Many Germans blame milk for indigestion and complain of stomach pressure, flatulence or diarrhea when they drink a glass.

Milk is said to cause allergies and contribute to the development of prostate cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, autism and other neurological disorders.

In short: more and more people fear that milk is a harmful food.

Bas Kast, author of the “Nutrition Compass”, even recommends avoiding milk altogether and switching to almond and oat drinks.

There is great skepticism about milk, but the herbal and supposedly healthier substitute products are not for everyone. Many still long for the original taste of the “white gold”, but do not want to risk their health. The food market now has an alternative ready for them: A2 milk. Is it really more digestible?
