ABSTRACT
Research in the field of animal nutrition has recently begun to pay more attention to biologically active substances in plants, calling them Phytobiotics for growth and health and disease management of animals.
Phytobiotics are plant derived products added to feed for their beneficial effect on gut, immunity, health, growth and performance. Phytobiotics from Garlic, Pepper, Neem, Turmeric, Ginger etc, have been used as plant doctors to treat ailments since time immemorial. These seem to be substituting the antibiotics with better treatment efficiency and zero side effects.
The beneficial effect of these Phytobiotics can be attributed to activation of feed intake, secretion of digestive juices and enzymes, immunity enhancement, anti oxidant , anti inflammatory and anti microbial (viral, bacterial, protozoan etc) properties.
These Phytobiotics have influenced the economics of production too attributing to a 30% reduction in production costs, management friendly with a safe environ for the animal and its end consumer the human.
