There seems to be more conflicting reports. Hes been here many times. I had no idea. I had never heard any of this.

In todays morning round, the special type of milk first developed in australia thats quickly catching on here in the such. The makers of a2 milk clak it is easier on the stomach than regular milk. It contains only a2 proteins. Regular has a1 and a2 proteins. People who find regular milk hard to digest say it is good news. Don daylor shows us why the dairy industry is not show sure. Good morning. Good morning. At first glance you might think it is another plantbased drink like almond milk but it is not. It is pure cows milk, no special additives and it is not lactosefree. The difference is a type of protein found in the milk, and makers say the difference can be life changing. Reporter four years ago lisa montasanty said her grandson stopped drinking milk when he was hit with severe stomach pain. He stopped drinking it because of the pain and the symptoms went away. Reporter when he saw the a2 milk, he told his grandmother he wanted to try it. I got it for him and he wanted to try it. Reporter blake water is the chief executive of a2 milk in the u. S. Theres a1 and a2 and we find the cows that only produce a2 proteins and thats what is in our milk. Reporter waltrip says for some people it is the a1 protein that makes milk difficult to digest. We think the problem is to a1 protein, not the lactose. They have a problem with the a 1 protein. Thats correct. Reporter a study claims when a1 proteins are broken in the gut they form a fragment called bcm7 that triggers inflammation and symptoms like bloating and abdominal pain. The National Dairy council says at this point a2s claims are theoretical and not back by scientific research. It is just a theory at this point in time. There are no signs that says theres any value in this a2 protein relative to conventional milk. Two studies that were done with a small number of subjects looked at different variables that dont give us the answer we need to be able to tell whether or not this is really true or not. Reporter some of the a2 milk sold in stores is produced here at Prairieland Dairy in nebraska. Where the milk from hundreds of cows that produce the a2 protein is collect. Interestingly, the cows that produce a2 milk are not genetically modified. To identify the ones producing the a2 protein a simple dna test is performed on newborn calves using hair follicles. They are separated from the rest of the herd so theres no cross contamination. The milk lines must be separated and cleaned thoroughly. Once bottled, the product must be tested again. The testing isnt cheap. No, the testing isnt cheap, but it is reflected, you know, in bringing this product to market. Reporter a2 milk is sold at a premium price, roughly 9 per gallon compared to around 5 per gallon for regular milk. So these calves have all been bred for the a2 protein . Thats right. Reporter dan rice is the pharmacy owner. Despite scepticism from the dairy industry, rice predicts a2 milk is the way of the future. Yeah, i think the industry eventually will be all a2. Reporter but for now the process is timeconsuming and costly. Yet despite the higher cost, lisa montasanti says she still gets this milk for the money. I have recommended it to anyone, i will say try it, it is worth it. Reporter while the dairy industry doesnt think a2 milk science is there yet, it says it welcomes innovation and promoting consumer choice. For now a2 milk is mostly sold in specialty or highend grocery stores, but the company says it expects to make a larger rollout in the near future. And it tastes like milk . It is milk can. Thats great. It will be good news for a lot of people who have digestive issues. Might want to try it and see if they can drink this as opposed to, you know, the lactosefree milk. Pricey but worth it. Do they make a chocolate version . Everybody ive heard, yes, the brown cows produce the chocolate. Not yet. Thats a fantastic story.

