POST WORKOUT RECOVERY DRINKTHE PERFECT
a2 Milk™ is delicious and nutritious cows’ milk which you may find easier to digest*
* Because you may be A1 milk protein intolerant.
Many people find a2 Milk™ easier to digest, perfect if you have really pushed yourself.
After all, the thousands of runners who down pints of milk after finishing a marathon can’t all be wrong!
Dr Hilary Jones lovesa2 Milk™ and says...
“Milk is a daily essential for most athletes in training. Plus, it’s an
excellent post-exercise recovery food, as it has a balance of protein,
carbohydrates, water and micronutrients.”
*Because you may be A1 milk protein intolerant.

HERE’S WHY
Cows’ milk contains different types of protein – including ones called A1 and A2.*
Many years ago all cows naturally produced milk containing the A2 protein. However during domestication by humans, the A1 protein appeared and spread throughout herds in Europe and around the world.
Recent studies show that these two proteins digest quite differently from each other and for some people, the presence
of A1 protein can result in discomfort after drinking milk.
How can a2 Milk™ help?Our certified dairy cows are carefully selected because they naturally produce milk with only the A2 protein and no A1 protein. So you too can enjoy the nutritional benefits of milk.*
Dr Corran McLachlan
Back in 2000 in New Zealand, Dr Corran McLachlan discovered the impact of this difference in proteins and founded The a2 Milk Company™.

scores with a2 Milk™
“Milk has always been a vital part of my training regime, but for some reason ordinary milk was making me feel lethargic and bloated. Since I discovered a2 Milk™ I have been feeling fantastic.
I know a2 Milk™ has become huge in Australia where it was initially launched and I once lived. I want to do the same here and help change the lives of kids and
adults who have had trouble with ordinary milk like me.
It has changed my life – I want to encourage others to try it for themselves.”
“Milk is such an important food - for growth, bone health and also for post-training recovery. If I hadn’t ditched ordinary milk and taken up a2 Milk™, I wouldn’t be feeling as good as I am today.”
DANNY CIPRIANI
“IF I HADN’T DITCHED ORDINARY MILK AND TAKEN UP a2 MILK™,
I WOULDN’T BE FEELING ASGOOD AS I AM TODAY.”
David Dunne lovesa2 Milk™ and says...“Milk has long been recognised as one of the most nutrient dense food sources in existence. It is a rich source of protein, an essential nutrient that supports growth, repair, hormone production, and many other biological processes. Milk is also high in calcium, which plays a key role bone health and well as physical growth and development
As a result milk often plays a key role in any athletes diet. However, despite not suffering from lactose intolerance, some athletes report feeling bloated or have an unsettled stomach after drinking milk. In these cases it can be worth trialing the athlete on a2 Milk™ to see if the reported issues clear. From my experience a2 Milk™ has helped a number of my athletes with these issues. It is worth noting that other diary products need to be restricted during this trial period as yoghurts and other A1 milk protein sources may interfere with the results.”

milk is a natural and delicious alternative that works just as well!
...plus smaller amounts of more
than a dozen other essential vitamins
and minerals, all of which come
together to help your body recover
from even your toughest workout!

If I have lactose intolerance, can I drink a2 Milk™?a2 Milk™ contains the same amount of lactose as standard milk, so it’s not a solution to medically diagnosed lactose intolerance. However, if you haven’t been
medically diagnosed, a2 Milk™ might be a good choice for you.
