• Effect of dietary dried oregano leaves supplementation on performance and carcass characteristics of growing lambs (2005, background): “Due to its antimicrobial properties, oregano has been examined as an alternative growth promoter in broiler chickens (Tsinas and Spais, 1999; Botsoglou et al., 2002; Cross et al., 2002; Demir et al., 2003; Lewis et al., 2003), broiler turkeys (Bampidis et al.”
• The effect of herbs and their associated essential oils on performance, dietary digestibility and gut microflora in chickens from 7 to 28 days of age (2007, background): “However, no effect of Orego-Stim or oregano has been reported on performance in growing broilers (Botsoglou et al , 2002 ; Lewis et al , 2003 ), or turkeys between 12 and 16 weeks of age (Papageorgiou et al , 2003 ).”
• Response of broiler chickens in terms of performance and meat quality to garlic (Allium sativum) supplementation. (2009, result): “The relative growth-promoting effects of garlic in this study buttress earlier reports of Demir et al. (2003) and Lewis et al. (2003) and that body weight gain was improved in broiler chickens fed low concentrations of commercial garlic products.”
• Use of an antibiotic growth promoter and two herbal natural feed additives with and without exogenous enzymes in wheat based broiler diets (2007, background): “Many herbs and their bio-active constituents possess a broad antimicrobial activity (Dorman & Deans, 2000; Kamel, 2001; Tucker, 2002; Cross et al., 2003; Lewis et al., 2003).”
• Effect of garlic powder on performance and lipid profile of broilers (2012, background): “Lewis et al. (2003) [7] showed that addition of plant extracts to broilers’ diet has some effects on performance and microbial activity of intestinal tract but, none of them were significant.”
• The effect of garlic (Allium sativum) on growth and immune responses of hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus x Oreochromis aureus) (2007, background): “However, body weight gain was improved in broiler chickens fed low concentrations of commercial garlic products (Lewis et al., 2003 and Demir et al., 2003).”
• Effect of Periodically Use of Garlic (Allium sativum) Powder on Performance and Carcass Characteristics in Broiler Chickens (2010, background): “Lewis et al. [20] showed that addition of plant extracts to broilers' diet has some effects on performance and microbial activity of intestinal tract but, none of them were significant.”
