Have we found the secret to eternal youth?

Have we found the secret to eternal youth?

Let’s be honest, that is highly unlikely, but these donkeys are doing their bit in the quest to remain forever young.

donkeys are doing their bit in the quest to remain forever young.

We have heard of many different anti-ageing products over the years, which all promise to ensure you remain looking youthful for many years to come. 

Sadly, the majority of these products are scams, as getting older and looking older is, unfortunately, a reality for all of us.

However, there seems to be some promise in the anti-ageing sector, with an unlikely source getting people all excited.

 A family in Jordan believe they have cracked the ageing process with their soap made out of donkey milk.

 Yes, donkey milk.

Atan Donkey Milk Soaps is based in Madaba, Jordan and produces natural soaps from the milk of its 12 donkeys.

Naturally, in the early stages of the business, people laughed at the creators of the soap. This laughter would have come from the fact that we have seen this all before, with the promise of youthful skin only turning into disappointment.

 But it appears things may be different this time…

The milk of a donkey is packed with proteins and minerals, which are perfect for moisturising the skin.

Atan Donkey Milk Soaps has become so popular that 4,500 bars of soap are produced on a monthly basis to meet the demand of a growing customer base.

Could this be the solution to eternal youth? Unlikely, but it may be worth a try…
