“…Polyphenols and flavonoids, bioactive compounds found in the extract, are able to improve intestinal health, influence digestive processes and modulate the animal immune system and, consequently, may improve meat quality and poultry performance through reducing the lipid oxidation process by neutralizing oxidative stress. Diet supplementation with those bioactive compounds could drive similar or approximate results found when using performance-enhancing antibiotics (Lohmann et al, 2021).…”

“…One of these practices is the routine poultry use of low-dose antibiotics to manipulate the intestinal health of broiler chickens, enhancing nutrient absorption and assimilation, thus reducing feed costs, but which is also correlated with the development of bacterial resistance in humans. Thus, Lohmann et al (2021) aimed to assess the effects of guavira peel hydroethanolic extract (GPHE) on the performance and meat quality of broilers. Crescent concentrations of C. adamantium peel extract (0 to 500 mg/kg) were given to broilers in the finishing phase (from 21 to 42 days), and several parameters were assessed.…”

Guavira (Campomanesia adamantium, Myrtaceae) is a native fruit from the Brazilian Cerrado savanna and is socio-economically important for the indigenous and traditional people living in the Central-West. This is a bibliographic review of the biological properties of guavira and its derivatives, and, after discussing experimental studies, an interdisciplinary approach is conducted highlighting the im-portance of Agroforestry Systems as an ecological restoration tool to leverage the production chain of guavira while providing ecosystem services. Many research groups studied effects of polyphenols and other bioactive compounds and biological properties of this fruit and other plant parts such as antibiotic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-diarrheic and antitumoral activities, cardiovascular and hepatic protection and action against neuropathic pain. Besides, guavira by-products benefit poultry intestinal health, similarly to antibiotics added to their feed. Furthermore, several biotechnological products were found, like pulp flour, seasoning from the peel, sunscreen, and seed oil similar to olive oil with pharmaceutical and industrial potential. We conclude by emphasizing the importance of guavira for restoration and preservation of the threatened Brazilian Cerrado, and for the socio-environmental development of family agriculture. The same approach and study are welcome and necessary in other regions and domains worldwide having their native flora as means for a restorative end.

“…The latter investigators speculated that the low pH values of meat (primarily due to stress conditions before slaughter) seem to be responsible for the denaturation of protein myofibrils leading to low WHC in their study. Previously, Lohmann et al (2021) also reported that dietary guavira fruit (Campomanesia adamantium) peel extract (100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mg/kg feed) reduced thigh muscle redness 15 min after slaughter. It has widely been known that myoglobin is responsible for the redness values of meats.…”

“…In most situations, polyphenols derived from plant products are expected to prevent or minimize the oxidation of myoglobin into metmyoglobin. However, the antioxidative functions of plant-derived polyphenols are impaired by their low bioavailability (Lohmann et al, 2021). This may explain the absent effect of herbal products on broiler meats' physical and chemical aspects.…”

Herbal supplements have been researched for decades as a safe alternative to synthetic antioxidants. These natural supplements may help broilers enhance their meat quality, growth, and physiological circumstances. The phenolic compounds in herbal products can serve as antioxidants, thereby responsible for lessening the negative effect of stress before slaughter. One of the most critical factors impacting broiler meats' physical, chemical, and oxidative stability is stress before slaughter. Reducing stress levels during rearing may be anticipated to enhance broiler meat qualities. Some studies have found that herbal supplementation improves meat qualities, whereas others have no impact. The efficacy of herbal supplementation on meat characteristics may be determined by the nature and levels of herbal supplementation and the condition of the animals throughout the rearing. The use of plant-derived products in broiler production and their impact on carcass characteristics, physical and organoleptic qualities, chemical compositions, and oxidative stability of broiler meats are covered in this review.

“…Moreover, studies suggest that essential oils extracted from guavira fruit have antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans, and moderate activity against Escherichia coli (Coutinho et al, 2009;dos Santos et al, 2019). Lohmann et al (2021) observed that the dietary inclusion of 219 mg/kg of HEGP resulted in better feed conversion rate for broilers in the finishing phase. In this context, the use of natural additives in animal feed has become a feasible alternative to antibiotics because they protect the intestinal mucosa and favour digestion and absorption processes, which contributes to a balanced gut microbiota.…”

The dietary inclusion of hydroethanolic extract of guavira seed or peel was evaluated on broiler performance, intestinal morphometry, carcass yield, and meat quality. A total of 1,680 male chicks, one day old, were distributed in a 2×5+2 factorial design (hydroethanolic extract of guavira seed (HEGS) or hydroethanolic extract of guavira peel (HEGP); 100; 200; 300; 400 and 500 mg/kg of inclusion and a positive control (PC) with antibiotics and negative control (NC) without growth promoter), with seven replicates and 20 birds each. A better feed conversion ratio (FCR) was observed from days 1–7 and days 1–21 on the PC diet than on the NC diet. FCR from 1–7d of broilers on PC was better than those on HEGS or HEGP, and this better FCR was maintained until 21 d for the HEGS treatment. The HEGP diet showed lower average feed intake and better FCR for the total period compared to NC diets. Higher carcass yield and a higher L15 value for breast meat was observed in the HEGP group compared to HEGS. Broilers fed the PC diet showed a higher a* value 15 min and 24 h postmortem, higher water retention capacity in breast meat compared to birds fed HEGS, and a higher value of a* 24 h postmortem than those receiving NC. The inclusion of 100 to 500 mg/kg of HEGP or HEGS did not improve performance, intestinal morphometry, and carcass characteristics when compared to the performance-enhancing antibiotic. However, the HEGP diet provided better performance of broilers than the non-use of growth promoter additives in the diet.
