Hi
In terms of digestibility, A2 milk is easier to digested for some people. That is why they switch to A2. The difference being the type of casein, a milk protein.
However, if anyone has lactose intolerance, then A1 or A2, doesn’t make a big difference.
Nutritionally they are both the same. Also always choose low-fat dairy products instead of full-fat ones.

A2 is favourable but the other one will also not create a problem. The idea is to focus on overall food intake for complete health and fitness.

If you digestion issues or find that A1milk causes discomfort, A2 from deshi cows is likely a better option
Desi cows milk is healthier in long term due to its richer nutritional profile especially if you’re looking natural, nutrient dense milk .
Jersey cow milk may be fine for people who don’t experience any sensitivity to A1milk , but if you’re prone to bloating, gas , or digestive problem, you might want to avoid it or try A2 milk instead
Conclusion:
For better digestion and overall health, A2 milk is generally recommended especially, if you’re sensitive to A1 beta casein
For taste and creamy texture, jersey cow milk can be a good choice
Ultimately, the best choice will depend on your individual health, taste preference and how your body reacts to milk consume.
