Why you should switch to Farm Fresh A2 Milk?
Drinking milk has been a cultural practice for a long time. Even today in most households, it is a ritual to start the day with a glass of milk. However, there has been a shift in our milk consumption patterns and the type of milk with many alternative sources of milk available today that do not involve animals like soy, coconut, almond, flax, rice, and hemp.
Even with so many options available, animal milk is considered a complete food because it contains proteins, high levels of calcium, vitamin B12, riboflavin, and phosphorous.
This article provides an overview of what is A2 milk, how it is different from regular milk, its possible health benefits, and why you should make a switch to farm-fresh A2 milk.
What is A2 Milk?
Milk is a good source of protein, containing 8 grams (g) per 8-ounce (oz) glass. However, in India, most consumption is A1 milk, which isn’t too healthy.
There are two major proteins in milk – casein and whey. Casein accounts for around 80% of the protein in milk. There are also various types of casein, one of which is called beta-casein. A1 and A2 are the two variants of beta-casein. Today, the milk available from the local grocery store contains mostly A1 proteins.
When A1 protein is digested, it produces a peptide called beta-casomorphin-7 (BCM-7). Doctors link BCM-7 to stomach discomfort and symptoms which are similar to those experienced by people with lactose intolerance.
Recently, a new type of milk has gained popularity in dairy aisles. This product, called A2 milk is easier to digest and absorb than other types of milk. The A2 beta-casein protein present in A2 Milk breaks down into amino acids for quick digestion, which results in improving our overall health.
But why farm fresh A2 milk After all?
To say the least, A2 is the purest form of milk and has the original protein that is present in cows or buffalos. A2 milk is produced from the cows and buffaloes which are nurtured well with fresh fodder, and clean water, and are kept under vet’s surveillance. No growth hormones or antibiotics are given to increase the output of milk.
Every step is pure and natural, and thus, safe for consumption by everyone in the family.
However, there are still challenges that persist when we talk about the production of quality A2 milk.
