Description
Xin Du, Xue Ma, and Yang Gao review the natural compound squalene and its uses in animal farming in this paper, published in 2023. Squalene is an oily substance found in shark liver and in many plant seeds. It is known for calming swelling and for fighting harmful oxygen forms in the body. The review pulls together what is known about those body effects. It then asks how the compound could serve in feed for farm animals.
Uses in livestock and poultry are the practical focus of the piece. The authors weigh the evidence for health gains in those settings. They also note where the proof is still thin. The goal is to give a base for deeper work on squalene in husbandry. Reviews like this help feed makers judge a trendy additive. The paper covers sources, body roles, and farm prospects in turn.
