• It is concluded that dietary supplements with black pepper or coriander seeds or their combinations enhanced the performance and health status of broiler chickens. [ Abou-Elkhair, R et al. “Effects of black pepper (piper nigrum), turmeric powder (curcuma longa) and coriander seeds (coriandrum sativum) and their combinations as feed additives on growth performance, carcass traits, some blood parameters and humoral immune response of broiler chickens.” Asian-Australasian journal of animal sciences vol. 27,6 (2014): 847-54. doi:10.5713/ajas.2013.13644] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4093167/ • “It can be concluded that black pepper can be used in diets for laying hens as phytogenic additive without harming the performance. However, this inclusion causes a reduction in eggshell percentage and an increase in the level of triglycerides in the bloodstream.”-[ Melo, Ramon Duque, Cruz, Frank George Guimarães, Feijó, Julmar da Costa, Rufino, João Paulo Ferreira, Melo, Lucas Duque, & Damasceno, Jessica Lima. (2016). Black pepper (Piper nigrum) in diets for laying hens on performance, egg quality and blood biochemical parameters. Acta Scientiarum.
