ANSWER: A2
 
  • Indigenous breeds of cows are known to produce A2 type protein rich milk which protects us from various chronic health problems such as Cardio Vascular Diseases, Diabetes and neurological disorders besides providing several other health benefits.
  • There are two types of milk in market – A1 and A2 type protein rich milk. Some say that A1 type protein rich milk can be dangerous for health. But yet sufficient evidence is yet to be found.
  • Regular milk contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein, but A2 milk contains only A2 beta-casein. There is separate A2 type milk available in many countries.
