug-resistant microbial strains from your body (11).

7. May Treat Disorders Of The Gastrointestinal Tract

Camel milk contains high levels of vitamins A, B, C, and E, magnesium, and zinc. They protect your gut from infections and oxidative stress.

As per rat studies, camel milk can reduce the severity of inflammatory ulcers and lesions (12). The rats showed about 60% ulcer inhibition when fed with 5 ml/kg of camel milk (12).

Camel milk appeared to strengthen the mucosal barrier. It also showed strong ulcer-healing effects. The gastroprotective property of camel milk needs further investigation to understand the actual compounds that are responsible for these effects (11).

8. May Soothe Allergies

Camel milk may help treat food allergies in children

Camel milk has a slightly different chemical makeup when compared to cow milk. Hence, it does not trigger lactose intolerance-related symptoms (13).

In studies, it also appears that camel milk has a positive effect on children with severe food allergies. This milk has immunoglobulins, unique proteins of the immune system. These immunoglobulins (a.k.a antibodies) interact with the allergens in your body. They neutralize the allergens and help treat allergies (10).

In another study, children with food allergies were given doses of camel milk. All 8 of them reacted well and recovered fully from their respective allergies. However, large-scale clinical trials are needed to validate these findings (14).

9. May Help Treat Autoimmune Diseases

Camel milk was found to reduce the levels of globulins, which are a part of a total protein in the human body. Elevated globulin levels were linked to autoimmune diseases, like ulcerative colitis and rheumatoid arthritis, among others (2).

The milk also contains alpha-hydroxyl acids that are known to treat autoimmune skin disorders like psoriasis and eczema (15).

Camel milk may show promise in treating asthma. It has immunoregulatory, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties that may make it effective in treating the condition (16).

10. May Help Reduce The Risk Of Blood Clots

In a study, rats exposed to aluminum chloride showed an increase in their platelet count and improvement in clotting time after the administration of camel milk (17). In another study, camel milk, like cow milk, could help prevent blood clots in diabetic rats (18). The milk was also found to have better antidiabetic effects than cow milk. However, research in humans is lacking. More human studies are needed to further support these claims.

To enjoy these wondrous benefits, you can make a drink with camel milk by blending it with nutritious fruits, or drink it on its own. You can also use it in your tea and coffee.

Apart from the minerals and proteins we discussed, camel milk contains other nutrients that promote overall health. The following nutritional table can give you more reasons to start having camel milk.

 What Is The Nutritional Value Of Camel Milk?

Camel milk is rich in proteins and essnetial nutrients

Camel milk has (9):

  • Protein: 3.1%
  • Fat: 3.5%
  • Lactose: 4.4%
  • Ash: 0.79%
  • Total solids: 11.9%

It has a very low percentage of carbohydrates. Camel milk contains most of the amino acids in fair amounts. Its proteins can be divided into two groups: caseins and whey proteins. Albumin, lactoferrin, immunoglobulins come under the whey group (10). It also has a significant amount of Vitamin B12, omega-3 fatty acids, and lactalbumin (19).

This milk contains low amounts of short-chain fatty acids but high amounts of long-chain fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids like linoleic acid are abundant, which is why camel milk has a better health quotient (10). Since it has a low-fat percentage, it may also help with weight loss or be good for people on a weight loss diet.

Camel milk also contains two other growth hormones other than IGF-1– brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta).

BDNF aids in neuronal growth which is essential for the improvement of learning and memory (20).

TGF-beta helps control cell activity, including cell growth and differentiation. It’s essential for the development of bones and the maintenance of body homeostasis (21).

It also contains vitamins, such as vitamins D, A, E, and B, and especially vitamin C, which cow and buffalo milk might lack. Minerals like calcium also appear to be relatively higher (10).

It is also believed to contain hormones like oxytocin (22). Oxytocin promotes stress reduction, and mood enhancement and acts as an energy boost (23).

This nutritional profile is not the only reason you need to consider replacing your other milk options with camel milk. In the following section, we will explore what makes camel milk so popular and how it is different from the all-time favorite, cow milk.

Why Is Camel Milk Popular? How Is It Different From Cow Milk?

The world is witnessing a sudden interest in camel milk. This is because research has proven the nutritional benefits of this milk. Camel milk has shown powerful antimicrobial effects (1).

Camel milk is a white, opaque liquid with a faint sweetish odor. It is low in fat when compared to cow milk but tastes similar – maybe a little saltier (as it contains more potassium and sodium than cow milk).

This milk has ingredients like immunoglobulins, vitamins B and C, potassium, magnesium, sodium, zinc, iron, and abundant proteins. Due to the high concentration of iron, it may even help people with anemia, though there are not enough studies to prove this (24). It is said to have an insulin-like protein, which gives it an anti-diabetic property. It also contains a higher proportion of zinc than other sources of milk. The immunoglobulins in camel milk may boost your immunity (1).

Interestingly, camel milk gets digested easily than cow, buffalo, goat, and donkey milk (1). Hence, it may suit even those with lactose intolerance. It contains slightly less lactose than cow milk (cow’s milk contains 4.8% lactose) (25).

Isn’t that surprising? This, probably, is the reason behind its popularity.

Procuring camel milk is a challenge for legal reasons. The U.S. FDA had issued a warning letter to an online seller of camel milk (26). Though you can buy camel milk online, looking at the statements made by the US FDA, we suggest you be wary of the claims made about camel milk online or otherwise.

protip_icon Trivia
A dairy cow produces milk for 6 to 9 months), while a camel can produce milk for 12-18 months.

Though camel milk doesn’t cause allergic reactions like other types of milk, it may have certain other downsides. We will look at them in the following section.

Does Drinking Camel Milk Have Side Effects?

There is not enough evidence to state the side effects of camel milk. This is probably because of the fewer impurities it contains when compared to other milk sources. Camel milk has almost no reports of toxicity.

But a major downside could be its price. Camel milk has high production costs. Some countries might have to pay hefty taxes to import them.

It is also not considered ethical farming and lacks the sustainability factor. Moreover, it has low shelf life. Yogurt and curd from camel milk also take longer to process and set. It also has high probiotics potential (27).

Whether camel milk should be boiled/pasteurized or unpasteurized (raw milk) is debatable. Boiling might deactivate the enzymes (lysozyme, lactoferrin, etc.), but a few believe it could kill bacteria. There is less research available to arrive at a conclusion.
