Even Hippocrates, and Avicenna recognized the healing properties of goat's milk, using them to treat sick people. The most commonly used goat milk for treatment of pulmonary diseases and gastric.

For the treatment of children suffering from rickets, in the Middle Ages it is very widely used cheese is made from goat's milk. The reason is very simple - like cheese contains a large amount of vitamin D and calcium, the lack of which is the cause of rickets in children. But for the inhabitants of the mountainous areas of southern and products from goat's milk had long since become a part of daily diet.

But seriously interested physicians healing properties of goat milk and come to grips with the study of its composition only at the beginning of the 20th century. The impetus for the start of the study was the observation of scientists for babies, for one reason or another deprived of mother's milk. Mortality of those children who received instead of breast milk goat milk was significantly lower than those babies fed with cow's milk.

The Paris Academy of Medical Sciences in 1900 officially recognized the goat milk is a highly dietary product, and recommended it for babies and people with weakened body. In Russia, the most ardent advocate of goat milk has become a pediatrician and child nutritionist VN Beetle, the author of the most popular in the Soviet Union of the book "Mother and Child". It was during his active support and participation in the suburb of Saint - Petersburg was organized farm breeding a special breed of goats brought by special order of the government of Switzerland.

However, goat milk has become a very popular, very soon it became too small for everyone. Goat milk began to be issued only on prescription feeding for malnourished children and nutrition of people with chronic diseases. It was at this time the use of goat's milk has been officially recognized and Russian medicine.

However, after a while goat's milk has gone unnoticed in the shadow of an absolutely unknown reasons. For a long time, and goat's milk and all products made from goat's milk, were considered sufficiently exotic products. Most likely, this is because we are all from childhood accustomed to the traditional taste is cow's milk and cheese, and the perception of products with an unusual taste and smell are always difficult.

Recently, however, goat's milk is starting to take back the old popularity. People began to think about their health, pay close attention to the issues of healthy eating.

The composition of goat milk

The following describes in more detail the composition of goat milk. Its medicinal properties Goat's milk is obliged, of course, its composition. And milk and dairy products contain a part of a huge amount of vitamins, such as A, C, B, D, E, micro and macro.

The chemical composition of goat milk is very different from the milk of other animals. For example, in the goat milk is about 6 times higher cobalt, which is contained in the composition of vitamin B12. And it is this vitamin is ultimately responsible for such vital processes in the human body, like metabolism and hematopoiesis. This feature of goat milk is critical for those children whose health is largely weakened.

Another, no less important and valuable feature of goat milk composition is sufficiently high content of valuable substances such as potassium. Potassium is necessary for proper formation, development and operation of the entire cardio - vascular system of the human body. That is why physicians - nutritionists recommend drinking goat's milk for human suffering what - any kinds of malfunction of cardio - vascular system.

Despite the fact that along with the goat milk cow belongs to the group of casein, goat milk in the content of alpha-1s-casein is practically zero. It 1s-alpha-casein is the principal source of human allergic responses to cow's milk. Such an allergic reaction to cow's milk are often. But allergic to goat's milk - something out of the ordinary.

But the beta - casein in goat milk contains almost as much as in human breast milk. Because the proteins in goat milk contains a large number of albumins, proteins are easily cleaved and converted into small flakes. This is much easier to form the body metabolizes milk proteins, in contrast to suck intact cow's milk proteins. That is why the goat milk is almost never cause any disorder of the digestive system of a normal human body.

Due to the fact that goat's milk contains 57% less than in cow and 23% less than in human milk lactose, goat's milk is allowed nutritionists to eat even for those people who suffer from lactose intolerant individual.

Secondly, in cow's milk of 51% unsaturated fatty acids, whereas in the composition of goat milk for the unsaturated fatty acids there are about 69%. By the way, this kind of metabolic acids have the ability to obstruction of the accumulation of cholesterol in the human body.

Also, the composition of goat milk is very rich in various vitamins and trace elements, for example, such as:

Calcium in the human body is responsible for many processes. For example, normal blood clotting is only possible when a sufficient amount of calcium in the human body. In addition, the calcium it plays a leading role in the normal functioning of the central nervous system, bone - muscular system, elasticity and strength, as well as the normal permeability of the vessel walls. In addition, residents of large cities to get enough calcium in the body is particularly important - because calcium has the unique ability to output of radionuclides tissue and strontium.

  • Magnesium

Magnesium is essential for the correct course of many physiological processes. First of all magnesium is necessary for the normal course of different types of energy metabolism. The reason is very simple - the splitting of ATP released a lot of energy. But for this to happen is the splitting, it must have in the body of magnesium ions, without which this reaction is simply impossible.

In addition, magnesium is responsible for the regulation of normal cell growth, synthesis of new proteins necessary for the functioning of the body, the normal functioning of the central nervous system, the output from the human body of radionuclides and heavy metals. Magnesium is generally very effectively cleans the human body, preventing the deposition of cholesterol on the walls of blood vessels, kidney stones and urinary bladder.

Also involved in the process magnesium phosphorus metabolism, normal neuromuscular excitability or even stimulate normal intestinal peristalsis. Besides all this, magnesium is a must to complete the work - the reduction and relaxation - the heart muscle. And for normal blood pressure in the human body is also a great responsibility it is magnesium. This effect is achieved due to the fact that magnesium extends the walls of blood vessels and thereby reducing high blood pressure.

  • Manganese

Manganese is necessary for any living organism for full operation. And the human body is no exception. It manganese activates the vital processes such as the process of cellular respiration and mineral metabolism. Manganese is also a must needed for normal functioning of the following organs: liver, kidney, pancreas and brain.
In addition, magnesium is involved in the development of bone and muscular systems, which is why it is so necessary to children during the period of active growth. Also manganese is involved in a large number of different immune reactions, and lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.

Also goat milk contains a very large number of high-grade animal protein, fat, minerals and trace elements that are extremely beneficial to the metabolism.
