As from a goat's milk, the meaning of a phraseological unit. The economic importance of goats

In the animal kingdom all social roles clearly defined and regulated. Females must continue the race, males must protect females, cubs, their flock, get food, protect their territory, take care of prolonging the family.

In domestic animals and birds, everything is somewhat simpler. There is not much to protect from anyone, food will be brought anyway, the place of residence is determined by the owner of the estate, and not the leader of the pack. In general, of all cases, one thing remains - the continuation of the family.

Please note, as a rule, there is one rooster in the chicken coop, all other birds are chickens. Pigs - boars are not particularly favored on the farm, however, like sheep - their meat is not tasty (but it gives the wool that is needed on the farm). Bulls are kept as inseminators, skins and meat.

Goats give milk, very useful. At the same time, it is easier to keep them than a cow. This is understandable, they take up little space, eat less. Even a lonely old woman can handle it.

And what is the use of a goat in the household?

In peasant farms, they did not really like to feed those who did not benefit, which is why the expression appeared: "To sense, as from a goat - no wool, no milk."

It means:

A person who does not bring any benefit to society or the family.

A useless, useless creature.

Milk of domestic goats is valuable food product, whose popularity is steadily growing every year. It has a rich creamy taste, suitable for drinking raw. In terms of world production and consumption, goat's milk is second only to cow's, and in some countries with a developed culture of goat breeding it ranks first. In 1900, it was officially recognized as a high-diet product and recommended for the nutrition of people with poor health and children by the Paris Academy of Medical Sciences.

Protein composition of goat milk and its quality characteristics fully meet the needs human body. The main protein of cow's milk α s1 - casein, causing largest number allergic reactions, in goat's milk is practically absent. The elasticity of the casein clot formed during the curdling of goat's milk is less than that of cow's, and the rate of its formation is higher - these indicators also indicate that it is digested more efficiently.

Properties of goat milk as a medicinal food product

Freshly milked goat's milk has a powerful bactericidal activity, due to which it does not sour much longer than cow's milk even at room temperature (when warm, it remains fresh for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator - more than 7). Goat milk should be strained and cooled immediately after milking. The benefits and harms of it for the human body are well studied:

1. Goat milk boosts immunity against infectious diseases due to the high content of linoleic and linolenic unsaturated fatty acids. This also leads to the normalization of cholesterol metabolism and produces an anti-atherosclerotic effect.
2. A small amount of orotic acid compared to cow's milk prevents the development of fatty liver syndrome.
3. Goat milk is excellent for intestinal disorders and high acidity of the digestive juice. Lysozyme helps relieve inflammation of the mucous membrane and helps restore its integrity. These features are important for the use of the product in the prevention and treatment of gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers.
4. In any case of calcium deficiency and violations of its absorption, goat's milk provides significant assistance. It reduces the risk of developing rickets in infants and osteoporosis in the elderly, and facilitates the recovery process after injuries, fractures and sprains.
5. Large amounts of vitamin B12 normalize metabolism and hematopoiesis, an abundance of potassium is useful for the functioning of the heart and blood vessels.

Goat milk also helps in the treatment of the thyroid gland, liver, gallbladder, respiratory tract, and produces a pronounced antitumor effect. This product is indispensable for the removal of heavy metals, getting rid of the effects of radiation exposure, chemotherapy. Eczema, asthma, tuberculosis, colitis, hay fever, migraines, constipation, arthritis are far from full list diseases in the treatment of which the benefits of goat's milk are undeniable.

Cheese and cottage cheese from goat's milk are especially important for the treatment of dysbacteriosis. They prevent flatulence, regulate the function of the digestive organs, normalize the composition and activity of the intestinal microflora. The most valuable cottage cheese, and the method of its preparation has great importance to preserve medicinal properties.

Recipe for making homemade goat milk cheese

Put the dishes with fresh goat's milk in a warm place for natural fermentation. Since it sours slowly, it is necessary to remove the settled top layer of cream or sour cream in a timely manner, otherwise they may turn rancid. The curdled milk formed as a result of the work of lactic acid bacteria, which is a thick homogeneous mass, should be placed in the freezer and wait until it completely freezes. After that, it remains only to get it and throw it into a colander with gauze or a fine sieve to defrost at room temperature and drain the whey.

