Effects of replacing soybean oil with palm oil on growth performance, appetite, and gut health in weaned piglets
Moderate PO replacement (25%) balances growth promotion and digestibility, while high replacement (100%) improves gut barrier function and appetite. PO regulates growth via fatty acid composition, appetite-related genes, and gut microbiota.
