Abstract

Feed intake is the first step of digestion and absorption, and also the precondition of growth and development for animals. Dietary nutrients imbalance not only reduces feed intake or affects animal performance and immune function, but also leads to allotriophagia. In all nurients, dietary amino acid level is particularly important to regulate feed intake. This article has briefly reviewed the effects of leucine, tryptophan, histidine and glutamic acid on feed intake regulation, as well as their central and peripheral mechanisms.[Chinese Journal of Animal Nutrition, 2011, 23(6):908 -913]
