About 0% FAT FREE MILK
The a2 Milk Company 0% Fat Free Milk is a nonfat milk specifically produced from cows that naturally produce only the A2 type of beta-casein protein rather than the more common mixture of A1 and A2 beta-casein found in conventional dairy herds. The a2 Milk Company, founded in New Zealand and expanded to the United States market in the 2010s, markets its milk based on the claim that A1 beta-casein produces a peptide fragment during digestion that some people with dairy discomfort may react to, while A2 beta-casein does not produce this fragment and may be more easily tolerated.
The scientific literature on A1 versus A2 milk and digestive comfort is ongoing and contested, but the a2 Milk brand has built a successful market niche around consumers who experience discomfort with conventional milk but do not have a full lactose intolerance diagnosis. The cows selected for the a2 herd are genetically tested to confirm they produce only A2 beta-casein, and the milk is processed normally without any special treatment to the protein. The fat-free version applies standard skimming to remove all milkfat, with vitamins A and D3 added back. The a2 Milk product has a slightly higher calorie count per serving than competing nonfat milks, possibly reflecting different protein content from the specific cow genetics or different testing methodology.
