In olden days, calling someone a donkey was taken as quite insulting, but it seems that things have changed. Despite that the whole world is being driven backward, and many human values are shrinking, donkeys have succeeded in raising their assets... They prove to be quite important, and well needed.

It is high in calcium and helps reduce cholesterol and protect the heart because it contains omega-3 fatty acids. The researchers also concluded that donkeys' milk is very similar to woman's milk, and can be used in young children who are allergic to cow's dairy products. The researchers, who presented their findings at the European Congress on Obesity in Turkey, said its "consumption should be encouraged."
