#57 – Vitamin A: uncovering its effects on swine – Dr. Sarah Elefson

Vitamin A plays a vital role not only when it comes to the vision, but also to the immune and reproductive systems of swine, thus contributing to the overall health and performance of the animals. However, its precise effects remain a subject of ongoing research. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Sarah Elefson about her study that examines the impact of fat inclusion levels, fat sources, and supplementations with either vitamin A or beta-carotene on the performance, health, and vitamin status of pigs in the nursery and finishing phases.
