What is A2 Milk? Gut-Healthy Milk from Raw Life Farms Grass-Fed Cows

Raw Life Farms is a beloved local producer of raw milk, raw cream, and raw butter for the Treasure Valley. Did you know that milk from Raw Life Farms, while not officially A2 certified, consistently tests for a high percentage of A2, around 90%?

This means the cows at Raw Life Farms naturally produce milk with the A2/A2 protein and little to no A1 protein. Nothing has been done to the milk to make it A2 milk. It's just normal, raw, unpasteurized milk straight from cows who produce naturally better milk.

What is A2 Milk?

A2 milk is more about what's NOT in the milk than what is in the milk. A2 milk has been tested to confirm the absence of A1 beta-casein protein, a common protein in most cow's milk. The A1 protein has been linked to gut inflammation, which causes GI distress and discomfort. This is why many independent scientific studies support consuming milk with the A2/A2 protein for a digestive advantage over other cow's milk.
