Several supplements have been evaluated to identify the most suitable products and the best mode of delivery. The results of trials on the effects of these supplements differ and there is still a dearth of information on the mechanisms responsible for the effects of these products. In this review, we present an overview of the effects of early-age nutrition and discuss various methods of delivering supplements with emphasis on ongoing studies at the University of New England. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | RAAN 2007: Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition in Australia, Armidale, Australia, 9th - 11th July, 2007 | Source of Publication: | Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition in Australia, v.16, p. 179-183 | Publisher: | University of New England | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | ISSN: | 0819-4823 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 070204 Animal Nutrition | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 830309 Poultry | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/28256307?selectedversion=NBD44497120 |
