Magnetized Water and Organic Acids Enhance Weights Gain, Lipid Parameters and Hematology Indices of Broiler Chickens

Abstract

Background: Imbalance of lipid profile and alteration of hematological indices in broilers are attributed to excessively deposition of fat in the tissue which reduces health status and leads to economic losses in poultry production. The intervention of natural products such as magnetized water, apple cider vinegar and date vinegar as alternatives may provide safer improvement of these traits than synthetic drugs. Aims: Investigating the impact of supplementation of magnetic water Organic Acids, body weight, lipid and hematological profile in broilers chicks. Results: The synergy of magnetized water with 0.5% date vinegar in G5 was significantly reduced cholesterol, triglycerides, low- and very low-density lipoproteins, while increased high-density lipoprotein, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, packed cell volume, total proteins, platelets, and improved leukocyte balance. In G2, magnetic water has moderately improved the lipid indices and percentages of leukocytes, whereas in G3 and G4, apple cider vinegar and date vinegar, respectively, have mainly lowered cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins. Conclusions: Intervention of magnetized water plus 0.5% date vinegar to the chickens has effectively improved body weight, lipid profile, and hematological indices in chickens. This treatment strategy may assist in boosting the cardiovascular function and overall productivity of chickens.
