Why is A2 milk better?

A2 milk is a more original type of milk that comes from sheep, goats and occasionally from certain breeds of cows. For almost all people, A2 milk is much more digestible and easier to tolerate than conventional cow's milk. This also applies to the proteins from these types of milk. The so-called A2 casein from goat's milk has a structure that makes it more digestible even for sensitive people with, for example, autoimmune diseases and intolerances.

How can I use the A2 protein?

The A2 protein tastes neutral and creamy. It is therefore a great protein-rich addition to shakes, muesli, porridge or even creamy sauces. The protein is heat-stable and is therefore ideal for cooking or baking. We've even used it to conjure up creamy curries and salad dressings or simply replaced some of the flour with A2 protein when baking. If you're looking for inspiration, take a look at our recipes .

Where does the A2 protein come from?

Our A2 protein comes from goat milk that comes from goat farms in Austria. Why Austria? Keeping goats in Austria has significantly higher requirements and better conditions for keeping animals than in Germany.

What is the difference between casein and whey again?

Casein is a milk protein that can be extracted from milk alongside whey. Unlike whey, it nourishes you for a longer period of time and keeps you fuller for longer. In terms of texture, it is creamier than whey and is therefore also suitable for baking and cooking.

Does it contain lactose?

Yes, it contains a residual component of lactose. If you suffer from lactose intolerance, we recommend that you test our product in small quantities first. The lactose from goat's milk is often better tolerated than that from cow's milk. Nevertheless, this should always be tried out for the individual case.

Is there a dosage recommendation that I shouldn't exceed?

Not really, because it's a protein powder. Eating a diet high in protein is generally healthy and beneficial for building muscle, losing fat and recovering. But as with all foods, don't overdo it. We don't eat 18 apples a day either.

Can the A2 protein lead to histamine release?

A histamine reaction to casein protein powder is unusual but can occur in general. If you are sensitive to histamine, we would recommend our organic pasture whey. A study showed that a histamine reaction rarely or almost never occurs. However, this study was conducted with cow's milk casein and not our goat casein. It may therefore be that our goats are more tolerant of casein in terms of histamine release.

Does the A2 protein have a negative impact on my LDL cholesterol?

No. In general: A high consumption of (animal) saturated fatty acids or trans fats from fried and highly processed foods can lead to increased "bad" LDL cholesterol. Our A2 goat protein only has a fat content of 2%, which is 2 g of fat per 100 g (i.e. negligible) and just 1 g of this comes from saturated fatty acids. In short: There is so little fat in our protein that it couldn't possibly have any effect on cholesterol levels.
