Part 3 - What is Pasturization?

Part 4 - What is Homogenization?


If you’ve wandered past the milk section in your local grocery store lately, have you seen a milk carton that says A2 in very large letters?



A2 milk from a type of cow found mostly outside the USA, and in ancient times used as the main type of milk cow. It only has the A2 casein protein, while most cows have both A1 and A2 casein proteins.


It’s the A1 casein protein which might trigger gut intolerance in many people. Side effects of this include gut inflammation, diarrhea, gas, bloating or cramps.



Bottom Line?   If you have been dairy intolerant, A2 Milk may surprise you, and allow you to drink or cook with dairy products again!
