Abstract:

Objective: To investigate whether fresh donkey milk alleviates swimming exercise fatigue in mice. Methods: ICR mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 12), which were administered with fresh donkey milk at low, middle and high dosages (5, 10 mL/ kg and 20 mL/ kg) once a day for consecutively 30 days and saline as (control), respectively. According to Technical Standards for Testing & Assessment of Health Food (2003 Edition), mouse exhaustive swimming time, serum urea level, blood lactate content and hepatic glycogen content were determined. Results: Compared with the control group, the swimming time, serum urea level, lactate content in blood and hepatic glycogen content in mice administered with fresh donkey milk at high dosage exhibited a significant enhancement (P < 0.05-0.01). Conclusion: Fresh donkey milk has an obvious anti-fatigue effect.
