Abstract: African nations are not self-sufficient in milk and related solutions. So, some fruit, which get nutritious and nutritional value, can be valorized. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of Blighia sapida arils "milk" consumption on growth of rats and on the induction of diarrheoa compared to that of soya been "milk". For that, arils "milk" were produced using 0.5 kilogram of arils/ liter of distilled water and soya bean "milk" was brought. The two "milks" were freeze-dried and the powders were used to prepare concentrations (0, 200, 400 and 800 mg / kg of body weight) to be administered every three days to seven groups of rats during 15 days. Every three days, body weight was taken, faeces were collected and their moisture content was determined. Analysis showed that both powders are nutritiously rich. Soya bean "milk" powder protein and lipids content are higher than that of arils "milk" powder but it carbohydrates, calcium and phosphorus content are lower. Both "milks" are in favor of gain weight and they do not induce diarrhoea. So, we can envisage much production of it for human consumption.
