    Summary

    Poultry diseases can impair immune defenses and increase vitamin needs. Supplementing vitamins, especially A and K, may aid recovery from specific infections like coccidiosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Poultry Nutrition
    • Animal Health
    • Veterinary Medicine

    Background:

    • Dietary vitamin deficiencies compromise poultry immune function.
    • Diseases increase poultry's vitamin requirements, impacting health.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review literature on disease-vitamin interactions in poultry.
    • To identify specific vitamin-disease relationships and their practical implications.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of interactions between poultry diseases and vitamins.
    • Analysis of studies involving viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections.

    Main Results:

    • 86% of bacterial disease studies showed positive vitamin interactions.
    • 82% of parasitic infestation studies indicated vitamin interactions.
    • Vitamin A and K showed significant interactions with bacterial and parasitic diseases, respectively.

    Conclusions:

    • Standard vitamin levels in poultry feed likely meet increased needs during most diseases.
    • Supplementation of specific vitamins (e.g., A, K) may aid recovery in severe cases.
    • Further research is needed on specific nutrient requirements during disease.
