#41 - Exploring Different Lipid Sources for Broiler Feeds: Challenges and Benefits - Dr. Sandor Zsarnoczay

Even though the lipids in broiler feeds may be overlooked sometimes, they are an essential aspect of poultry nutrition due to their significant impact on the growth and health of the birds. Indeed, the ratio of different types of fats, such as saturated and unsaturated, can affect the  metabolism and body composition of the animals. In this episode, Dr. Sandor Zsarnoczay discusses his experience working with different lipid sources and fatty acid profiles, along with the differences between saturated and unsaturated ratios, their effects on bird performance and health, and the challenges of working on that.
“I think it pays off to have a deeper understanding of the saturated and unsaturated fatty acid ratios of our dietary energy sources." - Dr. Sandor Zsarnoczay
