I don't understand how your post relates to the article. I agree that the whole A2 thing is lacking evidence, but just because some people are buying the product for bad reasons (e.g. virtue or affluence signalling) doesn't mean it's all bad.

As I understand it, some cows produce milk with A1 protein and some cows produce milk with A2 protein. In normal milk these two types get mixed together indiscriminately. The A2 product is simply a matter of identifying the A2 cows and only using their milk.

Most people are not gluten intolerant. But a few people are. A nice side-effect of the gluten-free bullshit is that these legitimate sufferers have many more food options available to them in shops and cafes.

I sometimes order a gluten free brownie because it looks delicious. And sometimes I walk up the ramp that was intended for wheelchairs.

It's a mixed bag on the gluten free thing, with more availability of GF foods but the GF label not meaning crap to a real Celiac sufferer anymore.

But nobody has an a1 allergy. This is just making the fad without the medical condition existing at all. So in this case, no, there is no benefit, aside from redistributing wealth from the feebleminded to the "job creators". Some people think that's a good thing.
