Thank you all for valuable answer.

There probably are more ways for camel milk in reducing blood glucose level and augmenting the need for insulin injection. Please, check the following link.

Have a look at this useful RG link.

The following study suggests that camel milk, as a natural and safe product, can be used as an alternative treatment regimen in diabetes therapy.

Dear Ajaj Ahmed thanks you for your interesting technical question. In this context please also have a look at the following relevant research article:

Effect of Camel Milk on Blood Sugar and Lipid Profile of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Pilot Clinical Trial

Article Effect of Camel Milk on Blood Sugar and Lipid Profile of Pat...

This article is freely available as public full text on ResearchGate.

It is stated in this study that "In conclusion, this trial showed that although consumption of camel milk could increase serum insulin concentration in patients with T2DM, FBS, lipid profile, and blood pressure changes in the camel milk group were not statistically significant in comparison with the cow milk group. These results suggest that camel milk might help control insulin level in patients with T2DM."

Dear @ apparently drinking camel milk helps preventing diabetes. In this context please have a look at the following relevant link:

Camel Milk Helps Prevent Diabetes

https://defeatdiabetes.org/camel-milk-helps-prevent-diabetes/

It is stated in this article that "the prevention and treatment of diabetes through camel milk consumption was confirmed through studies first on mice, then on humans. In the human tests, individuals with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, were shown to have significantly reduced blood sugar levels following two years of daily camel milk consumption."

But then, what shall we do in Germany where there are no camels around? 😳

Good question

Studies indicate that camel milk is a useful nutritional supplement or alternative treatment for type 1 diabetics, and that societies that consume camel milk have a lower prevalence of diabetes in them.

Data from laboratory study and the majority of human studies indicate that camel milk administration can improve glycemic regulation by lowering fasting blood sugar, decreasing insulin resistance, and improving lipid profiles in diabetic patients.

yes camel milk has a beneficial effect on the treatment of diabetes however it seems that many of the articles on such effects use RAW camel milk. Such use is obviously unsuitable and not feasible for EU-USA, studies demonstrating anti-diabetic effects of camel milk should therefore use PASTEURIZED camel milk. The other issue is the one highlighted by Remi Chukwudi Okeke camel milk price is simply too high for a widespread number of users. Efforts to reduce camel milk price will mean to push for an increase amount of milk produced by camels by feeding them with "abnormal" type of food such as insilate, concentrates, alfalalfa and shortening their calving interval and pushing for early breeding. All these action will probably diminish the nutraceutical quality of the milk and expose the camels to an increasing number of pathological syndromes.

Camel milk like any other "superior food": caviar, parmisan, iberian ham, champagne etc , cannot be mass produced, this should be accepted. Efforts to mass produce camel milk will simply reduce his quality to the level of much cheaper and mass produced cow milk.

In my country, Germany, there is only a single farm which produces camel milk. As indicated by Remi Chukwudi Okeke it is rather expensive:

From the German farm: A liter of camel milk costs eleven euros

In this context please also have a look at the following interesting link:

Camel milk can cost $30 a litre. Why is it so expensive?

Interested.

Several researchers have found that camel milk can be used for insulin therapy. It appears to be safe and effective in improving long-term glycemic control. Camel milk is believed to be a suitable hypoglycemic agent in experimental animals and patients with diabetes https://www.researchgate.net/publication/258346576_Camel_milk_a_possible_boon_for_type_1_diabetic_patients

Data available on experimental research and most of the human studies indicated that camel milk administration can have positive effects on glycemic control, by reducing fasting blood sugar, decreasing insulin resistance, and improving lipid profiles among patients with diabetes. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5626114/

A review of 22 research articles determined that 2 cups (500 ml) per day is the recommended dose of camel milk to improve blood sugar control in those with diabetes https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/camel-milk-benefits

Dear Ajaj Ahmed

This is an interesting fact.

Plenty of evidence is already shared by experts, I would like to add :

Benefits of Camel Milk: Evidence from Treatise to Test

• Ancient knowledge

Ayurveda (Ancient Indian system of medicine) has referred medicinal value of camel milk under the classification of "DugdhaVarga" (Milk Classification).

रूक्षोष्णं क्षीरमुष्ट्रीणामीषत्सलवणं लघु| शस्तं वातकफानाहक्रिमिशोफोदरार्शसाम्||२२०|| rūkṣoṣṇaṃ kṣīramuṣṭrīṇāmīṣatsalavaṇaṃ laghu| śastaṃ vātakaphānāhakrimiśophodarārśasām||220|| – (Ref:Charaka Sutrasthana 27)

As per Sanskrit text of Ayurveda, Milk of the camel is Ruksha (dry), Ushna (Hot), Slightly salty, Laghu (Light to digest), Useful in Anaha (Bloating, Constipation), Krimi (Parasitic Infection), Shopha (Odema, inflammatory conditions) and Arsha (haemorrhoids, piles).

Due to its above qualities, Ayurveda endorses its use in diabetes.

• Recent reports

Camel Milk: low in fat and cholesterol + also rich in vitamins and minerals.

A study by India’s Bikaner Diabetes Care Research Center (2005) found its beneficial effects on type-1 diabetes as it significantly reduced insulin doses required to maintain long-term glycemic, or blood sugar level under control.

Another study, [Breitling et al., (2002)] found that camel milk contains high level of insulin which can therefore be used to treat diabetes mellitus type I.

Widdel et al., (2004) demonstrated insulin concentration of 32 µU/ ml which was higher as compared to 23 µU/ ml in cow milk.

Camel milk is also suggested to be used as an adjunct to insulin therapy as it appears to be safe and efficacious in improving long-term glycemic control and reduction of insulin requirement in type 1 diabetic patients (Agrawal et al., 2011).

So the results of epidemiological, animal experiments and clinical research have supported its role to prevent and treat diabetes.

(Source of above information: Ayurveda books/online information)

The data support the efficacy of camel milk. My concern is the availability. How to make it available for the common people? Asia is the hub of diabetes or the centre of the diabetes epidemic.

The data is incomplete. Camel milk has beneficial effects on controlling diabetes (as other products or strategies) but that does not means that camel milk is a miraculous medicine capable to treat diabetes. The correctness of this statement is supported by the fact that Saudi Arabia, a country where the majority of population has a very high regard on the therapeutic properties of camel milk and where camel milk (fresh and pasteurised) is cheaply and easily available and widely consumed has the second highest rate of diabetes in the Middle East (and the seventh in the world) Article Diabetes Mellitus in Saudi Arabia: A Review of the Recent Literature

Please also see the following attached document.

Scientists from Mongolia and China say camels can help researchers make headway in their search for a cure for diabetes.

In the animal's blood, the glucose level is higher and the insulin level is lower. These signs are the symptoms of diabetes mellitus in humans. In the course of a scientific study, it turned out that there are more cytochrome P450 genes in the blood of a camel than in a person or a cow, which ensures the stability of metabolism. Thanks to this feature, camels are able to control insulin levels regardless of high blood glucose levels.

In addition, camel blood VHH antibodies play an important role in genetic engineering and may help treat tumors, cancer, brucellosis, nervous system diseases, circulatory disorders, parasitic diseases, dental inflammation, and flu and diarrhea.

Arvind Singh I have doubts. The values reported in Table 1:The study variables means in intervention and control groups seems not to have a real base when compared using HbA1c (%) to Fasting blood sugar (mg/dl) conversion tables.
