The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Macronutrients Shape Tilapia Gut Health | Ep. 85

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how dietary macronutrients influence tilapia gut microbiota, intestinal health, and feed efficiency. Discover how alternative proteins, oxidized lipids, and carbohydrates affect beneficial microorganisms, disease resistance, and antibiotic interactions. Learn why precision feed formulation must consider intestinal health alongside growth performance to support sustainable tilapia production. Listen now on all major platforms!
