Vitamin in goat’s milk

Goat milk supplies adequate amounts of vitamin A and niacin, and excesses of thiamin, riboflavin and panthothenate for human.

Vitamin A functions at two levels in the human body: the first is in the visual cycle in the retina of the eye; second is in all body tissue where it systemically maintains the growth and soundness of cells.

While for niacin, it functions in many metabolic pathways, especially anaerobic, Krebs cycle-oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acids synthesis and oxidation.

Goat milk has higher amounts of vitamin A than cow milk. Milk from goat also higher in niacin but does not have the same amount of vitamin B6, B12 and C as cow’s milk.

Goat milk has a reputation of being a highly digestible dairy product even more digestible than cowls milk and less allergenic as well.

Goats milk contains 47% more vitamin A, 25% more vitamin B6 and three percent more niacin compared with cow’s milk.
