True or False: There is Good A2 and Bad A1 Casein and Eating the too Much A1 Containing Regular Dairy is Going to Make You Fat, Sick and Insulin Resistant!
"A1 beta-casein is a health risk regular dairy consumers are exposed to." Truth or science fiction even Marvel would be ashamed to propagate? It sounds like yet another of these Internet humbug myths, but you will hardly believe it, there is actually a recent study investigating the differential effects of A1 vs. A2 beta-casein - and it's not a rodent study (Ho. 2014)! The scientists from the Curtin University were intrigued by the previous in-vitro and animal studies which suggest that digestion of A1 but not A2 beta-casein affects the gastrointestinal motility and inflammation through the release of beta-casomorphin-7. In their latest study, Ho, Woodford, Kukuljan & Pal did thus aim to "evaluate differences in gastrointestinal effects in a human adult population between milk containing A1 versus A2 beta-casein."
