Quality food and a balanced diet play the leading role in the correct development of the child body. Furthermore, it is extremely important that the products for child nutrition are produced in Russia; it will let control all the production process chain and be sure in the quality and the result. So we are very happy that ‘A2 Moloko’ company has launched its own A2 milk and dairy products manufacture in Russia.

For almost 20 years we have been carefully studying the role of protein components of milk, casomorphins, in the process of child psychomotor development. It was established that breast milk casomorphins are very important for the child’s full development in a normal tempo, while foreign cow milk casomorphins are able to have a negative impact.

Considering this data, a new breed of A2 cows was created in New Zealand, and casomorpin is not formed in their milk! This let the scientists develop a new type of diet nutrition.

It is wonderful that A2 milk will finally appear in Russia and people in our country will be able to estimate its benefits in practice.

During A1-caseins digestion a significant excess of β-casomorphins appears. This may badly impact on peristalsis of intestines, and lead to creation and development of inflammation in the GI tract walls. At the same time, the number of β-casomorphins entering the blood increase along with their impact on specific opioid receptors, DPP4, etc. All these events increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, endocrine and autoimmune pathology, nervous system disorders.

Researchers from many different countries gradually expand the evidence base that proves A1-caseins digestion problems. However, for a variety of reasons this is happening very slowly. While an ordinary person who faced milk intolerance problems sometimes has no time to wait the final ‘scientific clarity’. And if they do not feel like refusing their dietary habits, everyone is free to try A2 milk, listen to their own feelings and say: ‘I guess, there is no difference.’ or ‘Yes, I feel better now!’

It is simply impossible to find a product that would replace milk. As a rule, long-livers of the planet prefer dairy products to all other food. But what is to be done with hypersensitivity for usual milk? The product reestablishment in the menu has become possible thanks to A2 milk.

Digestive ferments able to process milk protein interact with A1 and A2 β-caseins in different ways. In the case of A2 milk the digestion passes with no prominent distention, stomach rumbling or discomfort. A2 milk is good for people hypersensitive for milk, for patients recovering from inflammatory bowel disease, for children as well as for elder people.

All the recent years studying the difference between A1 and A2 milk has been an important part of my professional life. A2 milk is completely natural milk. A1 milk has appeared as a result of a mutation that happened several thousand years ago. During A1 milk digestion a small opioid fragment of β-casomorphine-7 is released. This peptide’s action slows down the flow of food through the GI tract. This may lead to a more intense fermentation process and cause discomfort.

Thanks to laboratory and clinical research, we are also aware of the inflammatory role of this peptide. In certain cases the peptide may cause a series of autoimmune reactions. This is especially significant for children, but it is important for all the other age groups as well. All the head of cattle should be done into A2 type. This is already happening in many countries, and I am happy that these processes are starting in Russia as well.
