The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Glutamine Delivery Under Salmon Heat Stress | Ep. 76
Aug 31, 2026In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we examine how thermal stress reshapes Atlantic salmon metabolism and why glutamine supplementation may fail under high temperatures. Rising water temperatures increase energy demands, while rapid nutrient absorption can limit effective utilization. Feeding frequency, amino acid delivery, and intestinal adaptation emerge as critical considerations for functional nutrition strategies. Listen now on all major platforms!
Inspired by the 2024 article titled "Effects of Glutamine Supplementation on Atlantic Salmon Salmo salar Metabolic Performance at High Temperatures" by Nuic, B. 2024
