India's rich heritage is woven with reverence for its native 'desi' cows. Breeds like the Gir, Sahiwal, and Tharparkar are not just livestock; they are celebrated in ancient texts like the Vedas and Ayurveda for their gentle nature and the superior quality of their milk. With their distinctive shoulder humps and resilient nature, these cows are perfectly adapted to our climate. But what makes their milk a true gift from nature is a crucial difference hidden deep within its molecular structure.

The secret lies in the type of beta-casein protein their milk contains. Indigenous Indian cows naturally produce milk that contains only the A2 type of protein. In contrast, most European and crossbred cow breeds (like Holstein Friesian or Jersey) produce milk with a mix of A1 and A2 proteins. This might seem like a small detail, but it has a significant impact on digestion. When the A1 protein is broken down in the gut, it can release a peptide fragment called BCM-7, which many people find difficult to digest, leading to discomfort, bloating, and other inflammatory responses. A2 milk does not produce this fragment, making it inherently gentler and more compatible with the human body.

This scientific fact validates what Ayurvedic wisdom has taught for centuries: that desi cow milk is lighter, more nourishing, and easier on the stomach. At Joi Farm, we are deeply committed to this principle. Our farm is exclusively home to indigenous cow breeds, ensuring that every drop of our milk is 100% pure A2 milk. We believe in providing our community in Kolkata with milk as nature intended it to be.
