7. A2 Sheila Fitzgerald/ShutterstockA2's products claim to be easier to digest than other milks on the market. The brand only milks cows that produce milk containing A2 β-casein. This protein is less common than the blend of both A1 and A2 β-caseins that is found in most milks.Several scientific studies have demonstrated that drinking milk that only contains A2 β-casein results in significantly less gastrointestinal stress — including one published in the journal Nutrients – when compared with conventional A1 and A2 β-casein containing milk. Other critical reviews disagree. The colloquial evidence is also split. Some reviewers state the milk had no effect. But others, such as this Amazon reviewer, claimed life-changing effects: "Incredible! I have considered myself lactose intolerant for years ... it was actually my husband who found fresh A2 milk at our local Whole Foods store a few weeks back. It not only did not cause me stomach distress, but now we both drink it because we think the taste is far superior to the standard milk available in this country."A2 sells both grass-fed whole milk and grass-fed 2% milk. All cows that produce milk for grass-fed products are on pasture every day of the year. The milk is also certified regenerative by A Greener World, an animal welfare group also known as AGW. Finally, all A2 cows, whether they produce milk for the regular or grass-fed range, are Validus certified. This means all cows undergo a rigorous inspection to ensure animal welfare is up to scratch.Read More: https://www.thedailymeal.com/1287696/best-milk-brands-ranked/
