How is A2A2 Better For The Body?

Hello Everyone,

Can't handle dairy...  even though you're not lactose intolerant? Or perhaps you've heard about A2/A2 cow's milk but aren't quite sure what it means.

Well, I'm here to help you understand why making the switch to A2/A2 dairy could be beneficial for you.

So, what exactly is A2/A2 milk? It all comes down to the type of protein found in the milk. Unlike conventional milk found in most American grocery stores, which contains a mix of A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins, A2/A2 milk exclusively contains the A2 beta-casein protein.

All mammals (including humans, cats, dogs, goats, and so on) naturally produce milk with 100% A2 beta-casein protein.

But, a few thousand years ago, something happened with cows that changed this. European cows were pushed into unnatural living conditions, eating unnatural diets. What do organisms tend to do under stress? They Mutate!
 

This genetic mutation made cows produce a new type of beta-casein protein – A1. Before this point, cows (just like humans and all other mammals) produced milk strictly with A2 beta-casein protein. Now, basically all milk found in American grocery stores is A1/A2.

This is one big reason why so many people have trouble with dairy nowadays. 
 Modern research shows that humans cannot fully digest the A1 beta-casein protein. It has an opiate effect on the body. In some cases, humans have developed chronic digestive problems from drinking A1/A2 milk, particularly those from countries like India, where cows were not affected by genetic mutation so long ago.

This has been my first hand experience. In the recent years I noticed that when I drank non A2A2 milk, my stomach felt off and I felt so bloated, after trying the A2A2 milk I could immediately tell the difference. 
 If you're ready to experience the benefits of A2/A2 milk for yourself, don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to answer any questions you may have.

P.S. You may notice that not all of our milk we sell is A2A2 milk. This is due to it taking up to 3 generations of special genetics until a cow can product 100% A2A2 milk. It's not quite as easy as flipping a switch and all the cows start producing A2A2 milk. ;)

Allergies & Raw Milk

Modern Lifestyles and Allergies Although allergies were rare prior to the 1800’s [1], they are a common affliction in our modern lifestyles. As people have moved further from their agricultural roots, allergies have become more prevalent. Several studies have found that exposure to diverse bacteria and potential allergens in the environment makes a big difference in preventing the development of allergies.
