Why Jersey Milk?

The modern Jersey breed is unexcelled in dairy type. There are many reasons why Jersey milk is considered the Cadillac of all milk. We will focus on the two most important reasons why you should drink Jersey milk.

 

Taste

This nutrient-dense Jersey milk tastes better.  The reason is there are more protein, and calcium in her milk compared to other breeds.  Jersey milk naturally contains a 20% higher amount of butterfat than other breed’s milk.  Butterfat = Flavor!  Products such as milk, butter and ice cream made from Jersey milk will naturally have a creamier, richer flavor.  You can have the best of both worlds:  Quality and nutrition with a great flavor.  Try Jersey milk today!

Health

Compared to average milk, a glass of Jersey milk has greater nutritional value:  15% to 20% more protein, 15% to 18% more  calcium, and 10% to 12% more phosphorous, and also considerably higher levels of an essential vitamin, B12.  Whereas other breeds may produce a higher quantity of milk, the Jersey breed by far produces higher quality milk.  When it comes to what we eat and drink….quality matters!  Also, there is much research in the area of A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins and their effects on many illnesses including diabetes and lactose intolerance.  In short, milk with A2 beta-casein has many more health benefits than milk with A1.  The best way to get milk with a higher-than-average A2 content is to buy it from a dairy that uses A2-dominant cow breeds such as the Jersey.  To find A2 milk, the type that has not been associated with illness and instead appears to have numerous health benefits, look for milk that comes from Jerseys.  Simply switching breeds of cows could result in amazing health benefits.
