Camel milk called as white gold of the desert has valuable nutritional properties as it contains a high proportion of antibacterial substances and a higher concentration of vitamin C in comparison with cow milk. Milk has been a symbol of purity and was often used in religious ceremonies. Healing properties of camel milk were first mentioned in the “Words of The Prophet Mohamed” in the Surah, a section of the Koran. The global camel population, spread across 47 countries, is estimated to be around 26.99 million. About 83 percent of the camel population inhabits mainly the Eastern and Northern Africa and the rest are present in the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East. Camel milk has been acknowledged for a long time in different parts of the world to provide a medicinal use for a series of diseases such as dropsy, jaundice, tuberculosis, asthma, and leishmaniasis or kala-azar.
