What breed of cows does your Organic Grass-fed Whey come from? Is it A2 milk?

Follow

Great question! 🐮

Natural Force Organic Grass-Fed Whey is sourced from milk produced by Jersey cattle, a heritage dairy breed known to have a higher prevalence of the A2 beta-casein gene than many conventional dairy breeds.

Is Organic Grass-Fed Whey Certified A2?

No.

We do not market or certify Organic Grass-Fed Whey as a "100% A2" or "Certified A2" product.

Are the Jersey Cows Tested for A2 Genetics?

No.

To make a verified A2 claim, dairy herds must undergo genetic testing and milk from A2-producing cows must be segregated throughout the collection and manufacturing process.

Because our milk supply is not managed under a certified A2 program, we do not make A2 certification claims.

Does Whey Protein Contain Casein?

Whey protein and casein are different protein fractions naturally found in milk.

During the manufacturing process used to produce whey protein, most of the casein is removed. However, small amounts of naturally occurring casein may remain in the finished product.

What Does This Mean for Organic Grass-Fed Whey?

While the milk used to produce Organic Grass-Fed Whey comes from Jersey cattle, the finished product has not been tested or certified as 100% A2 and should not be considered an A2-certified product.

If you'd like to learn more about A2 milk and dairy proteins, we recommend reviewing educational resources from dairy research organizations and scientific publications.
