A2 milk is believed to be more beneficial than A1 milk.The Food Safety Department of New Zealand claims as follows,

{quote|text="The strongest evidence is for type 1 diabetes and heart disease. The main study supporting a relationship with the type of milk consumed was a comparison of 20 countries. Those countries with the highest consumption of A1 β-casein had the highest rates of type 1 diabetes and heart disease."[2]}

{quote|text="As a matter of individual choice, people may wish to reduce or remove A1 β-casein from their diet (or their children's diet) as a precautionary measure. This may be particularly relevant for those individuals who have or are at risk of the diseases mentioned (type 1 diabetes, coronary heart disease, autism and schizophrenia)."}[3]

Notably, Professor Boyd Swinburn stated in his Report to the New Zealand Food Safety Authority entitled ‘Beta casein A1 and A2 in milk and human health’ (2004) that:

“The appropriate government agencies have several important responsibilities in this matter: to support further research in the area (especially clinical research); to clearly communicate the state of knowledge and judged risks to the public, and; to take specific actions to promote and protect the health of the public, where appropriate”.

[4]

The milk war is raging. The A2 representatives took court action over a claimed huge cover-up of the health risks by some mainstream dairy interests. In turn, pressure from dairy companies led to Food Standards successfully suing A2 for misleading advertising.

Dr Woodford added:{quote|text= "I am not saying to people not to drink, if people think they are in a risk category, if they think they are in a family where there tends to be type 1 diabetes, or heart disease or autism then I would say stay totally of the A1 milk, normal milk.}

{quote|text="I would like consumers to make up their own mind and come to their own conclusions based on the evidence.}"[5]
