Whats the difference between casein in breast milk and cows milk?
I’ve been reading quite a lot lately about how bad for you casein is in milk from cows for humans. Can someone tell me the difference between the casein found in cows milk as opposed to casein found in breast milk.
thanks.
Punkrock, i already know about the other stuff, i was more interested in the casein. I don’t drink milk anyway, but i appreciate your responses about it.

There isn’t really.
Casein is a type of protein. Its made from a couple of specific chains of amino acids. They serve the same purpose in human milk and cow milk, so there isn’t really a difference at all, health-wise.
The biggest difference between the milks is the digestability. Human breast milk is made specifically for human consumption. Cow’s milk is made for cows. So the casein, as well as the sugars, and pretty much everything else in the milks, will be easier for us to digest when they’re from human sources. Humans can get more “bang for the buck” so to speak, from breast milk than from cow milk, since our bodies break down the breast milk better.
maybe it’s the hormones, antibiotics, and pus that are in cows’ milk that is bad for you
not to mention the suffering of the cow
The mother has a choice to give her milk and the cow does not!
there isn’t much difference, one is from humans and one is from cows.
