dc.description.abstractParasitic helminth infection is a global affliction affecting both of people and livestock causing significant economic loss. Control however has not been successful due to political neglect and the development of resistance to conventional chemotherapy. Novel alternative compounds are urgently needed which resulted in screening of largely plant based sources for anthelmintic property. Animals are also important sources for medicine. Milk which has been mentioned in holy texts is a wholesome food essential for growth and health. It has also been shown to promote health due to its balanced nutritive profile and presence of bioactive components. A systematic review was performed to investigate the anthelmintic effect of milk using five scientific databases; EBSCOhost, PUBMED, EMBASE, OVID, and SCOPUS. The search included any studies related to anthelmintic effects of milk specifically animal-based milk but not those related to milk production or plant-based milk. The search yielded 353 manuscripts but only 8 manuscripts were taken into consideration after reviewing their title, abstract and full paper using pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Five articles demonstrated the anthelmintic effects of bovine milk in vitro and in vivo. One article reported antiparasitic effect in breast fed babies. One article demonstrated the superior anthelmintic effects of camel milk in vitro while cow, ewe and goat milk exhibited weak ovicidal only effects. In conclusion our systematic review yielded limited anecdotal evidence of anthelmintic property of milk. Bovine, human and camel milk showed good potential for future use in helminth control. However, the exact mechanism by which milk exhibited anthelmintic effect remains unclear. � 2017 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.en_US
