Which milk is better? A1 or A2?

Milk from cows has long been regarded as a nutritious source of high quality proteins, carbohydrates and micronutrients.

🤔But is it true?

Beta-casein is the second most abundant milk protein.

However, genetic variations in beta-casein have resulted in A1 and A2 forms, with a key difference at position 67 in their amino acid sequence, causing a desire for change.

A1 beta-casein produces beta
casomorphin-7 (BCM7) during digestion, which may affect opioid receptors and is linked to health risks like type 1 diabetes, heart disease, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), autism, insulin resistance, PCOS and neurological conditions.

A2 milk on the other hand does not generate BCM7, making it potentially safer for consumption, with some studies showing fewer incidences of cardiovascular disease and diabetes among those consuming A2 milk.

⤵️The results?
A1 beta-casein might pose health risks, while A2 beta-casein is a safer alternative.

Would you try A2 milk?
