Nutrition and Immunity

نویسنده

چکیده

Nutrition has been known to impact animal immunity for some time, but recent data have demonstrated important impacts of the immune system on metabolism. This cross-talk, mediated by absorbed nutrients, intermediary metabolites, and inflammatory compounds, is especially prevalent during the transition to lactation. A clearer picture is emerging at the mechanistic level to explain why cows with metabolic disorders are more prone to infections and vice-versa. Nutritional strategies that control body condition in dry cows, provide adequate dietary antioxidants, and use bioactive nutrients to influence inflammatory signals can help to limit disease incidence during the transition period.
