Abstract :
The camel milk is the most important and
commonly used food in the tropical and subtropical
regions of Asia and Africa. Camel is a significant animal
that contributes to social persistence of arid and dry agroecologies. Camel’s products like milk, meat and urine has
therapeutic value for different human diseases especially
in the pastoral societies. Mammals produce milk in the
mammary gland lacteal secretion. As it is obvious, milk is
natural food young mammals. Among all lactating
animal in the nomadic people, camel is one of the most
appreciated mammal by producing highly nutritive and
therapeutic milk. Camel milk has essential elements such
as minerals, vitamins, fatty acids, carbohydrates and
protective proteins like immunoglobulins,
lactoperoxidase, lactoferrin and lysozme. Moreover,
camel milk comprises small sized protective proteins or
immunoglobulins which can fight diseases, through
penetration of antigen body and increasing the efficiency
of the resistance of diseases like, dropsy, jaundice, spleen
ailments, tuberculosis, asthma, anemia, autoimmune
diseases (autism), constipation, crohn’s diseases, liver
cirrhosis and also serve as beauty goods. Since, camel is
native and well known among the pastoral society; they
have indigenous information in treating themselves and
their domestic animals using camel milk, as they are
existing at distant zone where community services are in
scarce or even absence and hence, they depends on
traditional medicines. Camel milk is among the items
used as traditional medicine in pastoral communities. The
objective of this paper is to review the medicinal value of
camel milk.
