The science and practice of animal nutrition focuses on the dietary needs of food-producing, companion, or service animals. It is concerned with the preparation or formulation of feed for boosting the growth, health and performance of these animals. The main components of dietary food of an animal are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Animal nutrition aims to analyze the feed and the needs of the animal for optimal utilization of nutrition in the diet. Metabolism refers to all the chemical reactions involved in maintaining the living state of the cells and the organism. For understanding metabolic disorders in animals, an analysis of the relationship among energy metabolism, endocrinology, and immunology must be carried out. The topics covered in this extensive book deal with the core aspects of animal nutrition and metabolism. It will also prove to be immensely beneficial to agricultural advisers, animal nutritionists, and animal feed manufacturers.
