Highlights
  • Krishnappa from Kolar spends most of his days in Bengaluru selling donkey's milk
  • In villages, donkey's milk substitutes mother's milk - it was a practice until recently to give newborn babies a spoon of donkey's milk
  • However, it cannot be harvested on a commercial scale as the yield is low
BENGALURU: When it comes to their children, some Bengalureans hold nothing back. So then why would Rs 50-a-spoonful of donkey's milk be a problem? Krishnappa is from Kolar, but he spends most of his days in Bengaluru selling donkey's milk to eager parents.

In fact, Lakshmi, the donkey, is quite the money-spinner. His rate for the product doesn't deter parents, especially those with newborns, many of whom hold the traditional belief that donkey's milk builds immunity in children against a range of diseases. And that's exactly how he markets the milk.

He travels around with Lakshmi and her calf, announcing loudly in Kannada: "Donkey's milk! Good for [curing] asthma, cold, cough. Good for children!" Sudeep Shetty, a resident of Income Tax Layout in Vishwaneedam, met Lakshmi and her owner at his doorstep on Monday morning. He wasted no time in buying the milk for his son. "My brother used to tell me about the benefits of donkey's milk. It is documented in many books that it builds immunity against diseases in children. There is no regular supply of donkey's milk so when you get the opportunity to buy it at your doorstep, why not," asks Shetty.
The traditional practice of giving donkey's milk to babies finds support from unexpected quarters. Jayaprakash HM, special officer of dairy sciences, University of Agricultural Sciences, says: "An ***' milk comes closest to the human milk. It has anti-microbial components such as lysozyme. It is rich in such components and is very good for building immunity."

According to Jayaprakash, in villages, donkey's milk substitutes mother's milk. "Until recently, it was a practice to give newborn babies a spoon of donkey's milk. If the mother was unwell, donkey's milk would be the substitute."
However, donkey's milk cannot be harvested on a commercial scale as the yield is low, he adds.

However, nutritionist Sheela Krishnaswamy says that nutritional science has no evidence of its benefit.

What is all this fuss about donkey meat in Pakistan? Ancient Greeks and Egyptians used this meat for its medicinal benefits. Modern Europe has been using this meat for generations in salami – this is a semi-dried mixture of different meats preserved in a shape like a large sausage.

Donkey farming is becoming increasingly popular in Europe. Donkey’s milk has been used for health and beauty aids since the times of Hippocrates, who prescribed it for numerous ailments such as liver troubles, infectious deceases, fevers, oedema, nose bleeds and various other problems and illnesses. Donkey milk is the most expensive milk in the world and is also used in beauty aids. Cheese made from it sells for well over $700 per kg. Donkey farming is an untapped treasure, especially for the export.

At least post something credible. This is just a guy opening a thread at Jang News site.

In desperation to find negative news about India,Pakistani end up making fun of themselves. In the economy or development comparison threads they are no where to be seen, but they open such stupid thread to cheer in otherwise dismal days in their country's life

In other words, the claims regarding donkey milk are conflicting and more research needs to be done to justify the claims.
