A1 Milk Vs A2 Milk – Which is the Best as per Ancient Ayurveda?

The cow is honored and adored as Gau Mata in the Indian civilization. As per the Ayurvedic perspective on milk, cows’ milk is regarded as Go Ksheer which is the purest food one can have. As Indians, we have the habit of starting our day with a warm cup of tea or coffee, so milk is a daily part of our lives. In ancient times we had only Indian desi cows but over the past 50 years, for commercial use of dairy farming, genetically engineered hybrid cows were introduced in India. Since then debate started over A1 milk vs A2 milk, why is A2 milk better than A1 milk as per ancient Ayurveda?

In this article, we are going to address this particular issue and give you clarity about which milk is the best. 

What are A1 Milk and A2 Milk?

A2 milk is from the Indian desi cows and is compatible with our bodies, therefore it doesn’t produce any toxins and no allergic reactions or food intolerances can be found.

Conclusion

A2 milk as per ancient Ayurveda is a safer and healthier option even for lactose-intolerant people. A2 milk outweighs its benefits over the risks of A1 milk. Ancient Ayurveda considers any food which is incompatible as virudh aahar. And, if consumed may lead to the release of Ama visha (toxins) in our body due to improper digestion. These toxins act as antigens and thereby the main cause of allergic reactions and hypersensitivity in our body.
