While cow’s milk and goat’s milk share many nutritional benefits, goat’s milk is naturally higher in protein, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin A. It is also lower in sugar and contains more of the essential fatty acids that are easily digested by intestinal enzymes. With ten percent less lactose (milk sugar), smaller fat globules, and a chemical similarity to breast milk, goat’s milk is also much friendlier to sensitive digestive systems.
