Dr. Rostoll Cangiano shared insights on the importance of early-life feeding of these products to shape intestinal microbial colonization and their potential to enhance immune responses, including against respiratory diseases. Tune in for a comprehensive discussion on the varied effects and benefits of these microbial products in animal health.
