a2 Milk® for healthcare professionals

Developed for healthcare professionals


This website has been developed by The a2 Milk Company to set out the research behind the A1 and A2 beta-casein protein variant types and is regularly reviewed so that it continues to provide up-to-date information on the latest research.

This resource centre also provides evidence-based information on paediatric health and nutrition, CPD tools, resources and patient handouts.

*A1 and A2 proteins refer to A1 and A2 beta-casein protein types

a2 Milk® is a trade mark of The a2 Milk Company Limited

a2 Milk® comes from cows specially selected to naturally produce milk with only the A2 beta-casein protein type so may be easier on digestion than regular milk for some milk intolerant individuals when consumed as part of a healthy, varied diet.
