Guest guest Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi a, I had never heard of it and did a bit of research on line. The aqueous extract is supposed to exhibit anti-microbial properties www.naturalmedicinalherbs.net/.../medicago-lupulina=black-medick... Another site says it has all the qualities of alfalfa au.groups.yahoo.com/group/FoodHerbHealth/.../1545 - Australia  Anne  Subject: Medicago lupulina To: ukherbal-list Date: Wednesday, 17 August, 2011, 15:12  Has anyone come across uses of black medick (medicago lupulina)? I'm sure I've read somewhere that it was the original herb used for what we now use Medicago sativa (alfalfa) for but can't now find the source. Black medick has appeared from nowhere in my herb garden and I feel there must be a reason for it and perhaps I should tincture it - any ideas folks? a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
