Researchers at UAE University accomplish breakthrough on beneficial effects of camel milk on diabetes
AL AIN, 9th May, 2021 (WAM) -- As part of its commitment to support innovation and scientific research, the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) funded a collaborative research project investigating the antidiabetic properties of camel milk. Camel milk is a popular commodity in the UAE and in many parts of the world. It is known for its therapeutic properties against diseases such as diabetes and cancer. It is also widely noted that camel milk reduces the dose of insulin needed to induce glycemic control and improves fasting blood glucose. Camel milk’s antidiabetic properties have been investigated by many researchers worldwide. However, the molecular basis of these properties and the exact active agent are still elusive.
