What Is Driving The Growth Of The A2 Milk Market?
The growing incidence of lactose intolerance is propelling the A2 milk market forward. Lactose intolerance is a condition where the body is unable to fully digest lactose, a type of sugar found in milk and other dairy products. A2 milk is more suitable for lactose intolerant individuals compared to A1 milk, as it contains only A2 beta-casein protein and can be tolerated by them. For instance, in 2023, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a US-based governmental biomedical research agency, approximately 65% of the world’s population was lactose intolerant. In the US, the condition affected 50% to 80% of South Americans, 100% of American Indians, and around 60% to 80% of Ashkenazi Jews and Africans. As a result, the increasing cases of lactose intolerance are driving the A2 milk market.
