How good is Buffalo Milk?

“Buffalo Milk”. Until now, the buffalo industry has been renowned for producing meat and working animals, especially for the live trade to Asia. But, now, buffalo milk is making its mark in the dairy industry. Buffalo milk is high in energy and calcium, but low in cholesterol, and while the industry is widely recognised overseas, it's still in its early stages here in Australia.

The research found that pasteurised buffalo milk is not just a tasty option; it appears to be a healthy one too. Obviously, in fat and protein, buffalo milk is basically double the fat and protein of cow's milk. Buffalo milk also has lactose free as same as the goat’s milk which is good for digestion and stomach.
