The benefits of donkey milk?

Maria Esther de Capovilla, the world’s oldest woman, died recently aged 116.

Her relatives have claimed the key to her longevity is donkey milk. In her youth, Maria would drink milk from the donkeys at her aunt’s farm in Ecuador.

They also said she ate regular small meals, only ever drank in moderation, and never smoked. (HFG suggests that the latter probably had more to do with her longevity than the donkey milk!)
