2018, Vet, Growth Promotion, Feed, Water, panel, prescription
27
How do AGPs get us to sweet spot
Reduced Pathogenic Bacteria Increase in beneficial bacteria Less nutrient competition Increased nutrients for growth and egg production Less inflammation / maintenance energy Improved digestion and absorption

29
_, _, and _ _ are all related
Nutrition, Microbiota, Immune Function
30
Balancing Act between _ and _ _, _ microbiota promote digestion, produce nutrients, and strengthens gut barriers, _ pathogens trigger immune response and inflammation and can damage gut lining and reduce nutrient absorption
microbiota, immune function, beneficial, opportunistic
