　　"Biochemically, donkey's milk is actually closer to human milk than cow's milk with a similar protein, mineral and fatty acid composition," nutritionist Charlotte Stirling-Reed tells The Huffington Post UK.

　　“从生物化学角度讲，驴奶在蛋白质含量、矿物质（灰分）和脂肪酸含量上都更接近母乳，” 营养学家Charlotte Stirling-Reed在英国赫芬顿邮报上如是说。

　　"It's also reported to have many functional¹ properties, but the truth is we don't have enough research to say much more than that at this point."

　　The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation² says donkey milk has "particular nutritional³ benefits" and could benefit those who are allergic⁴ to cow's milk.

　　Adults in good health can enjoy donkey'smilk as a hypo-allergenic substitute for cow'smilk."

　　健康的成年人可以饮用驴奶代替牛奶，因为驴奶具有低致敏性。

　　Dr Massimo Caliendo, nutritional biologist, writes on the Eurolactis site: "One of the most important uses of donkey'smilk is in paediatrics, specifically for cases of allergies⁷ and intolerance.

　　生物营养学家Massimo Caliendo博士在Eurolactis网站发表的文章上说：“驴奶目前主要用在儿科上，用来给那些对牛奶过敏或乳糖不耐受的婴幼儿饮用。”

　　"It is well-known that the protein in cow'smilk can be an allergen for children. If mother'smilk is not available, donkey'smilk comes into its own as an extremely beneficial and important source of food, particularly for cases of multiple food allergies and poor absorption."

　　“大家都是知道牛奶中的蛋白质很容易引发婴儿过敏。如果没办法喝母乳，就可以饮用营养丰富的驴奶。这在对其他事物过敏或吸收困难的婴幼儿身上也适用。”

　　He added that donkey's milk is also a great supplement for sports people.

　　他补充说，驴奶对运动的人也是很好的补剂。

"In difficult situations such as growth problems, poor diet, convalescence⁸, periods of transition such as adolescence⁹ or the menopause or for older people, dietary supplementation based on donkey'smilk helps the body to cope during critical phases.
