“…Other studies did not find any significant effect of turmeric supplementation at the rate of 1.0 g/kg (Rahmatnejad et al, 2009) or 2.0 g/kg (El-Hakim et al, 2009) on carcass production. Also, Ürüşan and Bölükbaşı (2017) reported that adding turmeric did not affect the carcass yield. Turmeric also improves liver and bile functions through increased bile secretions, protects the stomach from ulcers and reduces liver toxins.…”

he present study was designed to investigate the effect of curcumin, anise seeds levels and their interactions on growth performance European Production Efficiency Factor, carcass criteria and some blood parameters of quails. One hundred sixty-two, one day old of Japanese quails were randomly assigned in (3×2) factorial design. Three curcumin levels (0, 100, 200 mg/kg) and two ground anise seeds levels (0, 1%) in six treatments of 27 chicks each (three replicates of 9 chicks, each) were used. Body weight and feed intake were recorded weekly. Body weight gain and feed conversion were calculated at the end of the experiment (42 day of age). Carcass criteria and some blood constituents were measured throughout the experiment. The results showed the main effect of curcumin didn't affect body weight, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, European Production Efficiency Factor and European Broiler Index. Numerically, all the previous parameters were improved by supplementation of curcumin or ground anise seeds. Concerning with the interactions between the two medical herbs, the results showed that quails fed curcumin at level of 200 mg/kg plus 1% ground anise seeds diet achieved significantly (P<0.05) higher body weight, body weight gain and feed intake during the period from 0-14 days of age compared to the control. From the current experimental results, we can recommend supplementing diets with curcumin at level of 200 mg/kg and ground anise seeds at level of 1% to improve growth performance.

Since the banning of antibiotics in animal feeds (2006), there has been an increase in the number of studies looking for alternatives to stimulate the gut immune system. The main objective of our review article is to underline the nutraceutical properties of Curcuma longa and Spirulina platensis in the broiler chicken industry, and the experimental data were obtained by analyzing literature sources. Spirulina platensis is widely recognized as a valuable protein source, containing approximately 55–70% protein, 25% carbohydrates, essential amino acids, and 18% fatty acids. It is also rich in various vitamins like thiamin, riboflavin, pyridoxine, vitamin B12, vitamin C, gamma-linolenic acid, phycocyanins, tocopherols, chlorophyll, beta-carotenes, carotenoids, exhibiting positive effects on growth performance, gut integrity, and immunity. The anti-inflammatory effect of spirulina supplementation at different levels showed a decrease in caspase-3 and the TNF-α immunolabeling index; a reduction in IL-1β, IL-2 and IFN-γ; and an increase in the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4. Spirulina inhibits the synthesis of cytokines IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-gamma in addition to the activities of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) enzymes. Turmeric also positively influences the growth, egg production, and overall health of chickens. Curcumin, the most potent component of turmeric, possesses additional pharmacological activities, including hepatoprotective, immunostimulant, and anticancer effects. Its immunomodulatory properties greatly enhance the immune system response, acting as a natural antibiotic against pathogens and decreasing levels of proinflammatory interleukins IL-1β, IL-6, IL-2, IL-18, and TNF-α.
