Milk - yes. We had our own goats milk for 25+ years, began reading about the A1A2 genetic mutation in cows about 10 years ago. More evidence shows cows that produce milk with A1 proteins in it have a casein called BCM7. This can cause lots of discomfort which some people mistake for lactose intolerance. A2 milk is just from cows that have been carefully screened and only produce A2A2 milk. It is delicious and available in most states now. More info at wwww.a2milk.com. Many testimonials too on their facebook page.

Interesting. I have trouble drinking milk with lactose. Stomach gurgles all day. Gas. No problem with Lactaid Milk.

Background

Dietary guidelines recommend minimizing consumption of whole-fat dairy products, as they are a source of saturated fats and presumed to adversely affect blood lipids and increase cardiovascular disease and mortality.

Evidence for this contention is sparse and few data for the effects of dairy consumption on health are available from low-income and middle-income countries.

Therefore, we aimed to assess the associations between total dairy and specific types of dairy products with mortality and major cardiovascular disease.