The cottage cheese obtained in this way has a delicate pleasant taste and an airy texture. It contains the maximum amount of vitamins and mineral salts. The absence of a heat treatment stage during the cooking process allows you to keep lactic acid microorganisms alive.

homemade cheese recipe

Compound:
Goat milk - 5 l
Acidin-Pepsin - 10 tablets
Salt

Application:
Dissolve the tablets in warm water and leave for 20 minutes. Warm the milk slightly, pour the diluted enzyme into it, mix well, cover and place in a warm place. It will take about 40 minutes to form a clot, after which it must be heated, stirring constantly. As soon as cheese flakes appear, the mass should be turned over into a gauze bag placed on a colander. After draining the whey, the cheese should be salted and slightly kneaded, then put under oppression for 3-4 hours.

Goat milk during pregnancy and lactation

During childbearing and lactation, a woman's body requires much more nutrients, minerals and vitamins than usual. The active growth of the fetus implies the timely intake of the necessary nutrients; if they are deficient, the mother's body can be seriously affected. Goat's milk can significantly reduce the risk of calcium deficiency and a number of other essential elements and reduce the damage to the health of the mother, one way or another caused by pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Regular consumption of whole goat milk prevents the development of seizures, hair loss and decreased performance caused by a lack of mineral salts. Warm milk with honey soothes nervous system relieves insomnia and anxiety. Milkshakes with fresh quail eggs help in the prevention of constipation, which often overshadows the life of a future mother in the second half of pregnancy.

The role of goat milk in infant nutrition

Good nutrition at an early age is one of the main conditions correct formation all organs and systems, their adequate functioning and harmonious development of the child. Goat milk is often used as the basis of adapted dairy products and formulas for children, as its composition is close to human breast milk.

Goat's milk is safer than cow's and soy's milk for this purpose for a number of reasons:

1. Women's milk and goat's milk are largely similar in terms of the composition of proteins and amino acids, among which lysine, tyrosine and cystine predominate, which are necessary for the synthesis of hormones and other compounds that regulate metabolism.
2. Goat's milk contains less iron than cow's milk, but its absorption rate is higher (30% versus 10% for cow's milk).
3. Goat milk contains a large amount of glycerol esters, which are important for the digestion of newborns.
4. The saturation of goat milk with β-casein and the absence of α s1 -casein reduce the risk of developing allergies, atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma.
5. The structure of lipids and proteins allows goat milk to curdle in the stomach into small and soft flakes, forming a small, loose clot that can be easily digested. Goat's milk is fully digested and 5 times faster than cow's.

Weight loss with goat milk

The benefits of goat milk for weight loss is a consequence of its complex therapeutic action. With a lack of calcium, the metabolism slows down, the processing of lipids and the destruction of the fatty layer stops. Saturation of the body with calcium salts normalizes metabolism and promotes weight regulation.

Calorie content of goat milk is 68 kcal, it is easily digestible, provides good nutrition and dulls the feeling of hunger. A non-strict diet can be supplemented with low-calorie healthy foods (fresh vegetables, fruits, leaf lettuce). Acidic foods should be avoided, and milk is best consumed skimmed.

There are mono-diets using goat's milk as the basis, but you should not choose them because of the harm done to health. Weight loss can be achieved by following a few useful tips and forming a safe therapeutic diet according to your needs:

1. With good tolerance, it is advisable to drink 3 glasses of whole milk per day to normalize metabolic processes.
2. It is recommended to drink a glass of water half an hour before a meal.
3. Milk must be taken separately from other products.
4. Unloading days on milk can be carried out with a frequency of 1 time per week. A liter of drink is consumed in portions of half a glass, slightly warming it up. On such a day, coffee and tea without sugar and sweeteners are also allowed.

Goat milk in cosmetology

Goat milk and its components are very popular today for the production of cosmetics. His the most important properties found application in creams and masks for face and body skin, shampoos and hair balms:

• goat milk triggers the regeneration of collagen fibers and stimulates metabolic processes, which restores skin elasticity and silkiness;
• antioxidants help maintain youthful skin;
• bactericidal components inhibit the development of harmful microorganisms, help in the healing of microtraumas and eliminate irritation;
• moisturizing and nourishing ingredients penetrate into the deepest layers of the skin due to the low melting point of goat milk fats.

With the regular use of cosmetics based on industrial or home-made goat milk, the skin color is evened out and freshened, pigment spots brighten and become invisible. Restoring the water-salt balance eliminates swelling and "bags" under the eyes, dryness and peeling.

