Facts about A2 milk

Recently milk has been accused of being laden with antibiotics and stress hormones. One has also heard about milk and how it is affecting our health.

Our country which is predominately vegetarian, milk is a very important nutrient and a good source of protein and calcium and is necessary for one’s growth.

Milk is 87-88% water and 12-13% solid which includes lactose or sugar / fat/ protein/ minerals. 80% of milk protein is casein, 30-35% beta-casein which is further divided into A1 and A2.

Milk containing A1 beta-casein at the time of digestion releases BCM-7 in the small intestine which is not well absorbed by the body and one may feel bloated or uncomfortable. It also has an effect on one’s immune system, type 1 diabetes, heart disease etc.

Whereas, Milk consumed with A2 beta-casein also produces amino acid called proline which prevents the formation of BCM-7. Resulting in better digestion. Taste and also rich in omega 2 fatty acids, vitamin A which is good for eyesight and strong immune system. Regular consumption also increases HDL (good cholesterol).

Human milk too contains A2 beta-casein and therefore considered nutritious, healthy and best when it comes to new born’s growth and immunity.

Indian native breeds of indigenous cows and buffalo with a hump on their back and long horns are considered rich in A2 beta-casein milk protein. Whereas humpless breeds or crossbreed produce more A1 milk which produces amino acid called Histidine allowing the formation of BCM – 7 and its ill-effects on human health.

For your information both A1 and A2 milk contain lactose and consumer should be aware that it will not address the issue related to lactose intolerance.

Also player should not just alone promote A2 milk, they should also promote lactose-free, high protein, high calcium milk, non-adulterated or antibiotic free or organic milk.
