Stress is an abnormal response of the organism to external environmental stimuli. In the process of breeding production, animals will show various stress reactions due to changes in their physiological functions, environmental conditions, and management levels. Transportation, high temperature, cold, and other stressors could induce protective reactions in the animal body, showing obvious physiological metabolic disorders and non-specific immune dysfunction, disrupting the physiological processes of nutrient metabolism, digestion and absorption, and immune defense, and ultimately leading to a decrease in production performance and feed conversion rate.
Nutritional regulation is one of the most important ways to relief stress symptoms. Diet and nutrition are both factors leading to stress in animals and important means of regulating stress in animals. Animals will show a series of metabolic abnormalities under stressful conditions, such as reduced feed intake, poor digestion, and metabolic disorders, which in turn lead to nutrient deficiencies. Appropriate energy, protein, amino acids, and other nutrients increase the animal's antioxidant capacity, improve immune function, and thus improve the body's resistance to stress. Therefore, nutritional regulation of the animal body is an important means to reduce stress and improve production performance and economic efficiency.