Were launching a new medical series this morning called grand rounds. Thats practice of senior million professionals who teach other the doctors about advancements in health care and treatment. Our focus today is Breast Cancer. As you may know, october is national Breast Cancer awareness month. One in eight women will get the disease in her lifetime, but with medical advances, the number of deaths has plunged nearly 40 from 1989 to 2015. Our doctor david agus is leading cancer expert and presented grand rounds for more than two decades around the world. The university of southern californias Cancer Center joins us at the table. Good to see you. It took two decades. It makes me sound old. No. Like an expert. Yeah. You know your stuff. Its great to hear theres a drop in the rates. Why . Its amazing, right. All of a sudden its dropping. Were screening people and getting mammograms like they should. And were Getting Better at treating it. Its early Breast Cancer when you take it out and give certain treatments you can dramatically reduce the rates of recurrence. Thats equaling more people surviving this horrible disease. What about new treatments. What are the exciting new treatments . Its a wild time for doing what we do is now when a person is diagnosed, we can look at the genes. We can see the on and off switches and can target them. We call it targeted therapy. Its saving lives. And the newest form is blocking the signal on the cancer. It allows the patients cells to attack the cancer. Both are making people live longer and better. Which cancers are hereditary . About 5 to 10 are hereditary. Brca 1 and 2 means so you a 60 to 80 chance of getting Breast Cancer. The test was thousands of dollars. Now the Supreme Court said you can no longer a patent a gene in the country and the test is 99. Do you think more people should get a test . To me its a no brainer. You dont get false positive. And when angelina jolie, you know, heroically said i have the faulty gene, it opened the doors to say its okay to actually look and to talk about it. Besides skin cancer, its one of the most diagnosed cancers. Why is that . You know, its a great question. You have a lot of muscle in your body. And yet your breasts are a small fraction of that. One in eight women get Breast Cancer. We dont know the true answer. But the areas that make milk can make cancer. We see it increase decade by decade. 20s its rare. 70 and 80s its more common. We know Early Detection matters. Mammograms, not the greatest test in the world, if youre the consumer. Not fun. Its not. I had one the other day. I swear to you, david, if men had to go through if you had your you know what smashed, they would figure out another way to do it. Its uncomfortable or pleasant. Depending on the tech. Do you see a day that you dont have to have that procedure done . Marie curry developed the xray. Its a great test and everyone should have it. We need more research and better ways to detect this disease. What is the big unanswered question about Breast Cancer . I think the biggest unanswered question why does it happen . We have ways to prevent it. If a woman takes some of the es to jen throughs you can dramatically reduce the zins of it. We know taking hormonereplacement therapy. Alcohol is a risk factor. Being sedentary. Being overweight is risk factor. We know about those. We dont know the root of why it happens. Thank you. Great to have you here. Thank you so much. Reminder i need to get a mammogram. Yes. The days of overstuffed wallets in the back pocket or purse might soon come to an end. By 2020 mobile wallets are expected to surpass the use of cred and debit cards in the u. S. It already happened in china. We are in beijing to show us what a nearly Cashless Society looks like. Good morning. Reporter good morning. When i moved here to china a couple of months ago, i kept getting funny looks every time i would pull cash out of the wallet. And i got one of these. Its a code on my phone and now i can buy anything here in china. When you pay for something. How do you pay for it . Reporter on the streets of beijing, cash is definitely not cake. What do you think of people who use cash to pay for things . Translator its rare and weird, he says. Only the elderly people and people dont know how to use a phone pay cash. This woman said i rarely take my wallet when i go out. Just my phone. Thats because those phones can buy just about anything. From clothes in the store to steamed buns on the street. Theyre used to pay for bike rides and bus rides. Rent and utility bills. Reporter when was the last time you used cash. A month ago. Thats a long time. It dominates chinas mobile market and payments on the platform total more than 5. 5 trillion last year. A 200 jump from the year before. And nearly 50 times more than the value of mobile payments in the u. S. One of the big reasons mobile payments have caught on so quickly in china is because of what most people here dont have in their wallets. Credit cards. They basically went from a cashbased society to a cashless one and skipped the step in between. China leapfrogged the u. S. Going to a Cashless Society. Reporter this is an economist in beijing. He said chinas cashless revolution has happened in just three years. Largely thanks to these things called qr codes. You simply scan them with the phone to pay. Nearly every business and person has one. From the pardon mers market to the musician on the street playing for a mobile tip. You can give a homeless person money with your phone. You would never see it in the u. S. All you have to do is scan the code to transfer money. And it is ubiquitous in china. Some of the largest cities. The Fanciest Hotels to the most humble street side shacks use qr codes. Reporter the chinese are comfortable doing everything on their phones. While in the u. S. , credit cards and Online Shopping via personal computers still rule. These kinds of legacy technologies make any adoption of newer generations for technologies much more slower. So in this sense, i think the u. S. Has a little bit of catching up to do. A recent survey found that 40 of Chinese People carry less than 15 on them. But they would never dream of leaving home without this as one guy told me on the street, you cant achieve anything without your phone. Gayle . That guy on the street was very correct. Thank you.

I would stand in the corner and whip up egg whites when he would tell me. Youve become an expert. I think i am. In our shops in london we have mountains of meringue. People who come in are absorbed by meringue. Theres raspberry meringue and chocolate meringue. What do you say to people . Like anything, you could abuse it or use it and i think sugar that comes from snack bars or savory food, all the hidden sugars are what you dont want to consume. But making a cake and baking it, its a lovely home ritual and it would be a shame to lose a bit of the culinary arts because were a bit obsessed at the moment. You say tarts and pies are a sense of the occasion. Do you believe anybody can be a baker . Anybody . Absolutely. Absolutely. I think youre wrong. I think i can give you a private lesson. I think you should too. You think baking is different than any other types of food. Instructions in a baking recipe are very, very clear. Youve got the size of the pan, the temperature, you know how long youre going to bake it. When you cook a fish, its very easy to overcook it.
