Effects of dietary inclusion of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) powder on oxidative stress and cortisol concentration in goats during pregnancy and onset of postpartum

Abstract: Oxidative stress is a chemical stress caused by imbalance between the production of free radicals and the ability of organisms to absorb their excess. It is extremely dangerous because affected animals may not exhibit physical symptom(s). It induces a stress with cellular damage that if not adequately restored by antioxidant makes the organism sensitive to serious degenerative disorders. Against this background, a study on oxidative stress in Kalahari Red (KR), West African Dwarf (WAD) and KalaWAD goats fed gr… Show more

“…It should be stressed that the supplementation’s effect may depend on the goat breed. Amosu et al [ 55 ] and Oderinwale [ 56 ] proved this regarding overall growth performance during the gestation period and oxidative stress and cortisol concentration, respectively, after adding turmeric powder to the diet. Moreover, it should be stressed that the goats used in the study were clinically healthy.…”
