Information currently available about A1 and A2 milk does not provide a good enough reason to change the Food Standards Code, according to Food Standards Australia NZ.
According to A2 milk supporters, the milk can protect drinkers from diabetes and heart disease, but FSANZ has said the claims are unsupported.
FSANZ has looked at the scientific evidence on the health effects of the two milks and concluded it couldn’t change the regulations, based on what’s currently known.
The European Food Safety Authority recently made a similar decision.
