Abstract A phytocomplex composed by Schizochytrium limacinum, a species of marine alga, Galega officinalis, an herbaceous plant of the Faboideae subfamily, and linseeds, was administered to lactating grazing goats in order to evaluate its effects on milk yield and quality, and to investigate possible effects on goat health status. The hypothesis was that, by using a phytocomplex including plants known to exert an improvement of milk yield and milk quality, a synergism should be possible in order to obtain such effects using low doses, thus avoiding adverse effects. Milk fat was significantly (p