The use of goat milk for hair care makes them more manageable and softer, helps to get rid of dandruff, prevents excision of the tips and restores the hair shaft. To feel the beneficial effect of this healing component, it is enough to soak the curls and scalp with milk diluted in a 1: 1 ratio with warm water after washing, and leave it for 2-3 minutes before rinsing.

How to choose goat milk

Unlike cow's milk, which is easy to find in any store, goat's milk is not as widespread. This healing product can be found through advertisements from goat owners, on private backyards and farms. When buying milk "from hand", it is important to take precautions. Full confidence is needed that the animal that gives milk is healthy, not infected with brucellosis and tick-borne encephalitis, is kept clean and receives good nutrition.

It will not be superfluous to ask the seller to provide a certificate from the veterinarian, but you should not insist on examining the goat, its dwelling and presence at the milking. It will be enough to pay a little attention to the general condition of the house and appearance the owner in order to give an impression of his neatness, cleanliness and accuracy.

Boiling or pasteurizing purchased milk will help to avoid trouble. However, if there is no doubt about the safety of the product, it is most useful to use it freshly milked and unprocessed. Thermal exposure leads to the destruction of proteins and some amino acids, damage to the structure of lipid globules, and the breakdown of vitamins.

Contrary to popular belief, goat milk does not have a specific unpleasant odor or taste. This is very rare, and animals that give such milk do not take root on the farm. The appearance of smell can be influenced by the joint keeping of milking animals with a sexually mature male (especially during the rut period), fungal diseases of the hooves, congenital or acquired disorders in the work of the stomach, liver or kidneys, the presence of helminthic invasion, untimely cleaning of the premises, dietary features.

Goat Milk Precautions

Goat milk harms the human body if its health and functions of the digestive tract have features or disorders. Occasionally there is an individual intolerance to this product. In this case, its use is unacceptable, as it causes the development of an allergic reaction.

The amount of lactase needed to break down milk sugar often decreases with age. This leads to the fact that milk causes a rejection reaction (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), discomfort and does not bring benefits. Goat milk is more easily tolerated due to the reduced lactose content, but an increased degree of enzyme deficiency is a clear contraindication to its use. Dairy products (especially cheese and cottage cheese) contain little lactose, but they are also unsuitable for food with complete lactase deficiency.

Diseases of the pancreas significantly impoverish the human diet, and milk often falls into the list of restrictions. At the same time, many experts recommend taking fresh goat's milk in a daily dose of up to 1 liter, since it helps to restore the organ, suppresses the inflammatory process and works as an analgesic.

Warning: To make an informed decision about the possibility of drinking goat's milk with pancreatic dysfunction, a consultation with a doctor is necessary.

Obesity caused by malfunctions in the endocrine system also requires you to abandon the use of goat's milk as part of a therapeutic diet. Excellent absorption of the lipid component and the high fat content of the natural product in this case can only bring harm.

Even if well tolerated, goat milk should not be overused to get the most benefit from goat milk and avoid harm. An excess of it in the diet can cause disturbances in the work of the intestines, diarrhea, the development of obesity and hypervitaminosis. It is better to drink milk 2-3 hours before or after the main meal, otherwise it will weaken the action of gastric juice.

Goat breeding, as a branch of livestock breeding goats, is successfully developing all over the world. Goats are not picky about food and eat more plants (more than 600 types of grass) than other herbivores. The products of goat breeding are milk with its huge amount of vitamins, meat, skins and wool.

Milk
Goat milk is unique in its composition. It contains a large amount of amino acids that increase the body's resistance to infectious diseases and normalize cholesterol metabolism. In addition, goat's milk contains less orotic acid, which helps prevent fatty liver syndrome. Protein, glucose and lactose of goat's milk are easier to digest, since the fat globules in it are smaller and evenly distributed throughout the mass.

The milk of thoroughbred goats is not only not inferior to cow's milk, but also surpasses it. Goat's milk contains 4.5% protein and 4.4% fat, while cow's milk has an average of 3.3% and 3.9%, respectively. Goat's milk is richer than cow's milk in calcium, phosphorus, cobalt and a number of vitamins (B 1 , B 2 , C), which have strong anti-infectious, anti-anemic and anti-hemorrhagic properties.

