The only difference between A2 milk and traditional milk is that the A2 variety does not contain the A1 beta-casein protein, which may be difficult for some people to digest. For those with a milk protein allergy or with a lactose intolerance, A2 milk will not be a good option.

Beta-casein, which makes up 30% of milk protein, exists in two forms: A1 and A2. A2 milk only contains the A2 variant of beta-casein protein. Cows with the A2A2 gene produce only A2 milk. Jersey, Guernsey, Normande and Brown Swiss breeds have a higher percentage of A2 genes than Holstein.

Like their names imply, A1 milk contains more of the A1 beta-casein protein; A2 milk contains more of the A2 beta-casein protein. For some people, A2 milk is a beneficial milk alternative, as it may not cause the same digestive problems and discomfort as A1 milk (more on why later).

Here are some additional health benefits of A2 milk: It could help keep your blood pressure healthy. High blood pressure is often caused by elevated triglyceride and cholesterol levels. By consuming more omega-3 fatty acids like the ones in A2 milk, you can potentially lower your cholesterol levels.

A2 milk comes mainly from Charolais, Guernsey, Jersey, and Limousin cow breeds. These cows originate from the Channel Islands and Southern France. Their milk contains higher amounts of the A2 beta-casein protein. This A2 protein has been part of cow milk for thousands of years.

Check the Label for A2: Once you have confirmed that the milk is organic, check the label for the A2 certification. The A2 certification means that the milk comes from cows that only produce the A2 beta-casein protein. If the milk is labeled as A2, it is likely to be authentic.

Yes, in fact the only way to have cows that produce A2 milk is to breed for it. True A2 milk can only be produced from cattle possessing two copies of the A2 gene in their DNA. Each animal receives one copy of the gene from its sire and one copy from its dam.

The most significant difference between organic milk and organic A2/A2 milk is the presence of A1 beta casein in organic milk. A2 beta-casein is the main protein found in human milk. Organic A2/A2 milk tastes just like the milk you're already familiar with but is more naturally absorbed and easily digested.

India has a CAGR of 8.7% in the A2 milk industry. Demand for A2 milk in India has increased due to surged production capacity, as all indigenous buffaloes and even cow breeds produce 100% A2 milk. Besides this, the sales of A2 milk are rising in the country as consumers seek higher quality and pure milk.

What is A2 Infant Formula? Infant formulas that have A2 in their name are made from cow milk that only contains the A2 beta-caseins. They do not contain any of the A1 beta casein.
