Devil in the Milk: Illness, Health, and the Politics of A1 and A2 Milk by Keith Woodford PhD

A groundbreaking work that examines the link between a protein in the milk we drink (A1 beta-casein) and a range of serious illnesses, including heart disease, Type 1 diabetes, autism, and schizophrenia. Milk that does not contain A1 is called A2 and formerly all milk was A2. Author Keith Woodford brings together the evidence published in more than 100 scientific papers that underpins the A1/A2 hypothesis and he examines the research undertaken with animals and humans. The evidence is compelling: We should be switching to A2 milk.
