One such promising nutra-ingredient is the freeze-dried mare’s milk. Due to its physiological, balanced nutrient composition, easy digestibility, the mare’s milk can be used with great benefit in dietary regimens when a diet is required, which as a result helps to cleanse the body, normalize metabolism, improve blood circulation and to some extent, slow the aging process. Purpose: The purpose of the work is to study the clinical effectiveness of freeze-dried mare’s milk in inflammatory bowel diseases and chronic constipation because of the dolichosigma. Method: The company-producer was granted freeze-dried mare milk-Saumal. A pilot study was conducted on two groups of children 9-12 years old with inflammatory bowel diseases and chronic constipation because of the dolichosigma.
