Difficulties with Dairy – Is A2 Milk the Answer? Difficulties with Dairy – Is A2 Milk the Answer? So often, when someone experiences stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea and/or other disturbing gastrointestinal discomfort after milk or dairy products, he or she assumes “I guess I’m lactose intolerant and can’t enjoy milk anymore” – and that could be true, as an estimated 30-50 million Americans lack the ability to digest and absorb the naturally occurring milk sugar, lactose. However, some emerging research suggests that these unfortunate individuals may not have a lactose intolerance, but rather a protein intolerance. It is thought that A1, a natural variant of cow’s milk beta-casein protein may be culprit behind these less-than-pleasant post-dairy experiences, and that the relatively new-on-the-market “A2 Milk” may offer some relief to those that have difficulties with dairy. Milk Protein 101: There are 2 major protein groups in milk – casein and whey, the majority of which is casein. Caseins are actually a group of proteins; about 1/3 of caseins are beta caseins. The beta caseins have 2 common variants, A1 and A2 beta casein. Most milk contains a mixture of the A1 and A2 beta casein (about 60% A2, 40% A1), however, the ratio of these A2 and A1 proteins can vary with different breeds of dairy cattle. The Background: Thousands of years ago, cows only made milk with the A2 beta casein protein (not the A1). Some 8,000 years ago, a natural single genetic mutation of the beta casein protein gene in Holstein cows (the stereotypical black and white dairy cattle) resulted in production of milk with the A1 (and A2) beta casein protein. As Holsteins were bred with other breeds, the mutation spread, resulting in 12 genetic variations of the beta casein protein; of those, A2 and A1 are most common. A1 and A2 Beta Casein Proteins – What’s the difference? A1 and A2 beta casein proteins differ by only a single amino acid, however, they are digested differently. The breakdown of A1 beta casein protein (not A2) during digestion in small intestine produces a peptide called beta-casomorphin-1 (BCM-7). The intestines absorb BCM-7 and it is then passed on into the blood stream. There are several studies that suggest that BCM-7 (which is a byproduct of A1 beta casein digestion, but not A2) has inflammatory properties that can cause gastrointestinal symptoms similar to those of lactose intolerance – abdominal pain, gas, bloating, diarrhea, etc. In at least one study done on people that have self-reported problems with dairy, those that consumed milk that only contained the A2 variant of beta casein protein (and therefore were not exposed to BCM-7) reported less discomfort afterwards. What’s A2 Milk? A2 beta casein cow’s milk is milk that comes from cows that are hand-selected (genetically tested) to only produce milk with only the A2 beta-casein variant; the cows do not have the gene to produce milk with A1 beta casein. A2 milk has been available in Australia and New Zealand since the early 2000’s and is available in the US now. Some American dairy farms are converting their herds to A2-producing milk, in anticipation of continued interest in this “new” milk in the U.S. In San Antonio, at the time of the writing of this article, you can find A2 beta casein milk at Sprouts and Whole Foods marketed by the A2 Milk Company. Like Drinking Milk But Don’t Feel So Good Later? If you don’t have a true, diagnosed milk allergy (these can be life-threatening), and aren’t REALLY sure if you are lactose-intolerant or not, but know that you don’t feel good after consuming milk/dairy products (stomach pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, nausea, etc.), you may want to try a lactose-free milk to see if it helps (Lactaid, Mootopia, HEB Lactose-Free milk). If you feel okay after drinking lactose-free milk, voila! You’ve found the culprit to your woes – lactose! If you continue to experience symptoms after lactose-free milk, you may want to give A2 milk a try. If you can enjoy A2 milk without any problems, you can deduce that you probably have an intolerance or sensitivity to A1 beta casein protein. Both lactose-free milk and A2 milk contain all the protein, vitamins, and minerals as “regular” milk, because they are real milk. Bottom-Line: Current science supports consumption of cow’s milk and dairy products as sources of essential nutrients. There isn’t strong evidence to prove that A2 milk is “healthier” than ordinary milk that contains A1 and A2 beta casein protein. There is limited evidence to suggest that A2 milk may help prevent digestive issues in some individuals that are experience unpleasant symptoms after consuming milk. A2 milk and ordinary milk (that contains A1 and A2 beta casein protein) are safe, wholesome, nutritious, and part of a healthy balanced diet.

