Milk, sourced from healthy cows on healthy soil, is a nutrient-dense superfood. It is an excellent source of calcium, magnesium, phosphate, B vitamins, Vitamin D, iodine, potassium, healthy fats, amino acids, energy (from lactose) and protein. There are two types of protein found in milk – whey (20%) and casein (80%) – both of which are extremely efficient at helping our bodies absorb amino acids, build and repair muscle and more.

Today, the beta-casein found in cow’s milk is present in one of two variants: A2 beta-casein and A1 beta-casein. Originally, cow’s milk only had the A2 beta-casein protein present (A2/A2) – which is the same primary protein found in human milk. Because of this, A2 beta-casein is most natural to the human body and more easily absorbed.
