“…The basal diet used in this study was modified to remove dairy protein from the formulation and replace this with beef protein, in order to prevent any confounding effects. The protein used in rodent diets was from several sources including egg albumin, goat milk, CM, and beef protein [22][23][24]. With respect to milk composition, the data presented (Table 2) are consistent with the expected nutritional composition for both SM and CM as reported in the literature [25].…”

The Effect of Sheep and Cow Milk Supplementation of a Low Calcium Diet on the Distribution of Macro and Trace Minerals in the Organs of Weanling Rats

et al. 2020

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of either sheep or cow milk supplementation to a low calcium and phosphorus diet on growth and organ mineral distribution in weanling rats. Rats were fed diets consisting of either a control chow, a 50% reduced calcium and phosphorous chow (low Ca/P), low Ca/P and sheep milk, or low Ca/P and cow milk diet for 28 days. Food intake of the rats, the growth rate of the rats, and the concentrations of minerals in the soft organs and serum were determined. Rats fed the low Ca/P diet alone had lower weight gain than rats consuming either of the milk-supplemented diets (p < 0.05). Both sheep milk and cow milk supplementation overcame the effects of consuming a diet restricted in calcium and phosphorus but the sheep milk was effective at a significantly lower level of milk intake (p < 0.05). Significant differences (p < 0.05) in essential and trace mineral concentrations due to milk type were observed in the kidney, spleen, and liver. For non-essential minerals, significant differences (p < 0.05), related to diet, were observed in all organs for arsenic, cesium, rubidium, and strontium concentrations.

“…Importantly, goat milk formula performs similarly to cow milk formula, supporting infant growth and development in animal and human studies. Animal studies have shown goat milk to enhance the utilisation and retention of protein [ 53 , 54 ], mineral absorption and tissue storage (including calcium [ 55 , 56 ] and iron [ 56 , 57 , 58 ]), and intestinal fat absorption [ 59 ] as compared to cow milk. Randomised clinical trials in infants show the growth curves of children exclusively fed goat milk formula are similar to both breastmilk fed infants [ 60 ] and those fed cow milk formula [ 60 , 61 , 62 ].…”

Digestive Responses to Fortified Cow or Goat Dairy Drinks: A Randomised Controlled Trial

Fortified milk drinks are predominantly manufactured from bovine (cow) sources. Alternative formulations include those prepared with hydrolysed bovine milk proteins or from alternate bovidae species, such as caprine (goat) milk. Currently, there is little data on protein digestive and metabolic responses following ingestion of fortified milk drinks. To examine the digestive and metabolic responses to commercially-available fortified milks, young adults (n = 15 males: 15 females), in a randomised sequence, ingested isonitrogenous quantities of whole cow-protein (WC), whole goat-protein (WG), or partially-hydrolysed whey cow-protein (HC), commercial fortified milks. Plasma amino acid (AA) and hormonal responses were measured at baseline and again at 5 h after ingestion. Paracetamol recovery, breath hydrogen, and subjective digestive responses were also measured. Postprandial plasma AA was similar between WC and WG, while AA appearance was suppressed with HC. Following HC, there was a negative incremental AUC in plasma branched-chain AAs. Further, HC had delayed gastric emptying, increased transit time, and led to exaggerated insulin and GLP-1 responses, in comparison to whole protein formulas. Overall, WC and WG had similar protein and digestive responses with no differences in digestive comfort. Contrastingly, HC led to delayed gastric emptying, attenuated AA appearance, and a heightened circulating insulin response.

McKinnon et al [17] assessed the effect of goat milk in a growing rat model using a "fortified" formula milk containing different levels of goat milk derived caseins. The consumption of casein from goat milk significantly improved the calcium absorption of the rats (measured as fractional calcium absorbed) when compared to rats fed casein free formula.…”

The effect of formulated goats' milk on calcium bioavailability in male growing rats

Abstract: The diets containing 80% and 57% of goat milk protein as casein delivered increased calcium absorption compared to the diet containing no casein, suggesting a minimum level of casein is needed to optimize calcium absorption from goat milk.
