As a result, olive trees produce some of the most powerful natural antioxidant molecules known, such as hydroxytyrosol and oleanolic acid, to neutralise the free radicals created as a result of this harsh environment.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, we will see how olive extracts can improve the growth of broiler chickens, achieving the same results as a diet containing monensin.<\/p>\n<p>The positive results of olive extracts appear to be due to powerful antioxidant molecules (triterpenes and polyphenols), which, like almost all natural antioxidants, have good anti-inflammatory properties.<\/p>\n<p>Olive extracts are therefore emerging as a valuable ally against oxidative stress in animal production, whether caused by heat stress, chronic diseases or fast-growing breeds that are highly sensitive to stress.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the article.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-button-wrapper\"><style>.fusion-body .fusion-button.button-1{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0032579119578439?via%3Dihub\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">Access to the article<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear colleagues, This week we have chosen an article that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7830,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1060,1036],"tags":[924,1111,1078,1291,1238,1301,1300,1297],"class_list":["post-7831","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-natural-ingredients","category-poultry-farming","tag-animal-nutrition","tag-antioxidant","tag-chickens","tag-natural-ingredient","tag-nature","tag-olive-extracts","tag-olive-tree","tag-oxidative-stress"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7831","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7831"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7831\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7833,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7831\/revisions\/7833"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7830"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7831"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7831"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7831"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
