Humans have been drinking milk for over 10,000 years. An integral source of nutrition, and a building block for modern civilisation, this liquid gold has fueled human advancement since we first took a drink.
Since then, there have been many innovations to the humble glass of milk, including turning liquid gold into dry milk powder. And while we’d love to talk about the virtues of other milk varieties, we’re here to talk about using milk powder; specifically, NATUREDAY A2+ Probiotics Formulated Full Cream Milk Powder.
While you might be familiar with the benefits of A2 milk, the + in our Full Cream Milk Powder promises to improve bone and intestinal health and boost immunity thanks to a winning combination of A2 β-casein proteins and 1.7 billion patented probiotics.
We call it ultimate absorption, but we’re confident you’ll call it delicious whether you drink it, cook with it, bake with it or just want to dunk a few cookies into it.
If you’re not sure where to start, we’ve got six reasons why you should use NATUREDAY A2+ Probiotics Formulated Full Cream Milk Powder.
1. It’s delicious
The most straightforward and obvious reason to use NATUREDAY A2+ Probiotics Formulated Full Cream Milk Powder is to drink it. Sourced from our famous KiwiCross cows, each glass of NATUREDAY A2 + Probiotic milk aims to safeguard the health of your whole family without compromising on flavour or nutrition.
So, how many scoops of milk powder do you need for one cup of milk? Five, to be exact, but a few more steps are required before you have a delicious glass of NATUREDAY A2+ milk to enjoy.

Ingredients
Approx. 35g NATUREDAY A2+ Probiotics Formulated Full Cream Milk Powder
225ml water

And if you want to take things a little further. Making hot chocolate with NATUREDAY A2+ milk powder means you only need to add water. An excellent solution for large batches or the office snack drawer.
2. It’s Nutritious
One glass of NATUREDAY A2+ milk offers 8.4g of protein, equivalent to 1.4 eggs, 50g of meat, 420g of spinach, or about a third of a standard protein shake. But that’s not all. Each glass offers 72% of an adult's daily calcium needs, alongside Vitamin D3 and Vitamin A, to assist with absorption.
Then there are the high levels of Vitamin E and C to eliminate free radicals and enhance immunity. And finally, magnesium for maintaining normal nerve and muscle function supports a healthy immune system and helps bones remain strong. Magnesium also helps adjust blood glucose levels and aids in the production of energy and protein.
Essentially, a glass of NATUREDAY A2+ milk is everything you need on your roadmap to optimal health. But if you want to take things a bit further, we’ve got a delicious cacao avocado smoothie for you to enjoy on the regular.
