Abstract
The invention relates to livestock feed compositions and methods for producing food products of improved nutritional quality from the livestock. Specifically, in one embodiment, feed compositions comprising whole flaxseed and dietary grit, and further comprising menhaden oil, soybean oil, and vitamin E, can be used to produce chicken eggs with improved essential fatty acid and vitamin E contents. The eggs so produced score favorably when compared to control eggs in taste tests. Furthermore, there is no reduction in egg production from the chickens fed a diet of the compositions disclosed.
