Study Links Regenerative Dairy Practices to Superior Nutritional Profiles
A year-long independent study of Alexandre Family Farm’s A2/A2 milk shows the brand achieves a 1:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids. This result significantly outperforms conventional dairy products, which typically exhibit much higher ratios, and aligns with nutritional guidelines aimed at reducing inflammatory dietary patterns in consumers.
Conducted by food quality firm Edacious, the testing involved monthly sampling of the California-based farm’s products across 60 nutrient markers. Beyond the fatty acid profile, the analysis confirmed the milk is effectively free of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, and cadmium, while maintaining protein levels that exceed the average retail samples recorded in U.S. Department of Agriculture databases. These findings bolster the argument that regenerative land management, specifically year-round grazing on perennial pastures, directly influences the micronutrient density of dairy products.
Stephanie Alexandre, co-owner of the farm, noted that the data confirms the connection between healthy soil and human health outcomes. The study highlights that the milk serves as a significant source of calcium, Vitamin B2, and phosphorus, providing 20 percent or more of the Daily Value per serving. The company plans to leverage this verified data in future consumer education efforts and packaging updates to differentiate its grass-fed offerings from top-tier retail competitors.
