Growth performance and antioxidant response of broiler chicken fed oxidized lipids with or without phytogenic feed additives

Key Points

• Growth performance improves with phytogenic feed additives, showing better weight gain and feed efficiency.
• Broiler chickens exhibited significant antioxidant response when oxidized lipids were included in their diet.
• Assessment using growth trials and blood parameters revealed the effects of feed additives over a specified time.
• Implications suggest that the inclusion of phytogenic additives may optimize chicken growth but requires further investigation.
