A2A2 Milk
The A2A2 Difference
Ever wonder why you can drink our milk versus others? The secret lies in our carefully selected herd of cows. Milk contains two main beta-casein proteins: A1 and A2. The types of proteins in milk depend on the cow’s natural genetics. Some cows naturally have the A1 gene and produce primarily A1 proteins while some have the A2 gene and produce A2 proteins. While both are naturally occurring in cows’ milk, studies show that the A1 protein can cause digestive discomfort for some people. Our A2A2 milk contains only the A2 protein, which is found to be easier on the stomach.
While we’re officially A2A2 now, our products haven’t changed a bit. It’s the same great taste and quality that you have come to know and love from our products – it simply comes from cows that naturally have two copies of the A2 gene in their DNA. The best part? It can be gentler on your belly!
