A1 vs A2 MILK

Posted on by Bhavani Swaminathan

Did you have your cup of milk today ? I had my cup of A2 milk.

????

Let us first understand the difference between A1 & A2 milk. Beta Casein is a protein content in milk. All cows make beta casein. But it is the type of beta casein that matters. There are two types of beta casein : A1 & A2 and they differ by only one amino acid. Such a small difference can result in having different properties.

A1 Beta Casein comes from the jersey cow. It can be found in all commercially prepared milk.

A2 Beta Casein is protein found in milk produced by Desi Gaay (local breed). Also A2 milk is similar to goat’s milk and mother’s milk and is suitable for human consumption. A2 protein in gentle for sensitive tummies. If you are lactose intolerant then A2 milk is the best for you. It is also high in omega 3 & 6, vitamins, calcium, minerals and many more. A2 milk is not only nutritious by also easier to digest.

Good Health = Good Sense

What came first into the earth- the chicken or the egg?

This dilemma stems from the observation that all chickens hatch from eggs and all chicken eggs are laid by chickens.

Similarly, does a healthy body breed a healthy mind or does a healthy mind breed a healthy body?

A healthy body would breed a healthy mind, and a healthy mind would breed a healthy spirit. And vice versa. In my opinion, it’s a loop. A circle.

Our body is a cacoon for our mind, and our mind is the brain of inside our cacoon- responsible for thoughts, feelings and intelligence.

Basically, our body is like a host, being controlled by a parasite-our mind. Both are inseparable. Both cannot exist without each other. Hence, our mind and our body is inter connected.

We need to bank on this connection & make this loop work! And how does this loop work? Here’s how-

You eat healthy, minimise binging on junk, exercise and treat your body with care, the mind automatically feels energised and creates positive vibes. A positive mind, motivates you to work harder to stay fit and healthy.

Good health will induce Good sense and good sense will help you create the life you’ve always wanted!

So folks, start from today, start from this very moment- sharpen your mind, harden your body and feed your soul!

Mudra Therapy

EARTH,  the characteristic attribute is solidity or strength.

WATER, thecharacteristic attribute is fluidity or instability.

FIRE, the power that can convert a substance from solid to liquid to gas or vice versa. The characteristic attribute is alteration or modification.

AIR, the characteristic attribute is flexible or dynamism. Air is existence without form.

SPACE, has no physical existence; it exists only as the distances that separate matter.

The universe is composed of these five elements. The human body is also composed of the same five elements, being a miniature universe. Good Health can be maintained only by a balanced and controlled functioning of each of these elements. Diseases are caused when there is an imbalance in these elements. These elements can be balanced in a number of ways. One of the easiest ways is practising Mudra Therapy as it is the most simple thing to do anywhere, any time and costs nothing.

The five fingers of each hand represent the five elements.

Fire   →  Thumb

Air   → Index Finger

Space   →   Middle Finger

Fire   →   Ring Finger

Fire   → Little Finger
