Trick milk is an anti-aging medicine god?

Many experts and famous people from ancient times, such as the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra, are fond of donkey milk because they believe it to be a "medicinal god" curing many diseases, especially excellent anti-aging ability.

The therapeutic properties of donkey milk were first mentioned for the first time by the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates, who was considered the father of the greatest medicine and the greatest physician in his time. Hippocrates praised donkey milk for its resistance to many body diseases, including liver problems, fever, infectious diseases, intoxication, joint pain and nasal bleeding.

The Romans then listed donkey milk on the list of products that could cure constipation.

The use of donkey milk as a moisturizer in cosmetics originates from Cleopatra. The famous Queen of Egypt used milk from over 700 donkeys to bathe daily. This is said to help "remove facial wrinkles, make skin smoother and maintain a whiter look" as praised by the Roman author Pliny the Elder.

Of course, people also drink donkey milk as part of their daily diet. Fresh donkey milk began to be widely used in 19th century London as an alternative to heavily mixed cow's milk, launched by dairy producers.

According to history books, Egyptian Queen Cleopatra used bath milk to keep her skin fresh.

Currently, more and more people avoid using cow's milk products because of dairy allergies and choosing alternative products. Trick milk is therefore tending to be "favored" again, especially when Pope Francis recently spoke out, when he was young he was replaced with breast milk with donkey milk.

Can donkey milk repeat the success of goat and sheep milk and more recently, camel milk in the consumer market? Experts say that, with its richness in lactose and low fat content, donkey milk is the most closely related animal milk. Nutritional characteristics may make it more appropriate for 2-6% of the population with cow's milk allergy in the world, according to a UN study.

Trick milk is also rich in vitamins as well as containing a large amount of antibacterial and anti-allergy proteins, which are thought to help ease skin conditions, such as psoriasis, eczema, and respiratory diseases like asthma. , bronchitis.

Pieris Georgiadis, owner of Cyprus' largest donkey dairy farm, even asked the Cyprus University of Technology in Limassol to oversee his work. Dr. Photis Papademas, expert on dairy issues, conducted interviews with people who had been drinking donkey milk regularly for 2-3 months.

The results showed that users had obtained some remarkable results, especially children with asthma or coughing and some people with dermatological diseases such as eczema or psoriasis. Dr. Papademas said, he and his colleagues are expected to promote a clinical study on adults to see if donkey milk is really useful as a long-held concept.

The scientific basis for beneficial judgments for donkey milk is: like humans, donkey has only one stomach. However, we are currently drinking milk from the stomachs of animals such as cows and goats, which require a lot of bacteria to digest their food through a complex fermentation process.

Donkey milk is not only very close to human milk about ingredients, but also contains antibacterial substances and one of these substances seems to be 200 times stronger than in cow's milk, according to Dr. Papademas. This characteristic, in theory, makes fresh donkey milk seem "cleaner" than cow's milk.

However, the current problem is, Cyprus's cheat milk price is not cheap, up to 24 Euro / liter. The average price of this type of milk in other countries is even double that. In Europe, consumer milk is being produced in France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Serbia and Bosnia. Some Latin American countries also participate in this activity. In addition, the donkey will not release milk if it is not stimulated by the presence of the donkey and the milking must be carried out manually.
