Anyone try camel milk or colostrum?

No..

But i've heard good stuff about the colostrum.

I've actually read a lot about the benefits of Bovine Colostrum. I just don't use animal products so I have never tried it before.

I tried camel milk, didn't notice any change for better or worse and I wasn't fond of the taste.

I'm not sure how the camels milk is different, but there is a lady that lives near here who's newborn was rejecting everything, horrible screaming, spitting up, bloating, bloody stools, they tried all the expensive formulas, goat milk some other things and finally someone mentioned camels milk, and they baby takes it perfectly fine, has no problems at all. They had to have it shipped in from somewhere overseas, I don't know how you go about doing that though. its something about how the proteins react with your stomach, I don't know the whole story behind it, I just saw the camel milk thread and thought that I would share.
Another lady used donkey milk, she just bought some donkeys. But I don't think you can just buy camels,lol.

Raw milk of goats or cow have been well documented to help IBDers. Problem is, there is risk ingesting non-pasteurized milk. Then again, there is risk with everything. However, raw milk allows an IBDer to get an "infusion" of bacteria that the gut may desperately need. To me, this is another approach to probiotics.  Camel???? Haven't heard that one. However, I did read or hear somewhere (it may be in the Bible) that if you are sick with digestive problems....to follow your camel (assuming you own one) and ingest its feces.   

To me, these examples fall under the many probiotic options that exist today.  IMO:  Rebalancing the gut flora is key in treatment of UC.

Oh, and I wanted to mention - I visited an Ayurvedic doctor 2 weeks ago and she suggested that once I'm a bit more healed, I should give goat milk enemas a try. Apparently "soothing" for the colon or something like that. I didn't even think to ask about pasteurization, but I will next time. Haven't tried it yet in any case...

cow....ruminant animals (4 chamber stomachs)

Seasons,

Yes I had tried camel milk, and it's a good thing.
Email me and I'll explain.

trojen,

Thanks.

After all the BS, I figured I would drop out altogether because I felt I was being maliciously maligned, but frankly I have received so many emails from people urging me to keep contributing as they find my help valuable and important.

My only agenda has ever been to help others.

I'm happy you are here too! I know your motivation has only been to help :)

What did you like about the camel milk? Did you see difference in sxs?

I put together a post on the latest research & patient reports (hat tip to InSoFla!) on camel's milk for autoimmune disease, including autism, crohns, lyme, me/cfs:
