Biological origin

This product is dairy derived from camels, a biological distinct specie.

Its composition reflects camel physiology rather than bovine dairy structure.

Production limits

Camel milk yield per animal is substantially lower than that of high-output industrial dairy breeds.

Production is governed by environmental conditions and herd cycles rather than demand expansion.

Composition & Protein

Camel milk differs structurally from bovine milk because it is produced by a different species.

The protein composition reflects camel physiology rather than bovine physiology. Camel milk does not contain beta-lactoglobulin and does not contain A1 beta-casein. Its casein and whey fractions differ at a molecular level from those found in cow’s milk.

Camel milk contains lactose as part of its natural dairy composition.

These compositional characteristics are inherent to the species and are not the result of processing or modification. Individual responses to dairy products vary.

For detailed technical information on protein structure, lactose content and published research context, see our Composition & Research page.

Preparation

Camel milk powder is reconstituted using standard milk powder methods.

To reconstitute 1 liter of milk, add 100g of powder to 950ml warm water. Stir until dissolved.

Avoid excessive heat.

Pack size

The 300g pack is commonly selected for initial use.
