Talk:Galega officinalis

message: Its name derives from gale (milk) and ega (to bring on), as Galega has been used as a galactogogue in small domestic animals (hence the name "Goat's rue").
Perhaps I am dense, but it is not at all clear to me how the plant's use to inspire milk in domestic animals explains the name Goat's "rue". That sounds like it would be more appropriate of a plant used to poison small domestic animals.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.72.114 (talk) 00:15, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Please note that I did not seek reliable data regarding the efficacy. This would be helpful, but I didnt do it, so please be apprehensive about the claims made by Legendairy. If something is added to the article, I super recommend explicitly conveying the wisdom of approaching supplements with skepticism.
It is used by the brand "Legendairy Milk" in their supplement "Liquid Gold." This is a supplement intended for human consumption. Instructions: "Suggested Use: 2 capsules 3 times daily. Take with food and drink to thirst." (That is the exact wording used on the bottle.)
For reference (in case the supplement goes out of business, which they often do, or can't be found), the bottle of "Liquid Gold" claims of goat's rue: "Its scientific name is derived from the Greek words "gala" = milk and "agein" = to drive."
The "nutritional facts" portion of the label claims there are "1,040 mg per serving" of the following ingredients (it isn't clear if the supplement contains 1,040 mg of each, or if the ingredients culminate to 1,040 mg of the "proprietary blend"):
Organic goat’s rue (herb)
Organic milk thistle (seed)
Organic shatavari (root)
Organic fennel (seed)
Organic alfalfa (leaf)
Organic anise (seed)
An additional ingredient is listed below this section, and it just says "vegetable capsule (Pullulan)."
THERE IS A WARNING that it may cause hypoglycemia/low blood sugar, and that it isn't intended for use during pregnancy, and that allergic reaction may occur.
