Abstract

Abstract Poultry production significantly contributes to bridging the food gap worldwide. Several nations have limited the usage of antibiotic growth promotors due to bacterial resistance to antibiotics and the occurrence of residual antibiotics in the edible tissues of birds. The world is now turning to using natural alternatives to increase poultry production as well as birds’ resistance to diseases. Withania somnifera (WS; family: Solanaceae) is a precious medicinal herb utilized in several countries due to its distinct chemical, medicinal, and physiological properties. This plant has antioxidant, anti-aging, antimicrobial, antitumor, hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, antistress, and growth-promoting activities. In poultry, the dietary inclusion of WS revealed a promising result in enhancing productive performance, increasing disease resistance, reducing stress effects, and maintaining the bird’s health. Thus, the current review highlights the morphological features, distribution, chemical structure, and pharmacological features of Withania somnifera as a growth promoter herb for farming broiler chickens.
藜草在肉鸡养殖中的促生长作用
摘要家禽生产大大有助于缩小世界范围内的粮食缺口。由于细菌对抗生素的耐药性以及鸟类可食用组织中残留的抗生素,一些国家限制了抗生素生长促进剂的使用。现在,世界正转向使用天然替代品来提高家禽产量和鸟类对疾病的抵抗力。紫苏(WS;科:茄科)是一种珍贵的草药,由于其独特的化学、药用和生理特性,在许多国家都有使用。该植物具有抗氧化、抗衰老、抗菌、抗肿瘤、护肝、心脏保护、神经保护、免疫调节、抗糖尿病、抗应激和促进生长的活性。在家禽中,WS的饮食摄入在提高生产性能、提高抗病能力、减少压力影响和保持鸟类健康方面显示出有希望的结果。因此,目前的综述重点介绍了作为肉鸡生长促进剂的紫薇的形态特征、分布、化学结构和药理学特征。
