Ordinary Milk VS A2 Protein Milk—Does It Matter for Your Kids? - November 2024

“Nooooo I don’t want to drink it. No, mommy no!” And the drama begins… my little pumpkin used to ask for my milk when he was a baby, but now he even refused to have a sip of any milk! And as a not-so-knowledgeable-mother that I am, I thought he was just throwing tantrums until I realised that he often experienced a few tummy discomforts after he drinks milk. I went to seek an expert’s advice and to my surprise, I was informed that my child may have some allergies to the current milk - due to an immune reaction to one of the many proteins in the milk. Welp, I thought all milk just contains the same or one type of protein. From then onward, I got to know that ordinary milk contains both A1 and A2 protein, whereas there is A2 Protein Milk, which contains only the A2 protein; and these two affect the body differently. But, what is the difference between ordinary milk and A2 Protein Milk? Our body breaks down A1 protein (but not A2 protein) into a protein fragment called, beta-casomorphin-7 (BCM-7), which can cause inflammation. The BCM-7 that is in the ordinary milk is linked to stomach discomfort, inflammation, and other symptoms similar to those experienced by people with lactose intolerance. A study published in the Nutrition Journal in 2016 shows that people who drink A2 Protein Milk for two weeks, seemed to reduce the symptoms of digestive discomfort and inflammation, compared to people who drank milk that contains A1 protein. The same study also suggests that to avoid such inflammation, it is better for people to consume milk that contains only A2 protein. Not to mention, A2 Protein Milk also provides a variety of health benefits for your little one. Below are the health benefits of consuming A2 Protein Milk. Health Benefits of A2 Protein Milk for Your Children Healthy brain development. Better gut health. Strong bones and teeth, and secure bone loss. Assist in a child's body growth.
