Dear Reviewer 

It is my pleasure to thank you for your useful comments and all corrections pointed out in the text were accepted and done

Reviewer 2 Report

Very interesting topic. Good experimental design.  More references should be added to support results and discuss the findings. More references are needed on the mechanisms used by fermented milk (cow and camel) to lower cholesterol. 

Some of the diagrams are too big. More details should be included on the methods used for chemical analysis.

Line 341- the discussion of the effect of fermented milk on lowering creatinine. This is a very relevant finding, but there is not enough references to support the conclusions.  Discussion could be improved.
