Because beer, but not ethanol, has been reported in a number of studies to stimulate prolactin levels and breastmilk production, polysaccharide from barley was chosen as a potential galactogogue.

The study was conducted according to good clinical practice and 10% of output data was audited by the outside monitor. The research was conducted from 14 April 2014 to 7 October 2015 in two NICUs with consent of the ethics committee on Medical Warsaw University.
