Buffalo milk has more calories than cows milk.
It contains high proteins and fats.
Hence it takes more time to digest.
Where cows milk is easily digestible.
Though ayurveda doctors prefer cows milk, it doesn't mean you should not take Buffalo milk.
We have to keep in mind that its more heavier.
The milk which is suitable for ones health is according to individual health condition.
Just as not everyone gets cold with being wet under rainfall. We all can use buffalo milk for our own reasons.
Let me give you another example,as though cow milk and buffalo milk are easily available in almost all area.
But goats milk is the most preferable of all other milk.
