The recently published article, “Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice” reviews how stress impacts aquaculture species, causing growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage. It emphasizes nutritional intervention as a key strategy to mitigate these effects. Unlike traditional studies focusing on single stressors, the paper highlights real-world scenarios where multiple stressors overlap, requiring synergistic nutrient approaches. Stress nutrition is defined through essential nutrients, conditional essentials, and gut microbiota regulation, with dynamic adjustments based on stress type. The review synthesizes current progress, challenges, and future prospects, aiming to reduce stress-related losses and improve aquaculture sustainability. A valuable read indeed.
