Video: The Emerging Role of Monoterpenes in Pig Stress Management - Dr. Ashley Wagner
Welcome to a new episode of The Swine Health Blackbelt Podcast. Today, Dr. Ashley Wagner takes us on an enlightening journey into the promising world of monoterpenes. These plant-derived compounds are emerging as a potential game-changer in managing swine health, particularly in stress management. As we explore this ever-evolving area, Dr. Wagner delves into the many sources of monoterpenes, their mechanisms of action, and their potential impact on the swine industry. Also, she gives us insights into how these compounds modulate brain signaling related to stress, how they're influencing serotonin and GABAergic systems, and how these effects could lead to better performance in pigs.
