Khushnoza Mamadierova, a student of the Faculty of Biology of Samarkand State University, is conducting a scientific study on the topic “Methods for the biochemical determination of proteins in goats’ milk”. Her research on the composition of goats’ milk and the production of new types of medicines from it continues to be the focus of the scientific community. Scientific supervisor Associate Professor SamSU Markhamat Ismoilova.

    “Only 2.6% of the world’s milk comes from goats ,” Khushnoza Mamadyorova told. "In this regard, cows’ milk is consumed most" she told. However, goats’ milk is healthier than milk of cows. Having studied the biochemical properties of the product, I tried to scientifically analyze that goats’ milk contains a large amount of useful and rare minerals, which is incredibly beneficial for human health. In countries such as Japan, Switzerland, Greece, goats’ milk is consumed in large quantities. Goats’ milk accounts for 60-70% of the total dairy products in these countries. In case of people in Uzbekistan, cows’ milk is consumed more than other types of milk. But the healing properties of goats’ milk are higher than that of cows’ milk.

    The beneficial properties of goats’ milk have been known to man since ancient times. Ibn Sina also recommended it to newborns, pregnant and lactating women. Scientists believe that goats’ milk softens the intestines, heals ulcers in the throat, and is useful for coughs, migraines, and stomach diseases.

    World scientists believe that the chemical composition of goats’ milk is close to breast milk. The composition is rich in such valuable substances as calcium, magnesium, ferrum, manganese, potassium. A good effect is the use of goats’ milk in the treatment of rickets, liver diseases, pulmonary tuberculosis, allergies. Because of its high alkalinity, goats’ milk is a good remedy for patients whose stomach is producing excess acid. This product contains the enzyme lysozyme, which destroys bacteria, relieves inflammation of the intestinal and stomach mucosa, and also effectively heals minor wounds.

    It is useful to drink goat's milk for eczema, itching, asthma and various allergic diseases. Patients with diabetes are often prescribed to drink goats’ milk. The reason is that it does not contain glucose, has a low calorie content. Goat milk is used in folk medicine to relieve joint discomfort, to remove mineralizations from the gallbladder, to strengthen sleep, to prevent stress, depression and neurosis. Patients with diseases related to the nervous system are advised to drink more goats’ milk.

    Goats’ milk should only be consumed cooked. When cooked goats’ milk you can produce curdled milk, sour cream, kurut. “Chakka” produced from it is also useful in the prevention of hepatitis. Drinking this milk with sugar brightens the skin of the face. This milk contains a large amount of vitamin D and calcium, therefore, by regularly consuming it, you can significantly reduce the risk of bone fractures, prevent rickets and its serious consequences.

    Goats’ milk is also very beneficial for athletes. It promotes the restoration of muscle tissue damaged as a result of prolonged physical exertion. Goats’ milk is effective for severe cough caused by coughing when taken along with turnip juice and walnuts.

    It should be noted that goats’ milk is a unique gift of nature to man. It can be used for the prevention and treatment of total diseases of the human body. So, by adding goats’ milk to your daily diet, you can enrich your healthy lifestyle with one more product.
