Most people may not have been too familiar with camel milk. But it turns out this milk has many benefits for the body and have a better nutrient content that is known as a 'superfood'.
Camel milk has been widely consumed in almost all Arab countries, this milk tastes slightly saltier than other milk and is often produced as cheese.
UN organizations dealing with food (Food and Agriculture Organisation / FAO) said that camel milk is rich in vitamin B note, C and iron content 10 times faster than that of cow's milk.
In addition to mineral and vitamin contents are high, research has shown that antibodies contained in the alleged camel milk could help fight cancer, HIV, AIDS, Alzheimer's and hepatitis C.
"Camel milk could be a useful addition to food because it contains calcium and vitamin B and has a saturated fat content less than cow's milk," said a spokesman from the British Nutrition Foundation, as quoted by BBC News, Tuesday (31/05/2011).
Another advantage of camel milk is not contain two powerful allergens that have been found in cow's milk, and has a component of the immune system that may provide benefits to children who are allergic to milk and other foods.
Potential components of the immune system in camel milk is expected to help fight some diseases. The researchers speculate that the small size of immunoglobulin or antibodies found in camel milk is more easily allow it to target the disease-causing foreign substances (antigens) that damage a person's immune system.
Dr. Reuven Yagil, an expert on the physiology of Israel who conducted the study for 5 years said that camel milk can be overcome autoimmune disorders that suppress the immune system of a person.
But it still needed further research, because scientific evidence that there has not been enough to prove the effectiveness of camel milk in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Richard F Lockey, MD, director of the division of allergy and immunology from the University of South Florida College of Medicine suggest to avoid alcohol consumption.

Many people have a phobia (excessive fear) in height, a certain animal or the phobia of dark places. But what would happen if a woman has a phobia of men?
This is what happened to Emily Day (26 years) who have excessive fear of men or called androphobia.
"I'm still a virgin. I am not a lesbian and in no way sexually attracted to women," said Emily Day, as reported by Thesun, Tuesday (31/05/2011).
Emily claimed was absolutely terrified of men. His hands were sweating and his breathing seemed to stop in his throat when dealing with men.
"This fear has followed me for life. I can not determine when this started," explained Emily.
Emily said she could see pictures of men with his friend and can judge that the men were handsome. But if it must come face to face with the man, he will have difficulty being in the same room without fear.
Androphobia is an abnormal fear that occur continuously against men. In most cases this condition is caused by a traumatic event, such as never seen his mother abused physically, verbally or had been victims of rape.
But apparently not a traumatic event occurs in the case of Emily.
"This does not mean someone has done something to hurt me. I only fear death because they (men)," said Emily.
Emily is not afraid of being attacked, he just has an irrational phobia that had haunted him since childhood.
"I grew up in households composed only of women and maybe that contributes to this problem.'s Father separated from my mother when berusai six years and I never again saw him," explained Emily.
The earliest memories of her fear of men is at the age of 13. By then he had to sign the package in front of the door and he did not know the man introductory package.
"When I suffered an attack due to see the man, the effect lasted from 10 minutes to 1 hour. Starting with my skin turning red, the more body heat and heat, and when I tried to calm myself, I feel as though I could not breathe , "explained Emily.
After six times the attack, she realized that it happened every time he met a strange man.
"But I do not know why and no way to control it. I tried to fight, but once I felt the attack there is no way to stop it," explained Emily.
When the phobia attack occurred in front of the classroom, Emily said she was licensed and his body was not well reasoned.
"I never yelled at the boys at school, but when the boys grow up into men that can be invited to dating, to me they are big and scary," recalls Emily.
Fortunately, Emily fears dwindle when he was growing up. He is now undergoing psychological therapy and counseling issues.
Emily was given a program of mental and breathing exercises that can help her overcome her fear of men.
"I am now working as a recruitment consultant. Fear met the man was still there and I still get attacks when confronted with a new male face for an interview, but I try to deal with it all the time," explained Emily.

When asked if he would tour again with Queen, Roger said: "We may do. We left it because we all wanted to do different things. We toured the world twice and after the studio album I didn't feel like there was a lot more we could do.
"We didn't want to do it forever, but I enjoyed playing the role for a while, so we'll see."
Speaking at the Ivor Novello songwriting awards, the singer also said how daunting he found it to fill the space left by original vocalist Freddie Mercury - who died in 1991 of complications related to AIDS ' and how much respect he has for the way he gracefully bowed out of the public eye when he became ill.
Paul told BANG Showbiz: "I had to fill a role as well as be myself, and it was quite daunting, at first we were just jamming and having fun, but when they put the full rig up and I was stood in the middle, all of a sudden I realised the enormity of what I'd got myself into.
"I grew to love Freddie. I always had a great deal of admiration for queen and Freddie, but the more I studied him and his life and his death too, there was no poor me about it, he was just very, very brave."
