Hi…Cows milk is a lighter option for those watching their weight due to its lower fat and calorie content but if it is for Muscle Growth than Buffalo milk's higher protein content can be beneficial for muscle growth and recovery.
Cow milk is generally considered easier to digest and a better choice for people with sensitive stomachs or lactose intolerance. Hence both the milk r healthy depending upon the reason why you r choosing which milk

For health it depends on each and every unique
characteristics of the individual. For example if the individual is having cardiac issues buffalo milk is not suitable as it is high in fat. But for the children it is good as it is high in protein which is used for growth related purpose and high in fat which is used for the brain development.
