Extract

The nutritional benefits of consuming long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are predominantly found in oily fish, are well known but consumption of oily fish is declining. Poultry consumption, on the other hand, is increasing, but poultry meat is generally a poor source of long chain n-3 PUFA. The concentrations of the n-3 PUFA α-linolenic acid (LNA), EPA and DHA in poultry meat may be increased by feeding birds diets that are themselves rich in these acids. The objective of this study was to review the literature to determine what relationship if any there was between n-3 PUFA content in the diet and edible tissues of poultry.
