TAIF
People are turning to drinking camel milk in many cities. Drive around any city and you find camels with shepherds and some drinking milk utensils waiting ready for camel milk thirsty customers.

“I take the camels out every morning to the desert so the camels eat from thorn trees, available in the Taif area. They eat from the desert, so the milk of the camels will be better. After that I come back to the farm and wait for the customers,” Bila, a Sudanese camel herder told The Saudi Gazette

“The milk is good for the bones, it makes them strong, also it is good for the liver, sexual libido and many other health benefits,” he said.

Turky Al-Otaibi, a businessman in Taif, swears by it, saying: “I drink camel milk everyday because I have two wives. It helps me a lot to please them. I have no need of medications for erectile dysfunction, camel milk does the job.”

Milking a she-camel, however, is tricky.

“Approach the animal from the right leg. Bend your left leg and place a pot on it or anything else you can use to drain the milk,” he advised.

“A she-camel has four nipples. Seize the nearest two and squeeze. Repeat twice daily,” he added.

Ayed Al-Harthi an employee at a hospital said, “I suffer from high-blood cholesterol because of bad eating habits like eating Kabsah every night. I tried many medications, but unfortunately they are only good for short periods of time.”

“Somebody advised me to try to drink camel milk every night. Then I did a blood test the result was nice, my cholesterol dropped to the normal level. I told the physician about that, he said he did do not have scientific studies on that,” he added.

Khaled, a student at a Jeddah teacher’s college said, “When I come to Taif, I go to the camel farms to drink milk without boiling it at all. I just say ‘In name of Allah’ and I drink.”

“Nothing has happened to me at all so far. I have no fears of getting brucellosis,” he said
Ibrahim Al-Halawani’s father had liver cirrhosis.
<b>“My father had liver cirrhosis and there is no treatment for this kind of disease with the modern medicine, so somebody advised me to give my father both milk and urine of the camel, they said it was a medicine used by the Prophet (pbuh). I started giving him the mix but my father’s condition was too far gone and, as a result he died,”</b> Halwani said.

<b>Emad Al-Sayed, Oncology and Radiotherapy consultant, said he could not confirm or deny that camel’s milk or urine had any medicinal prupose. </b>

“I do not have any evidence or studies that prove that camel milk treats cancer or liver cirrhosis as known to common people,” he said.

“The she camel’s milk soothes the liver and the effects of a spoiled constitution,” said Al-Razi, an Islamic scientist.

In the book, the centuries-dead Islamic scientist in his book Al-Qanoon, writes “Camel’s milk is an effective cure, and the best remedy for dropsy and other ailments.”

Professor Ahmad Ahmadani, laboratories dean at the Sudanese Al-Jazera University, experimented with camel’s milk and gave patients of liver cancer, liver cirrhosis and ascites calculated doses of camel milk and urine. After 15 days, all patients were cured from the disease, some of them continued to drink the mix. In another experiment, Ahmadani administered doses of camel’s milk to diabetes patients. The result was the blood sugar decreased remarkably after one year of drinking camel’s milk.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
