Pioneering beta-casein research

The a2 Milk Company are pioneers in beta-casein protein science. For over 25 years, we have worked alongside scientists from around the world to advance the scientific understanding of the unique digestive and potential other benefits of A1 protein-free milk.
As research and understanding continue to grow, we are committed to making this evidence accessible for healthcare professionals.

A1 Protein Free Milk Supports Cognitive Function in Chinese Older Adults
A recently published clinical study supports the role of cows’ milk in improving cognitive function and quality of life in older adults with mild cognitive impairment and severe vitamin D deficiency and suggests that A1 protein free milk may provide enhanced outcomes for some people. Further research is warranted to confirm these benefits to other population demographics.

At The a2 Milk Company we utilise advanced testing techniques in beta-casein protein detection for our products.
We also use proprietary protocols for production processes to minimise the chances of A1 protein entering our products at any stage during manufacturing.
We have invested in research and development of testing methods since the Company's inception and own a patented beta-casein testing method.
