Abstract :
Several authors base their arguments to promote the health benefits of camel milk on components such
as vitamins. However, except for vitamin C, the number of references is limited and, overall, reported
concentrations in the literature are highly variable because of the use of different analytical methods,
materials and study contexts. The present review gives up-to date information regarding the values of
fat- and water-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B11, B12 and C) reported in
milk of large camelids from different parts of the world
