Abstract
Due to the public dissatisfaction of growth hormones to produce meat, farmers are forced to look for other methods of growing animals. Probiotics and prebiotics are said to increase digestion and feed efficiency in animals. Research suggests that implementing probiotics and prebiotics in animal diets can increase weight gain and animals to market weight without using antibiotics or hormones.
