A groundbreaking study by researchers at Edith Cowan University has revealed the superior quality of camel milk compared to cow milk for human consumption.
Among the research team is Sri Lankan PhD student Manujaya Jayamanne Mohittige, who is contributing to this innovative work.
The study highlights that camel milk protects the intestines from harmful enzymes and promotes healthy digestion.
While cow milk remains the most consumed and affordable dairy product in Australia, camel milk offers unique health benefits that justify its higher cost.
PhD student Manujaya noted that ongoing research is exploring camel milk’s potential to maintain intestinal health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
This discovery could pave the way for a broader acceptance of camel milk as a functional food in the future.
