Facts from the farm 🤗 we are striving to be a top notch Herdshare for our community. So why we will be all A2 cows by fall?
What does A2/A2 mean when it comes to raw milk? 🥛✨
We get asked this question a lot! Here is the quick breakdown of what makes it so special:
A2/A2 simply refers to a cow's genetics. An A2/A2 cow inherited the A2 gene from both parents. This means she produces milk containing only the A2 type of beta-casein protein—completely free of the A1 protein found in standard, store-bought or other commercial dairy.
When you combine A2/A2 genetics with raw milk, you get the ultimate dairy experience. Here is why our members love it:
✨ Gentler Digestion: The A2 protein does not break down into the peptide BCM-7 during digestion, which is often the real culprit behind the bloating, gas, and stomach discomfort people mistake for lactose intolerance.
✨ Less Inflammation: Because it skips that BCM-7 breakdown, A2/A2 milk is much easier on the gut and naturally less inflammatory.
✨ Living Enzymes & Probiotics: Because raw milk is never heated or pasteurized, it retains the natural enzymes and beneficial bacteria that actively support your digestive tract.
✨ Preserved Nutrients: Without heat processing, delicate vitamins (like vitamins B and C) stay entirely intact.
✨ Healthy, Whole Fats: It delivers clean, naturally occurring fats, including beneficial omega-3s and vital fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) exactly as nature intended.
Let’s enjoy our food the way it was intended—pure, fresh, and completely unprocessed!
