Cows can have slightly different genetics. There are two genes that are one amino acid apart. Depending on which gene the cow has she can produce slightly different milk. Most cows produce milk that has A1 beta casein., this is what causes the issues for us. A2 milk has a slightly different protein called A2 beta casein. This is what is thought to be the original dairy protein but over time it has changed and now A1 dominates. Some people with intolerances to A1 are fine with A2. It is definitely worth a shot.
With any other sort of cows milk i get asthma related symptoms, and my D has runny poo and behavioural issues. (If i am being totally honest, i am way less moody, sleep better and have a general feeling that i am coping better when i eat 'properly' When i crack it over something little, my husband now says "What have you been eating?" ) We don't have the problems with A2.
But, it doesn't work for everyone.....
I prefer A2 to rice or oat because of the superior calcium content. Besides that it tastes great. I find rice milk a little sweet. I don't mind goat and sheeps milk and would reach for that before rice or oat. But having said that i do have rice and oat milk in the cupboard!
Prior to finding about the soy intolerance, i would avoid it like the plague anyway, I have read too much bad press on the phytoestrogens, cancer links, heavy metals blah blah blah. So am more than happy to be avoiding it all together.