Due to the high content of calcium salts, goat's milk is recommended for children with metabolic disorders. It should be borne in mind that to meet the daily requirement of young children in animal fats, goat's milk requires 30-40% less than cow's. Goat's milk is close to women's milk in many properties, so it is successfully used for feeding infants with a shortage of mother's milk.

Goat milk is a valuable product not only for feeding children, but also for people with gastric diseases. People for whom cow's milk is an allergen can drink goat's milk completely painlessly. It contains fewer substances that cause cream peeling, and the milk clot is much more tender, which contributes to better digestibility and easy digestion in the human gastrointestinal tract.

Due to its aroma, the unique composition of the clot obtained during curdling, goat's milk is included in the composition of the best cheeses. Goat milk is used to make butter, curd cheese, and feta cheese. From goat's milk in its pure form and mixed with sheep's and cow's, high-quality cheeses are produced - brynza, suluguni, roquefort, etc. Goat's milk is also used in the confectionery industry.

Goats rarely suffer from tuberculosis, so their milk is safer than cow's milk to consume fresh, when all biologically valuable substances are preserved in it. However, brucellosis can be transmitted through goat milk, so milking queens should be tested for this disease.

Meat
In terms of taste, goat meat (goat meat), obtained from animals of downy breeds, is not inferior to lamb. Goat meat is lighter in color than lamb, with pure white fat. According to the content of essential fatty acids, it is similar to lamb and beef and has high nutritional value. According to the content of vitamin A (retinol), B 1 (thiamine), and B 2 (riboflavin), goat meat significantly exceeds the meat of farm animals of other species. The cholesterol content in goat meat is several times lower than in beef and pork, and perhaps this explains the relatively low prevalence of atherosclerosis among peoples who eat this healing meat.

High quality meat is obtained from fattened castrati, culled fat queens and young animals. To get good-tasting meat, you need to castrate goats under the age of one year. This avoids the unpleasant smell inherent in goat meat.

Goats get sick much less and, in comparison with cattle, their meat is not affected by worms, and in terms of quality it contains slightly more water and less fat. Well and skillfully prepared dishes from goat meat, especially young or dairy meat, cannot be compared with those from pork or beef.

Wool and down
The wool of specialized wool goat breeds is homogeneous, characterized by great strength, resilience, elasticity and a strong luster shine. It is used to produce fleecy and costume fabrics, carpets, knitwear, and other products.

The wool of Angora goats is especially valued, the main advantage of which is uniformity. Angora wool is almost entirely composed of transition fibers. The finest wool is obtained from young goats at the age of one year.

Goat down is a special kind of wool raw material, which has no equal in terms of physical and technical properties and high technological qualities. Goat down has an exceptional fineness (15-20 microns), softness, relative strength and low thermal conductivity. It serves as a raw material for knitting openwork shawls and shawls (for example, the famous Orenburg downy shawl).

skins
Goat skins (“goat skins”) are used for dressing the best quality types of leather: chevro, chevro lacquer, morocco, chrome goat, suede, husky, which are used to make model shoes and haberdashery. Skins containing fluff are used for dressing various furs that imitate valuable fur animals.

Leather made from goatskin is superior in quality to other types of leather that are made from other breeds of domestic animals. In particular, goat skins are significantly superior to other skins in terms of strength, elasticity ("ductility"), beauty and hygienic properties. The most valuable types of leather are made from goatskin - "chevro", the best grade used for the production of model shoes, and "like", used, for example, for the production of kid gloves.

The types of leather made from goatskin differ depending on the breed of goats and their age. So, “like” is made from the skin of small kids, “chevro” skins are made from animals no older than 5 months. Finally, leather obtained from animals older than 5 months is called "chrome goat".

In Russia, goat made from downy goats, for example, from the Orenburg goat, is more valued. Goats of the Soviet wool breed are less valued due to their loose structure. Among the fur breeds in Russia, the Don, Gorno-Altai and Angora goats stand out.

Experts do not recommend the use of "spring goats", obtained in Russia after slaughtering goats in February-May. The quality of the "autumn goat" obtained from August to January is much higher, since in spring the animals molt and have low fatness.

Litter
Goat manure is a valuable organic fertilizer and can be used to feed plants on a personal plot. In its action, it is superior to cow and horse dung. Especially suitable for greenhouses and greenhouses. It is required 5 times less than cow and 4 times less than horse. From a goat kept on a litter, from 350 to 500 kilograms of litter are obtained during the stall period. Wikimedia Commons
