Scientists in the United Arab Emirates have highlighted the anti-diabetic and anti-cancer properties of whey protein in camel milk. In a study published in Department of Biology, College of Science, the researchers said whey protein hydrolysates found in camel milk naturally inhibited carbohydrate-hydrolysing enzymes, offering a possible alternative method for treating Type 2 diabetes. They said camels milk has been shown to help reduce the dosage of insulin needed to induce glycemic control and increases glycosylated haemoglobin, anti-insulin antibodies and urinary albumin excretion. The team also found camel whey protein hydrolysates boosted anti-cancer activity in cells from an infected human liver.
