Ever hear of A1 and A2 milk? Evidently I haven't been paying much attention to Crohn's research lately.

[quote]All milk was A2 until several thousand years ago, when a natural mutation occurred in the ancestors of modern European cattle. Herds throughout much of Asia, Africa and southern Europe remain naturally high in A2 cows.[/quote]

[quote]There is a large body of evidence from more than 100 peer-reviewed medical and science papers linking one of the proteins in A1 milk to illnesses such as type 1 diabetes, heart disease, autism, schizophrenia, auto-immune diseases and Crohn's disease.[/quote]

First MAP and now A1 milk? *sigh*

I never heard (or is that herd :-) ) of A1 versus A2 milk. I'll have to look into this. I am one of those odd CDers who has no problem with milk/milk products. Maybe Upstate NY cows are descendants of A2 cows :-) If it weren't so fattening, I'd drink a big glass of whole milk today and remember the good old days of childhood and milk delivered to our doorstep.