    Casein Proteins as a Vehicle to Deliver Vitamin D3: Fortification of Dairy Products with vitamin D3 and Bioavailability of Vitamin D3 from Fortified Mozzarella Cheese Baked with Pizza by Banaz Al-khalidi A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Graduate Department of Nutritional Sciences University of Toronto © Copyright by Banaz Al-khalidi (2012) Casein proteins as a vehicle to deliver vitamin D3: Fortification of dairy products with vitamin D3 and Bioavailability of vitamin D3 from fortified Mozzarella cheese baked with pizza Banaz Al-khalidi Master of Science Department of Nutritional Sciences, Faculty of Medicine University of Toronto 2012 ABSTRACT Current vitamin D intakes in Canada are inadequate. The extension of vitamin D fortification to additional foods may be an effective and appropriate strategy for increasing vitamin D intakes in the general population. Cheese is potentially an ideal candidate for vitamin D fortification. We introduce the potential use of casein proteins as a vehicle for vitamin D3 fortification in industrially made cheeses where we found that over 90% of vitamin D3 added to milk was retained in both Cheddar and Mozzarella cheeses. Use of casein proteins for vitamin D3 fortification did not fully prevent vitamin D3 loss into whey. However the loss was minimized to approximately 8%. We then show that vitamin D3 is bioavailable from fortified Mozzarella cheese baked with pizza suggesting that the high temperature baking process does not significantly breakdown vitamin D3. Our findings could have important implications in increasing fortified food options for Canadians. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................................................

However, as dairy-intolerant athletes do not obtain the reported benefits from milk-based products, A2 milk may offer a suitable alternative as it lacks the A1-protein. This study aimed to determine the effect of A2 milk on recovery from a sports-specific muscle damage model. Twenty-one male team sport players were allocated to three independent groups: A2 milk (n = 7), regular milk (n = 7), and placebo (PLA) (n = 7). Immediately following muscle-damaging exercise, participants consumed either A2 milk, regular milk or PLA (500 mL each). Visual analogue scale (muscle soreness), maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC), countermovement jump (CMJ) and 20-m sprint were measured prior to and 24, 48, and 72 h post EIMD. At 48 h post-EIMD, CMJ and 20-m sprint recovered quicker in A2 (33.4 ± 6.6 and 3.3 ± 0.1, respectively) and regular milk (33.1 ± 7.1 and 3.3 ± 0.3, respectively) vs.

  • Gluten Free Casein Free Diet
    GLUTEN FREE, CASEIN FREE DIET The gluten free, casein free (GFCF) diet has been shown to be helpful for individuals with allergies to these particular foods and specifically in the management of autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Proteins found in grain and dairy products, known as gluten and casein respectively, are believed to be poorly broken down in the digestive tracts in some people. When these proteins are not digested properly they can be absorbed intact into blood circulation. These proteins can affect the brain by crossing the blood-brain barrier and binding to opioid receptors. This can affect mood, concentration, mental performance and pain tolerance (i.e. in autistic children this will increase their pain threshold). Research has shown significant improvement in several conditions, including schizophrenia and autism, following a GFCF diet. In a survey of over 3500 parents of autistic children, it was reported that 70% found a GFCF diet improved behavior, eye contact and socialisation, concentration and learning. It is recommended to follow the GFCF diet strictly for at least 6 months to assess the benefit of this diet. Below is a list of foods containing gluten and casein that are suggested to avoid, plus a list of alternative GFCF choices. RECOMMENDED AVOID GRAINS AND • Amaranth • Baked Beans unless gluten free LEGUMES • Basmati Rice • Flours: Wheat flour, wholemeal flour, • Beans bakers flour, semolina, barley, rye • Brown Rice (avoid battered or crumbed food) • Buckwheat • Wheat including durum, semolina, • Chickpea triticale,

  • Casein Products
    CASEIN PRODUCTS Casein is the principal protein found in cow’s milk from which it has been extracted commercially for most of the 20th century. It is responsible for the white, opaque appearance of milk in which it is combined with calcium and phosphorus as clusters of casein molecules, called “micelles”. The major uses of casein until the 1960s were in technical, non-food applications such as adhesives for wood, in paper coating, leather finishing and in synthetic fibres, as well as plastics for buttons, buckles etc. During the past 30 years, however, the principal use of casein products has been as an ingredient in foods to enhance their physical (so-called “functional”) properties, such as whipping and foaming, water binding and thickening, emulsification and texture, and to improve their nutrition. In New Zealand, casein is precipitated from the skim milk that is produced after centrifugal separation of whole milk. The skim milk may be acidified to produce acid casein or treated with an enzyme, resulting in the so-called rennet casein. The precipitated casein curd is separated from the whey, washed and dried. Water-soluble derivatives of acid caseins, produced by reaction with alkalis, are called caseinates. INTRODUCTION The amount of casein in cow’s whole milk varies according to the breed of cow and stage of lactation, but is generally in the range 24-29 g L-1. Casein contains 0.7-0.9% phosphorus, covalently bound to the protein by a serine ester linkage. Casein is consequently known as a phospho-protein. All the amino acids that are essential to man are present in casein in high proportions, with the possible exception of cysteine.
