In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how yeast-based additives can help reduce gut inflammation caused by high soybean meal diets in juvenile Atlantic salmon. Learn how beta-glucan and yeast extracts impact tissue recovery, immune modulation, and gene expression. Find out what the data says about dosing and long-term performance. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2025 article titled "Brewers’ Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Purified Functional Feed Additives Mitigate Soybean Meal‐Induced Enteritis in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Parr" by Momoh, T. A., et al.
