Several works have been dedicated to the study of the composition of camel milk around the world. In this review, camel milk basic nutrients (protein, fat, lactose, minerals, and vitamin) have been reviewed. Many researchers stated that camel milk has several therapeutic properties due to its particular composition, especially its low cholesterol content and high content of vitamin C. It contains higher percentage of total salts, calcium, protective proteins, and some of the oligoelements, such as iron, copper, and zinc. This extraordinary and unique composition of camel milk makes it an excellent food for populations who live in regions (arid and semi-arid) where plants (fruits and vegetable) are uncommon. This scientific insight into the gross composition of camel milk could encourage consumers to incorporate this food into their diet and encourages dairy industry operators to consider the possible transformation of camel milk and its use as an ingredient in food.
已经有多项研究致力于研究世界各地骆驼奶的成分。在这篇综述中,我们回顾了骆驼奶的基本营养成分(蛋白质、脂肪、乳糖、矿物质和维生素)。许多研究人员指出,骆驼奶由于其特殊的成分具有多种治疗特性,尤其是其胆固醇含量低、维生素 C 含量高。骆驼奶还含有更高比例的总盐、钙、保护性蛋白质和一些微量元素,如铁、铜和锌。骆驼奶这种非凡而独特的成分使其成为生活在(干旱和半干旱)地区人群的优质食品,这些地区的植物(水果和蔬菜)较为罕见。对骆驼奶总成分的深入了解可能会鼓励消费者将这种食物纳入其饮食中,并促使乳制品行业经营者考虑对骆驼奶进行可能的转化,并将其用作食品成分。
