Manage episode 382504019 series 3522875
The immune system, with its pivotal role in animal health, exerts a direct influence on growth, reproduction, milk production, and overall performance. This has given rise to immuno-nutrition, where dietary components are harnessed to enhance immune function. This approach is reshaping perspectives within the animal production sector, emphasizing the profound impact of diet on the well-being and productivity of livestock. In this episode, Dr. Melina Bonato delves into the intricate realm of animal nutrition, specifically focusing on ruminants. Dr. Bonato emphasizes the critical role of immuno-nutrition in optimizing ruminant health and production, covering topics such as the influence of nutrition on the immune system and the challenges associated with ruminal acidosis.
