A2 Beta-Casein Protein Cow's MilkAt Bubs, we want to help parents provide the very best nutrition for their little ones – which is why we’re dedicated to formulating clean, honest, natural food that you can trust. We’re all about growing new generations of happy, joyful bubs – and with premium, naturally sourced A2 beta-casein protein cow’s milk, our new Bubs Supreme has been crafted to help do just that.

But what is A2 beta-casein protein, exactly? And what kind of benefits does it offer for little ones living their best lives? We’re here to help!

What is A2 beta-casein protein?

Casein is a group of proteins found in milk that account for about 80% of milk’s protein content, and there are several different kinds of casein, including beta-casein. There are two different types of beta-casein – A1 beta-casein protein and (you guessed it!) A2 beta-casein protein. So put simply, A2 beta-casein protein is one of the types of protein found in cow’s milk.

What is the difference between A2 milk & normal milk?

Regular milk contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein protein, while A2 beta-casein protein milk comes from cows that don’t produce the A1 protein. Most of the cow’s milk products you’ll find at the supermarket these days contain both A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins (unless otherwise specified). Bubs Supreme – our most advanced formulation yet – is made with natural A2 beta-casein cow’s milk.

You might be wondering how we get this cow’s milk without the A1 protein. Well, it’s as simple as sourcing milk from cows that don’t produce the A1 beta-casein protein. Certain breeds of cows naturally produce milk with only A2 beta-casein protein. 

At Bubs, we source our A2 beta-casein protein cow’s milk from only the highest-quality farms. We work with farmers who show care, respect and kindness to their animals.

What benefits does A2 beta-casein protein offer?

So exactly why is A2 beta-casein protein cow’s milk better for you and your little ones? Some research suggests that A1 beta-casein protein may cause tummy discomfort and digestive symptoms, meaning A2 beta-casein protein cow’s milk may be gentler on little tummies. 

A2 beta-casein protein cow’s milk is not only a wonderful source of protein, which is essential for growing bodies but also a good source of calcium – great for strong, healthy bones and teeth – as well as nutrients like iodine, riboflavin and vitamin B12.
